This is actually my first time to publish an article that talks about how I make money online.
The purpose of this blog post is not to brag but to motivate my readers to also start establishing their own website or YouTube channel, and eventually make money out of it.
Susubukan kong maging as detailed as possible dito sa post na ito so to give you a clearer picture kung papaano nga ba kumita online, specifically through Google Adsense.
Google Adsense
Ang pinakasikat at pinaka-pinagkakatiwalaang advertising platform online ay ang Google Adsense. Ito rin marahil ang pinaka-reliable kasi Google ang nagbibigay ng sahod sa mga "partners." Through Adsense, kumikita ang website sa pamamagitan ng ads na nagpapakita sa mga blogposts o videos.
Kapag na-click, halimbawa, ng readers, yung mga nagpapakita, kumikita ang may-ari ng website. Depende ang kikitain per click sa kung saan naroroon ang reader. Mas mataas ang kita kapag US ang audience kaysa Philippines.
Naririto ang screenshot, halimbawa, magkano per click. Dito, 0.04 USD per click dahil karamihan ay Pinoy audience. Pero, may mga araw na umaabot hanggang 0.09 USD. Again, depende sa kung sino ang mga nagbabasa -- saang bansa sila galing. In my case, Pinoy audience (so, mostly, from the Philippines). Depende rin ito sa mga nagpapakitang ads sa articles mo (not too familiar with this, though may available resources online that provide further details).
Paano naman ang itsura ng bawat ad? Ganito yun:
Magkano kada buwan?
Depende actually kung may nagva-viral kang post. In my case, thankfully, mas mataas na kaysa sa kinikita ko sa dayjob ko.
Nagsimula ako actually sa saktong umaabot lang sa threshold, which is a hundred bucks per month. Until eventually, na-establish na siya. Modesty aside, here is a glimpse at how much money I make through Google Adsense every month to motivate you even further.
Itong $800 plus this month ay maaari pang madagdagan. Ang cut-off ay end of the month. Today is April 13. Hopefully, madagdagan pa ito nang madagdagan.
As for my revenue last month, Google will send it to me this coming April 21 or 22 (or at midnight of 21). Ito yung kinita ng website ko from March 1 through 31. Ganito ang sistema usually sa Google Adsense -- kung magkano ang kinita mo last month, makukuha mo ito the next month, 21st of the month onwards. Kung iko-convert ito into peso, for example ang kita ng website last March ($1,109), it is around P56,000 (way bigger as opposed to my regular job, which is at P24,000+). I usually withdraw my earned money through Western Union (at pwedeng i-cash-in through GCash para hindi hassle sa pagpipila).
UPDATE: Last April 22, I already got the payment from a Western Union outlet in our area (thanks, Mileva Ballesteros).
As of April 18, 2020:
Update as of May 22, 2020:
I got my payment for April last May 22 ($3,852). ;)
Ilan sa mga kakilala (through the Facebook Group Ask Pinoy Bloggers), barya lang ito sa kanila. They even earn much, much more. Part ng group na ito ang may-ari ng Facebook Page at YouTube Channel na CHoOx TV. Nakikita-kita ko lang din post niya dati sa Facebook Group na ito. Ngayon, mukhang "hindi na ma-reach" sa laki ng kinikita niya through ads. In fact, I can see some of his posts na nagpapatayo na ng sariling bahay. Ayos na ayos, 'di ba? Nakaka-motivate talaga.
Para sa akin, laking-tulong na ito sa pamilya. With consistency and hardwork, I know magagawa ko rin ang mga nagagawa na nila. Motivation, kumbaga.
Again, the purpose of this blogpost is to motivate you to start blogging or vlogging today and to guide you, of course, along the way (as I am going to update this post every now and then).
How to create a website and how to sign-up for an Adsense account?
Well, with regard to building a website, marami ring YouTube videos about this. You may start creating a site through blogger platform. Kay Google din ito and it is very user-friendly. This way, you need not buy your domain that will cost you around $10 every year. Pwede namang ikonekta ito kay Google Adsense. Though maraming nagsasabi na mas beneficial at mas lucrative if you have your own domain -- mala-rappler.com or inquirer.net kumbaga.
Here is a tutorial video that you may want to check out to build your website through blogger (though mahaba-haba ito):
If you want, you can also buy an already established website (meron na ring Google Adsense-ready, but you have to reapply it later on pagkakaalam ko) through flippa.com. In my case, binili ko ang website, around almost three years ago. And I can say, that's one of the best decisions I ever had. Truly worth the money and the wait bago ako umabot sa mga threshold.
Though, of course, you need to fork out money from your pocket. Check out flippa.com so you will have an idea as to how much you need to shell out for a website sa ngayon. I suggest, bili ka ng Google Adsense-ready na (kagaya ng nabanggit ko kanina).
It is also important and prudent that blogging / vlogging is really your passion -- yun bang tipong nag-e-enjoy ka kapag nagba-blog o nagva-vlog ka. It will be benefial if you can write (para sa iyo talaga ito). Kumbaga, hindi ito trabaho sa'yo kundi passion talaga.

Tips in Generating Views
Well, the first thing to keep in mind is to create a good, viral content. Also, go for evergreen content, ito yung article na kahit ilang years na ang nakaraan, hindi pa rin napapaso. Articles about "tips," for example are examples of it. Itong post na ito na binabasa mo ngayon ay evergreen din ito kung maituturing, dahil pwede pa rin naman ito years from today kasi marami pa ring interested to start blogging and make money out of it.
Also, malaking bagay ang pagpo-post sa Facebook. Ito talaga ang number one. Walang silbi ang content mo kung hindi mo ito ipo-promote. Wala ring makababasa. Malaking tulong ang Facebook groups. Just make sure na iwasan ang spam para hindi ma-block ng Facebook sa pagpo-post sa groups.
I'm sure there are tons of videos on YouTube that could help you make money online, specifically through Google Adsense.
Here is another video from ABS-CBN explaining how to make money through blogging:
For me, blogging is really worth the effort, because I do what I love and I earn money at the same time.
Again, I will try to update this post every now and then, so stay tuned. Build your own site or Youtube channel and start making money online. Good luck!
