Of course that depends on a number of factors, like what kind of website you own. If you are selling tangible products and you control your markup then you can make as much as is feasible from your set of constraints. If you drop ship items directly from the manufacturer or distributor then you are not constrained by inventory and employees. Your only constraint may be your ability to attract new customers. If your website is an affiliate website attracting customers to your site and sending them to another site for purchase or signup then you are dealing with a whole different set of problems. If your website is an informative website that attracts large numbers of people because of your content and you make your money from advertising, then you are dealing with other issues. Look for articles dealing with specific issues those types of websites face on this site. This article will deal with just how much money it is possible to make from advertising on a small niche site.

Small niche websites usually depend on advertising for revenue. Google.com has a terrific program called Adsense that targets the ads specifically to the content of your`website. This program works well because if the person came to your website to gather information then they are most likely interested in the ads that will be displayed by Google.com. This type of advertising works because you will only get paid when someone clicks on one of the ads on your site. A word of caution is in order here, never click on one of the ads displayed by google.com on your website this would violate the terms of your agreement and possibly cause your advertising contract to be terminated. When advertising is your source of revenue then you can understand why you wouldn’t want the contract terminated.

Alright finally to the answer to how much you can expect to make from your website. Let’s say that you have a website about Aruba and you attract 20,000 unique visitors per month and you have a good conversion rate of people who click on your ads. 2% is a pretty good conversion rate, so that would mean 400 people per month clicked on your ads. Take that 400 and multiply it by the amount you get paid per click. Some keywords like travel pay fairly decent per click but there is a lot of competition in that arena. So let’s say you get paid an average of .50 per click, 400 x .50 = 200.00 per month, not bad but it sure doesn’t pay enough to quit your job. What if you had 20 websites doing about the same amount of money as the first? 20 websites would do a number of things for you, first they would balance the load if one did poorly one month or was cut off by your advertiser for some reason you would have 19 more to fall back on. Having multiple sites is also a lot of work. You have to build content for 20 different sites every month tweak them and do redesigns every so often. Yes it’s just like having a full time job, and the truth is that any single website making 200.00 or more per month from Adsense has been around for a while and has great content that search engines that consumers are looking for. Having that type of great content takes time to build for just one website, let alone 20 or more websites.

My advice is don’t quit your day job just yet, maybe later but don’t get into this business thinking that you are going to make a living right away. Niche marketing takes specialized talents and tools. Successful marketers know how to attract visitors by using the correct keywords, and catering to the information surfers are looking for.
