You can make money online with Google Adsense by writing less content. The key is having the right amount of content. Content is still king but sometimes it’s better to be the queen. Here’s a case study in which I am making money off a site with minimal content.
I came across a coupon for $1 .com’s at Godaddy (limit one). These coupons turn up once in a while and I never hesitate to buy a site because it’s almost impossible to not make your $1 back even with minimal content. At the very least I could sell the site for 20 times that based on a solid domain name alone. I quickly created the site in WordPress and set up the theme and the 15 pages I wanted for the site. I knew based on the subject of the site that 15 would cover all possible topics and I would go into detail on subtopics on each page.
I set up each page with the headings and page title so I had a basic framework for what I would be doing with the site. I threw some general keywords around in the sidebar and footer (things like “review”, “buy”, “where to buy”, etc). Then I wrote the content for the first page. I linked to it from some of my other sites and did a few directory and search engine submissions- very minimal link building. Then a few things came up with some of my other sites and I had no time/interest to complete the site. But something interestingly unexpected started to happen.
