Anybody who is keen to master the net and get their Internet marketing startup running at a profit will have thought about using Google Adsense.

The basic technique is not difficult to grasp. You create a page on your website with some original content around your chosen keywords, you add some Adsense ads, and then you promote your page by, among other things writing articles and blogs around those same keywords.

Trouble is, the big earning keywords are all being chased by between millions of other people, at least according to the results from a quick Google search. Take the word "internet". I have just typed it into Google, without inverted commas, and found that there are 2,020,000,000 results... :-0

That number is so big I don't think I can say it, let alone compete for a share of Adsense revenue on that particular keyword!

Everybody will tell you that you that you'd be crazy to choose "internet" as your key word and go up against billions of competitors. After all, far from being able to master the net and dominate your niche, your miserable little Internet marketing startup site barely attracts two original visitors per day. And one of those is you checking your site from your home computer. The other is you checking your site from your work computer when the boss is out of the office.

But wait a minute...

How many of those results are really worth anything? How many does Google really rate?

Let's fiddle about and see if we can't improve our chances...

How about this?

Go to Google, type in "internet" and check out the huge number of results it pulls up. Now click on the "Preferences" link to the right of the search box. Scroll down the "preferences" page until you come to the section named "number of results". Click on the drop down box and change it so that it reads "Display 100 results per page". Scroll back up the page and click the "Save Preferences" button. When you do that you'll be taken back to the Google search page.

Now, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the tenth page of listings beneath the Goooooooooogle logo. Normally you'd be taken to listings 91-100, but now that you have changed your preferences you will be taken to listings 910-1,000...

...Or will you?

When I arrived on that page I was shown a list of the 910th-942nd sites only. A statement beneath the 942nd read:

"In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 942 already displayed. If you like, you can repeat the search with the omitted results included."

Er, no thank you, I won't be needing to see all the "omitted results" which are "very similar to the 942 already displayed" thank you very much. The fact is that 2,019,999,058 of the 2,020,000,000 sites are JUST PLAIN JUNK that are NOT rated at all by Google.

So, my dear Internet marketing newbie, all you have to do now is write some original content on the subject of the Internet, place it on your site along with those Google Adword ads, upload your site, and then start writing fascinating articles and blog posts all about the Internet, and point them all back to your site and in short order you will find your website somewhere above 942/2,020,000,000 place on Google and attracting more traffic than just you in your working and domestic capacities!

So, next time you find a nice lucrative keyword or keyword phrase which Google Adsense pays out several dollars or more per click on, don't be afraid to go out and compete for it, provided you can commit yourself to creating well original content for your site, your blog and the numerous article directories around the Internet. You will soon find your site appearing on the top ten pages with fewer than 1,000 sites to compete against and you will come to believe that yes, your Internet marketing startup really can dominate any niche and master the net!
