1. Cluttering your blog with ads
You might think that by putting as much advertisements as possible, your blog will generate more profit. That is wrong. I�ve seen many new blogger putting ads all over their blog. They put banners above the fold. They also put smaller banners in their blog sidebar and footer. Moreover, they put AdSense code in their content, sidebar, footer, and header. Will it make them more money? The answer is not. By cluttering your blog with ads, you will only give bad user experience for your readers. In the end, you will lose your traffic and you�ll lose your profit as well.
2. Non-profitable topic
Blogging in the wrong niche is another way to kill your blog profit quickly. Do you blog in a good niche that will bring you good profit? If the answer is no, then you have to change your niche right now. It will only waste your time if you keep blogging on non-profitable topic, simply because it won�t give you any income at all.
3. Posting irrelevant blog posts
Stick with what you�re blogging about. By posting irrelevant blog post, you are cluttering your blog with irrelevant content. In this way, your readers will become confused with your blog. They will ask: �What�s the point of this blog?� And slowly but surely you�ll lose your readers. To avoid this, keep posting relevant posts to your blog to engage your blog readers and increase your traffic.
4. Anonymity
Let your name be known as the author of your blog. Anonymity will only give a bad air for your blog. It will only create distrust that will lead you to less profit. If your readers don�t know about you, how can you suppose to sell products to them? You need to build trust in order to sell your products effectively, and by becoming an anonymous blogger, you can�t build the trust required to generate good profit from your blog.
5. Being a stand-alone blog
Join the blogging community. Connect with other bloggers. Don�t be a stand-alone blogger because if you�re blogging, you have to actively connect your blog with other blogs in order to drive more traffic to your blog. Remember this: without traffic, you can�t generate any profit from your blog. However, you can�t generate good traffic to your blog if you don�t connect your blog with other blogs.
6. No mailing list
If you want to generate more profit from your blog, you have to build a mailing list. This is the place where you do your full promotion. You�re killing your profit if you don�t have a mailing list for your blog.
7. Bad monetization strategy
Are you planning to monetize your blog with various banners, AdSense, and text ads? This is a bad monetization strategy. A better strategy would be to focus your promotion on a single channel, such as AdSense only or affiliate marketing only. In this way, you can get better result with your monetization plan. It will also prevent you from cluttering your blog with unnecessary ads. The key is to focus on single promotion strategy.
Those are 7 things that will crush your blog profit. If you do the 7 things above, you won�t be able to make good money from your blog, so avoid doing those things in your blog.
Every once in a while, it makes sense to take a step back from your SEO efforts and take a look at your SEO strategy from a bird�s eye view. It�s so easy to get lost in the day to day minutia of running your company, building links, fulfilling customer orders, writing emails, creating blog posts and so on that we don�t actually step back and look at whether or not our strategy is optimal.
What are your goals for the website in general? Before addressing SEO specifically, take a step back and look at your overall goals.
Anchor text density is often a balancing act between having enough density that Google knows what your page is about, without so much density that Google thinks you�re link spamming.
How your internal links are currently setup? Is the system out of date? Now might be the time for an update.
Take a look at your traffic logs and see what kinds of keywords are actually sending you traffic. This will tell you a few things.
Any time you make a fundamental change to the way your site operates, make a note of it. Any time you change your internal linking structure or implement a new linking strategy, make a note of it. Any time you change a title tag, make a note of it.
