In fact, there are many people who have succeeded in the world of online business, if the meaning of success is seen from how much income they earn each month. But from these many, there are only a few who are willing to share their knowledge of success to people who want to learn this online business. One of them is Sumbodo Malik. Founder of Kampung Blogger, in Menowo village, Magelang, Central Java.
This sharing will not tell about Sumbodo Malik who was nominated for SCTV Award in 2015, but about 2 'students' in Kampung Blogger named Zhee and Mba Dian. Actually, Sumbodo objects to the terms student and teacher, because according to him, all are study buddies. A good teacher is one who always feels the need to learn and share, not one who feels the most knowledgeable.
Hopefully readers can benefit from the story and tips from and mba Dian about how to start an online business 2.5 years ago and in the 3rd month already have an income of more than Rp 50 million. Even mba Dian can earn more than Rp 30 million in the first month.
Who is Zhee Innezta
Zhee Innezta is the name used on Facebook, while his real name is Sigit Prihastomo. A young man from Karang Gading Magelang village who after graduating from vocational school had a year of college, but preferred to return to his village and work odd jobs. Selling coconut ice was his choice.
Starting from 08.00 until Maghrib, Zhee opens her ice degan stall on Jl Jend. Sudirman. However, Zhee's interest in the online world makes her set aside her ice degan sales income of around 20-50 thousand/day to save and buy a used computer complete with a modem.
Armed with a used computer worth Rp700 thousand, Zhee started surfing the internet. Her dream was to be able to work from home and have a lot of income. Finally Zhee met the investment business. While continuing to sell ice degan, Zhee pursued the new world of online investment. And it turned out that this investment was a scam investment. So she stopped her online investment business.
Luckily, Zhee met Sumbodo Malik online. After finding out that they lived in the same city, Zhee decided to learn directly from Sumbodo Malik who was then known as a Google Adsense player.
Armed with 600 thousand rupiahs, Zhee went to Sumbodo Malik's house in Menowo Magelang and expressed her desire to learn how to create an Adsense blog. Then Sumbodo suggested to use the money to buy an aged domain. You know yourself, the price of a standard aged domain is around 25-35 dollars. Well, because the money was only enough to buy 2 domains, the hosting was piggybacked on Sumbodo Malik's hosting.
After that, start learning keyword research and posting. The simple steps taught by Sumbodo were immediately put into practice. That's what Zhee did continuously. Until finally at the end of the first month, her Google Adsense results were approximately Rp 2 million. Of course, this made her even more enthusiastic in learning to create a website for Adsense. In between selling coconut ice, Zhee continued to do keyword research and posting. In the second month, the results increased to more than Rp 9 million. Even in the third month, the results were more than Rp 50 million.
Of course, this is a very extraordinary result for a beginner. What did Zhee do to have such a large income in a short time? Before knowing the steps and tips and tools used to create an Adsense website/blog, let's also read about Ms. Dian's experience which was no less exciting when she started learning to blog.
Dian Firatpini
This 2nd sharing discusses the experience of a young mother with 1 daughter who is now 5.5 years old. Ms. Dian Firatpani started this adsense business without any online world background. Because she really intended to have additional income and did not want to go home from the office late at night like what she did at that time, Ms. Dian decided to learn online business. Coincidentally, her house was close to Sumbodo Malik, so accompanied by her husband, she came to Sumbodo's house to start learning.
It never crossed Ms. Dian's mind what Sumbodo Malik would teach her in starting to learn blogging for Adsense. But because Sumbodo said that the method was very simple, the important thing was to keep practicing, Ms. Dian finally wanted to learn.
"If I'm taught something difficult, my brain won't get it. So I ask to be taught the easiest thing. If the way to get money from Adsense is difficult, it's better not to learn it," said Ms. Dian when she was about to start learning.
After being taught how to find images and post, Dian felt confident that she could do it. It turned out to be really simple. Moreover, for her first blog, Dian's job was only to find images and post them, and she was assisted by Sumbodo's wife, Lia Amalia. Dian felt even more confident because she and Lia worked on her first blog. Since then, Dian's husband often took her home from work and went straight to Sumbodo's house, sometimes at 11 o'clock, sometimes at 1 a.m. His office itself often ended at 9-10 p.m. That's why Dian's husband often took her home after 10 p.m.
That's Ms. Dian's daily activities, trying to meet the target to be able to find around 100-150 images every day and post them. On holidays, the number of images searched can be doubled. Because at that time the work at the leasing company was very busy, so to do it, only during break times and after work. So during break times, Ms. Dian immediately ran to the town square near the office to find a wifi signal and started looking for images. If the signal in the town square is not good, move to the coffee toffee cafe.
When I got home, if the connection was bad, I would go straight to Sumbodo's house, even though it was closed, and I would knock on his door. I even came at 1 am and stayed there overnight.
Her hard work and determination paid off. The first month, after posting around 5000 images, her Adsense results reached more than Rp 30 million. Amazing, right? Ms. Dian herself couldn't believe it, just by looking for images and posting, she could earn so much.
That's it, finally mb Dian not only learned how to search for images and posts, but also began to be taught how to research keywords, because this is a very important step in creating a profitable website. If this step is not done correctly, of course the website created will not be optimal or even not produce anything at all.
Steps and Tips for Building a Website for Adsense
Want to know how to find images, post, research keywords, set up a blog so that it can generate so many dollars? Here I will describe the simple steps taken by Zhee and mba Dian.
Steps and Tips for Building an Adsense Blog:
- Search for Ideas
- Keyword research
- Search for content
- Post
- Fetching.
Once you have completed step 5, create a new blog, repeat step 1.
That's it? Yes..that's it. Why is there no SEO, backlinks or anything like that? Why do we always think that only 'complicated', sophisticated ways, requiring lots of tools can generate dollars? In fact, there are simple ways that can generate tens of millions per month. There are no secrets worth thousands of dollars. Just follow the simple steps above.
Yes, that's what Zhee and Mba Dian did, following the simple steps taught by Sumbodo Malik. And it's proven, the first month has already produced 2 million. You can also follow these simple steps. OK, let's start to dig up the steps they took.
1. Find Ideas
There are many websites that can be used to find ideas. When I first started learning, Zhee used Amazon to find topic ideas to create a website. Just click on the category section on Amazon, we will be able to find lots of topics that can be used. While Dian sometimes looks for ideas from EzineArticles.
For example, after opening Amazon in the category section there is home decor and we find 'living room' there, try exploring this keyword in several ways. First, we can see more details of this 'living room' on Amazon. There are sofas, table lamps, etc. This can be our Niche. Niche is like a topic but narrower.
Or we can also type the word living room on google.com. There will appear big websites on the first page. Choose one and visit the website. See, what categories are on the website. Choose that as our Niche. That's how to quickly find a niche in creating a website. Simple, right?
2. Keyword Research
Don't be allergic to the word Research. Remember, we will learn a simple method done by Zheedan mba Dian so it is guaranteed to be simple, it won't make our foreheads wrinkled to carry out the steps.
This time, we need a tool called Semrush. Oh my, it's paid. You must be thinking that way. It's called a business, so there must be capital out even if it's a little. Subscribe to Semrush Pro for $99.95/month (more than 1 million per month).
Simple way to use Semrush
Enter the keyword that has been selected earlier, for example we take the Sofa niche. Enter it into the keyword column in Semrush. Wait for the results to appear, there are around 10,000 keywords about sofas. Don't download it right away, there are steps that need to be taken.
First filter the existing keywords.
- CPC filter minimum $0.8 (CPC is the range of income that we will get every time someone clicks on an Adsense ad on our blog).
- Minimum Volume filter 100 (volume is the number of searches for that keyword each month)
- Maximum result filter 1,000,000 (result is the number of content results in all search engines (Google) that contain that keyword).
Please download the results in xls format. These keyword results still need to be entered into another tool to check the difficulty level of a keyword.
Enter the name of the result file from semrush and let the tool work. The results are in the form of data keywords Very Easy, Easy, Doable and so on. Collect keywords with Very Easy and Easy levels only, so that they are easy and fast to rank on Google.
Well, coincidentally, with the super expensive Semrush problem for online business people in Indonesia. The Kampung Blogger leadership took the initiative to create a tool with the combined functions above, namely:
- Getting keyword derivatives from the main keyword we are looking for, for example, the keyword sofa above, thousands to tens of thousands of related keywords appear.
- Displays data based on CPC, Volume and Result.
- Analyze keywords based on the level of optimization difficulty, such as Kitabida, to get keywords that are Easy and Very Easy.
Well, this SOFTWARE is specifically made to make things easier for fellow bloggers:
- No need to subscribe per month for millions of rupiah
- Has premium features like Semrush, Keywordtool, KeywordRevealer
- The price is very friendly, only 480,000/year, saving tens of millions of rupiah.
By knowing the ease, we can analyze keywords based on the level of optimization difficulty, such as we can get keywords that are Easy and Very Easy, so even if we are not good at optimizing articles/websites to appear on the first page of Google (SEO), it doesn't matter, like Zhee and Mbak Dian.
3. Search for Content
Now from the results of the keywords that have been researched using the tool, start looking for articles that discuss it, or also its images. Because this is a simple way for beginners, the website content can only be images, if using images only, the tips are:
- Search for images on google.com or Bing.
- Select a minimum size of 500x500
- Use Fastone tool to remove the metadata. If you don't have Fastone, just download it, don't be afraid, it's free.
OK, so is it okay to just use images for the content? Yes, that's right, for Zhee and Dian's first website, they only used images. But for the next websites, after they had the capital, they used English articles.
If using the tips article:
- You can use a translator like Bing Translator and Yandex.ru (Free), then correct the grammar using a Grammar correction application like Ginger. For example, if there is a German article, translate it to English, then correct the grammar.
- You can use an article reassembly (spin) application like WordAi.com to reassemble an article in the same language, but reassemble it with synonymous/similar words and change the sentence structure, but the meaning remains the same.
4. Post
After collecting some articles or images, start posting. Post articles and/or images every day. For articles, around 10 articles per day, for images it can be more than that. Do it for 1 month. Initially, it is better to increase it. Not tired? Yes, if you want to get a big income, a simple way, why don't you want to make a little effort.
5. Fetching
The last step is Fetching. This is also an important step, the goal is for the new posts we make to be indexed faster by Google. The way, we must first register with Google Webmaster Tools. Register the website we just created. After that, we can start fetching, by entering each url from each of our posts.
If you've been posting and fetching every day, what else do you do? Just make a new website...repeat the first step. That's it? Yup. Simple, right? And it's proven that the website that Zhee worked on generated around 2 million after 1 month, and 9 million in the 2nd month. After that, Zhee started making his 2nd website. And so on.
Keep Posting
Simple, right? Zhee, who just started learning how to create a website, in between her main activities selling coconut ice on the side of the road, can actually earn dollars in a simple way. Mba Dian, who has to look for a free wifi signal in the town square to post, can actually earn more than IDR 30 million/month. Keep posting articles regularly!
The main key to creating this website is in Keyword Research. Do keyword research properly, God willing the results will be seen immediately at the end of the first month. Of course we must be consistent in searching for images, posts etc. like Zhee and mba Dian did.
OK, now that we know what tools are used, namely EzKeyword.com and the simple steps for posting, then how do you actually set up the website? It was Sumbodo who set up the first website, so that Zhee and Mba Dian could focus on finding images and posting them.
Now let's ask Sumbodo Malik who set up their first website. And here is Sumbodo's explanation on how to set up a new website.
New Website Settings:
- Theme Selection
- Setting permalink
- Plugins
- Adsense code placement.
1. Theme Selection
For the theme used by Zhee and mba Dian, it is simple. According to Sumbodo, free themes from WordPress can also be used. Choose the one with 2 columns and the sidebar on the right. That's it, no need to edit anything. Remember, once again this is a simple way so that anyone can do it, including beginners who are not tech-savvy.
2. Setting Permalink
According to Sumbodo Malik, the best permalink is like this: http://domainname.com/%postname%/ And Zhee and Ms. Dian automatically follow this setting.
3. Plugins
What plugins are used?
- All In One SEO Pack
- SEO Alrp
- Akismet.
4. Adsense code placement
Actually there is no specific benchmark for this Adsense code. It's up to us, as long as we follow the advice from Google Adsense. The Adsense code used is sized: 728 x 90 under the title, and content 160 x 640 on the right sidebar.
Closing
From our two friends Zhee aka Sigit Prihastomo and mba Dian, we can see that to start learning to earn income from Google Adsense, you don't need fancy knowledge, or complicated theories with language that is difficult for beginners to understand. As long as we have serious intentions, follow the instructions taught, even though it seems very simple and don't give up easily, God willing, it will give good results. Hopefully, friends can benefit from the experiences of our two friends. And don't forget, if you have succeeded, share it with other friends.
Good Luck!
