We are using 7search for traffic but google adsense for revenue. Is this going to make a difference? Are we going to want to move to google adwords in the future? Do you have any other advice about this website? Are we moving in the correct direction (this is our first project of this type, so I wanted to make sure we’re not way off base)?
Well you not completely off base but you have to remember that a site dedicated only to Arbi won't make much money........no wait let me rephrase that only one page dedicated to Arbi won't make much money....that sounds better...Arbi by numbers on the other hand holds some serious power, to get you more interested, Arbi by numbers by automation holds even more serious power haha.
Ok simply put doing arbi is a matter of creating a site like you've done, then using a second and third tier search engine like 7 search as you have and then using one of the big 3 (Google, YPN, or MSN) as your main source of revenue, so that part you got right.....You won't want to move over to Google Adwords, YPN, or MSN Adcenter when doing arbi......that just makes for more research and more work.
The simply explanation behind this is buy low, sell high, well more or less click high, what kind of research have you done on your keywords?, have you used the Adwords External Keyword Tool to examine the keywords in your site to determine the approx profit per click you will get?.
The trick is to have high paying Adsense ads on your site so if you pay .01 cent for a visitor on 7 Search and that visitor clicks you'll want to make more then .01 cent for that click in order for it to be profitable, now you won't get 100% CTR with any template, well you might but if you do feel special cause it doesn't always happen.
You need to test the site to see what type of power it holds so pay for your traffic from 7 Search and see what your CTR is like in Google Adsense, from their try to re-position your Adsense ads in different places to maximize your CTR.
Ok back to power by numbers, if you get to know your SEO a bit you'll soon realize (And I'm not going to disclose how) but you can create a simple site like you've done then do nothing else with it and gain traffic once it gets indexed by Google, the traffic will be minimal if you can get 50 or so clicks per month and a 50% CTR that is 25 clicks so say an average of .20 cents per click gives you $5 bucks per month.
Pretty shitty right?........wrong because once you've done that you simply repeat 2000 times and now your making $10,000 per month for doing nothing, now it takes time for this to take full effect so say you go out and buy 2000 domains, SEO them correctly, place your Adsense on them in the right areas, and did your keyword research enough to get you those 50 visitors per month, after that it can take up to 6 months for it to take full effect.
But as you can see it holds a lot of power by numbers, but imagine if their was a way that you could automate that entire process so it only takes you a month or less to create all of that and you then only need to wait 3 months for it to take effect.
That is what I meant by great power by numbers by automation. Now you might ask how do I automate this and how do I do what you said to pull in the big bucks.
The simple answer is I'm not going to tell you, nor am I going to disclose that information to anyone else.....why?, Again its simple for me I'm currently still working on the full automation process but I can promise you that once I'm done I'll simply do my keyword research and click a button and 2000 sites are created out of thin air......actual thats small time I'm working on something in the range of 10,000 sites.
You might think thats crazy and no one could pull it off but the reality of what I'm telling you is that the more vision you have the more things you can examine, the more ways you can tweak to make things quicker, easier, and make you more money in the end.
Ok this was a long post that drug on and now I'm continuing to drag it on by talking about how its been dragging on (Confused Yet), but I'll stop typing and in case this didn't answer your questions specifically, I'd suggest you think about the meaning behind it.
