The Adsense Recipe Review
But personally, building a ton of websites just for the sake of slapping ads in them is not a good business model for me. I would rather build one authority site in a big niche (health, wealth, relationship, etc.) and focus all my efforts into generating a good amount of targeted traffic to it.
Here’s a couple of my opinions why Adsense is popular:
First, the concept is very simple to understand because you just build a website then put some ads on it. But the trick here is to start with a niche that has a high earning potential. Go to SpyFu.com and check out if the average cost per click for your niche is $1 and above (obviously the higher the better).
Second reason is the thought of having automated hands-off income. It’s really awesome that you won’t have to deal with customers in affiliate marketing but as my expertise grows, I’m getting more satisfaction from helping people get started with Internet marketing. Although I still build and have niche websites that provide me with automatic income.
The Adsense Recipe Review – Let’s Get on With It!
The Adsense Recipe is written by Cary Bergeron and obviously it will teach you about earning an income online by building Google Adsense sites. But when I watched the video on their sales page, I found out that the method for driving traffic to your sites is going to be Pay-per-click (PPC).
I’ve never seen any courses about Adsense but I believe majority of them will teach you how to get free traffic from Google. So hearing PPC inside The Adsense Recipe was a very interesting and unique selling proposition, but I was also concerned for the complete newbie because PPC is very tricky. I really don’t recommend beginners to start off with PPC unless you have some money to burn.
Another thing that I’d like to point out is that you can also build Adsense sites and sell it for huge one-time profits (also known as website flipping).
The Adsense Recipe Review – My Verdict
Overall, I was really interested with The Adsense Recipe. I haven’t seen too many paid courses about Adsense but I would consider this one IF I decide to get into building adsense sites. I haven’t bought it and that’s why you won’t see any affiliate links in here even though this is from ClickBank.
Also take note that the current refund rate for The Adsense Recipe is around 15% (average), but I’ve seen many courses where refund rate is less than 1%.

I am about to order and just wanted to know what people think, so thanks for the info.
Thanks for this well-reasoned and honest review. I’m looking at all different types of ways to monetize niche websites, with the idea of eventually flipping them, and this is one strategy. I wondered if this course would be a good one. I’m glad you pointed out that he uses PPC to drive traffic. Though I might someday want to learn that, I’ve got enough on my plate right now without adding that into the mix! I think I’ll stay away from this one.
