Why My Blog is Not Earning Money from Adsense?

In a hope to earn dollars; many people start their blogging journey and dream to be a millionaire all of a sudden with minimal (or possibly no) effort in a magical way. However, a large chunk of such people fail to earn what they thought from their blogs through Google AdSense or any other ads related money making stream and become a part of hopeless army of internet.

What are the reasons for a blog failing to make any money? Why some bloggers fly in the skies but some others fail even to creep on earth? In this post; I am going to talk about some of the key reasons for a blog failing to earn money through Adsense.

Lack of Consistency

The biggest reason of failure of any blog in reaching to a level where it can generate revenue is the lack of consistency at the blogger side.


Remember that Rome was not built in a day. Same way; If a blogger thinks that overnight his blog with just a handful of posts will become a source of attraction for the entire world; that’s nothing but a mad’s dream.


The biggest secret of successful blogging is consistency and continuity in your blog postings. Blogs with regular updates not only become a prime choice of visitors but also manage to gain a good reputation (in terms of ranking) in the search engines which results in a grown stream of traffic from organic, direct as well as referral means.


Whatever is the subject area you are blogging in; write on different ideas revolving around it with a focus on the keywords that you are targeting.


Your blog should be a mix of a variety of content types to attract people with varying tastes. It should have text based posts as well as relevant pictures, videos etc. so that It becomes a strong ground on the subject area.


If you don’t work consistently on your blog and your blog becomes dormant; you will not only lose search engines ranking but also the trust of your blog visitors as no one likes out-dated stuff.

A Poor Idea

What you are blogging about matters. The idea at which your blog is based needs to be strong; relevant; innovative and catchy. Many people start a blog on some idea which doesn’t have a large potential visitor base and they end up getting very less traffic and fail to earn any money from the blog. Similarly; many people start blogging on some very generic idea where some major giants are already blogging and they fail to compete with such big names and end up like the voice of a kid in a crowd.


When deciding an idea for your blog; following questions are important:

• How unique is the idea?
• Who are the competitors already blogging on same idea?
• How to differentiate from the competitors?
• What is the niche? And what are futures prospects in that niche area?
• Who are the target audiences? Global or some region specific?

If you are targeting some specific region; keep this in mind that Adsense earnings will greatly depend on the region from where your blog is getting the traffic as Google displays ads to the visitors based on their interest and locality. Blogs targeting US, Europe audiences manage to earn more than those which target some third world countries.

Wrong Placement of Ads

Proper structuring of your blog and a clever approach for placement of Ads is crucial to get maximum clicks and impressions for your ads. Many people fail to earn good enough money from their blogs despite the fact that they have high traffic just because of wrong placement of Ads.


Ads must be placed in prominent locations in such a way that they don’t affect the readability of the blog but still manage to gain clicks.


Types of Ads to be placed in your blog are also important. A good mix of different ad types (e.g. leaderboard, Box ads, Link Ads etc.) should be considered keeping in mind the theme of your blog.

Youtube Earning Tips

Hundreds of thousands of videos are uploaded on youtube but only a chunk of that manages to attract the potential users and leads to earn dollars from that.

Getting traffic from social media platforms is also a key. Having associated social media pages and groups can bring a good much social traffic to your channel and can lead to higher adsense earnings.

Tips for Profile Creation on Freelancing Sites

So you plan to work online from home by winning projects on Freelancing sites instead of working in a typical company from 9 to 6? Let me tell you that the road is not very clear for you and competition is way tough than you think.
When there are hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of buyers bidding on a product being sold; the game goes in the hands of the seller and he sells it to the best possible rate. In a similar way, when someone is looking to outsource his work; he will try to find the most efficient and optimal resource for his job.
On freelancing sites; one post to a hundred candidates can be easily observed when you see number of bids to any project. Trend of working from home as a freelancer has increased manifold in the past few years due to various factors including time convenience, traditional job market saturation and cost effectiveness.
When there are thousands of people like you having their profiles on freelancing sites and are ready to offer their services to the clients at cheaper rates then what you need to do to differentiate and to make yourself shine in the pebbles?
Your profile is the actual face of you that your potential employers on freelancing sites are going to see. A good profile is the key to win good projects. What's a good profile and what are the key things to consider when creating a profile on freelancing sites? In this post, I am going to cover this for you.

Never keep your Freelancing Profile Incomplete:

If you can't complete your profile how can you complete the projects assigned to you!! When a potential employer goes through your profile and finds that It has been created just in a rush and is incomplete; he will simply consider you a non-serious freelancer who can't spend time to market himself even.

Regularly Update Your Freelancing Profile:

Your profile on freelancing sites should be regularly updated and if you think to sustain in the world of freelancing, update your profile the same way as you take care of your face and body. All your skills should be listed properly in the profile. If you have learnt some new technologies or some new skills have been added to your skill set, don't forget to add those. Any professional certifications that you have completed should also be added regularly in your profile.

Avoid adding Irrelevant Content to Your Profile:

Don't try to list those skills for which you are not confident enough to work practically. Remember that no one is a universal talent and there is a limit to the skill set that a person can has. So if your profile has a list of skills from very diverse areas then the employer will get confused about you. You must have a area of specialization and your skills listing should revolve around that. If you are a Android developer; having skills like article writing, SEO and Link Building don't make a sense on your profile.

Add Picture/Logo and Project Portfolio to your Profile:

Its better to have a profile picture or a logo as well. Being a professional, don't put such a picture in your freelancing profile which depicts you as a non-serious or immature lad.
Mention of your LinkedIn profile, details of your project portfolio and clear description of your past experience will add value to your profile.
