Google Adsense Profit Trends
January has to be about the worst month for any kind of business, except weight loss. Building a Google Adsense business is no exception to this rule. I was shocked when my Adsense revenues went from several dollars per day to just pennies per day in the first couple of weeks in January. I was getting pretty worried about it until I started to think about the logic behind it:
Adsense and Adwords revenue is generated from companies advertising their products through Google and consumers clicking on those ads.
From a company’s advertising perspective, most of their sales are made in November and December. Those are the months that make or break their profits for the year, and those are the months that the majority of their advertising budget is spent. January is one of the worst months of the year for sales, which logically would result in the companies spending much less on advertising.
Google charges for and displays ads based on the highest paying and highest quality ads given the best exposure. With the month of January having much fewer companies spending money on advertising, lesser quality and lesser paying ads are displayed. This pretty much guarantees much lower paychecks for those who make money from Adsense on their websites.
From a consumer’s point of view, what entices them to click on an Adsense ad is the product of the ad being something they are looking for, and the ad being high quality advertising, thus enticing them to take a closer look.
