How Long Takes to Earn First 100 Dollars from Adsense – Simple Calculation
After you have successfully joined the Google Adsense program, the next
target for most of us is to reach the payment threshold 100$. When I started
blogging and joined Adsense back in 2008, this was the question I asked in so
many places on the internet. But I couldn’t find correct answer. Even now, it
is difficult to predict and confirm the formula to make your first 100 dollars
from Adsense. Because the earning from Adsense is completely different for
every blog, topic, traffic source and country of the visitors. I have decided
to put a simple formula which may give some ideas to understand how long you
may take to earn your first 100 dollars.

Wow,
that’s a big number.
In my experience Google Adsense is one of the best program to make money
from blogs till you become pro blogger to create your own product or start
affiliate marketing. Getting the first payout 100 dollars is the very painful
period for any bloggers. It took 29 months to reach 100 dollars in year 2010
for me ( Yes, I had some gaps in my blogging life), but now in 2014 my Adsense
earning is far better.
Ok, Lets go to the point. This is just an average
calculation with assumption. None of the Adsense publishers are allowed to
publish their details stats like RPM, CPC and CTR publicly which is against
Google Adsense TOS.
There are three important factors
involved in our below calculation which are CTR ( Click Through Rate), Page
CPM( Cost Per Mile). RPM
is new factor ( Revenue Per Mile), but
we are not going to talk about it here. Each factor directly impact the final
Adsense Earnings. We are not considering CTR in this calculation, but I
can say if you can increase your current CTR rate, that will boost the final
earnings.
So, its all with CPM we are going
to take here. Adsense CPM indicates how much you earn from every 1000 page
impressions with Adsense ads (no matter how many ads on them)
So, if you earn 5$ from 2500 page impressions, your CPM
is,
(5/2500)*1000 = 2$
You earn 2$ from every 1000 impressions.

Here is the point, I can’t tell how
much is the best CPM, it completely depends on your blog niche and traffic
source.
In my experience and what I read
from other blogs, 1.5$ to 2.5$ will be an ordinary CPM currently.
If its less than 1$, then you
should improve and concentrate on increasing Google adsense income.
If you are getting around 3$ to 5$
CPM continuously every month, then you doing well, if it is more than 5$, then
it is a great CPM rate.
In our case, we will take 2.5$ as average eCPM and to make the calculation easy, we will do it for
first 105 dollars.
So, with 2.5$ eCPM to earn 105 dollars, you need 42,000
page impressions.
(1000/2.5)*105 = 42,000
This figure can be less or more for
you, because it depends on type visitors, source of traffic and country of
origin which make these impressions.
So, lets go to the next step.
When a visitor visits your blog, he
or she checks average 1.5 pages on a blog.
To get 42,000 page impressions, you need
28,000 visitors.
(1/1.5) * 70,000 = 28,000
Again, this 28,000 visitors
can be from direct, referral, social networking and search engines sources.
Mostly the search engine traffic
users (who come from Google, Bing and Yahoo search) will be useful for any CPC
programs including Google adsense. Because they are the new users and will
possibly click the ads on your website. Your regular visitors and social
networking users may not be interested on the ads showing up in your blog.
65% to 75% search engine traffic will be healthy for a blog in my opinion. In this
example, we will take 70%.
So, in 28,000 visitors, you need 70% of organic
traffic, which is 19,600 visitors
(70/100)*28,000 = 19,600 visitors from
Search Engines
Wow,
that’s a big number.
Now you can get rough idea based on
your average CPM (Also called RPM) and daily search engine traffic to know when
you will get the first 100 dollar adsense check.
I have updated few numbers and CPM
rates now. Because in my
opinion, the potentially of making more money from Google Adsnese has been
improved since 2010. There are lot of competitions and bidding among
advertisers in Google Adwords market place. That enables bloggers like us to
get higher earnings because of higer CPC ( Cost per Click).
If you are getting 100 average
daily search engine traffic visitors, then it may take around 6 to 7
months to get your first 100 dollar from adsense.
But one thing, Your blog will not be getting the same 100 daily search engine
visitors for next 6 months, it will increase when you update your blog with
unique content regularly. So, once you blog properly with correct techniques,
then you can reach 19,600 search engine visitors quickly and get your 100
dollars.
Finally, it all depended on your
adsense optimization to get high CTR, CPC and CPM, organic traffic and keyword
selection. But to know these techniques, it will take some time for new
bloggers.
If you think this calculation is
wrong, feel free to share the reason. Still if somebody is not making any money
from adsense after this much traffic, the contact me. I will try to help you.
Have a nice blogging.
very usefull one
