Story naughty blogger whose income is hundreds of millions of rupiah per month


Not many people know, being a blogger can make a lot of money per month, it can even reach hundreds of millions. However, getting to that stage is not an easy matter, so there are some bloggers who choose to use naughty methods to make a profit. The following are the results of Mojok's interviews with several sources who are involved in the naughty world of blogging. 


I have been a blogger for almost three years, have several blogs that have made money, and have joined blogger communities in both Telegram and Facebook groups. In that community, all kinds of bloggers meet. Starting from those who are just starting out and often ask questions, selling Google Adsense accounts, selling article writing services, there are also senior bloggers who have been paid regularly every month from Google Adsense. 


Of the many types of bloggers, there is one that caught my attention. They are the type of blogger who can get hundreds of millions of rupiah per month from Google Adsense, in various naughty ways. 

Disappointed with the initial income from Google Adsense

I managed to chat with Jatmiko* (31) via Facebook message, and he explained his activities so far. 
"When it comes to creating a blog, I've been working on it since 2014, Mas. But yeah, it's still sloppy and hasn't made any money," said Jatmiko via Facebook message on January 21, 2022. "It wasn't until early 2015 that my blog was accepted by Google Adsense and I was able to start earning."
According to Jatmiko, he used to feel that he could get rich from Google Adsense, but in the end he learned the fact that income from Adsense is just coins. "Just being able to get one thousand rupiah from Adsense is great," he said. According to Jatmiko, if there are only hundreds of blog visitors per day, then it's impossible to get paid every month from Adsense. 
“The blog's revenue comes from Google Adsense. We get money if Adsense ads on our blog are watched by many people, or when people click on them. That's why, if there are only hundreds of daily blog visitors, plus no one clicks on ads, it's impossible to get money."

He also continued that it takes hundreds of thousands or even millions of visitors to be able to make money from Google Adsense. "Only tribunnews can do that,"

But that is the past. As of 2019, Jatmiko is getting to know the naughty ways of using a VPN. "Learn from Youtube and try it first," he explained. “The point is, visitors from abroad such as the United States, Australia or England can bring in big money. Per one click on ads originating from these countries can generate up to hundreds of thousands, Mas. 
Finally, Jatmiko tried to download a VPN which can change the network's IP address to make it appear as if it came from abroad. “Initial free VPN, where you can't choose the server. In the end, I used a VPN, changed the IP address to a foreign server, then opened my blog, opened several articles, and clicked on an ad. The point is like that until I can make five million per month at that time.”
After just one paycheck, bad luck befell Jatmiko. His activity using a VPN was discovered by Google and resulted in his Google Adsense account being closed. "I was stupid, all the articles on my blog were in Indonesian, while I used a foreign server to read and click ads," recalls Jatmiko. "Yes, finally I decided to make a blog full of English content."
With Bing Translator, Jatmiko can make many articles in English for his new blog. "I didn't make it from scratch, but bought a blog that was already registered with Google Adsense on Facebook. I made the five million salary earlier as capital to buy a blog and a Premium VPN subscription.”
The reason for Jatmiko buying a blog is so he doesn't have to build it from scratch which takes a long time. He also bought a blog whose articles have been indexed on Google a lot. "I bought about 3 million first. In the past, those 3 million were able to get good blogs as well as Google Adsense with PIN verification. Now, the price of a blog like that is already 6 million.”
With a blog filled with English articles, VPN Premium, and a reckless spirit, Jatmiko clicks on his own ads every day. “I can click up to 20 ads a day with different IPs. Per click, I can get 25 thousand. So yes per day I can get five hundred thousand first. Per month I can get fifteen million. 
This activity lasted for three months. In the third month, Jatmiko's Google Adsense account was closed again. “The third month is closed again. Yes, I'm just looking for a blog that already has Adsense in the group. Got it, and I did the activity again.”
Knowing that sooner or later his Google Adsense account would be closed, Jatmiko went wild. “Early on, I was still relaxed about clicking ads per day because I was afraid of being caught. But after knowing that sooner or later you will definitely be found out and the account will be closed, that's it, I'm playing like crazy."
From initially only clicking around 20 ads per day, Jatmiko can now click 60 to 80 ads every day. “Per click ads can sometimes penetrate one hundred thousand. Per one blog, I can get about three million per day.”
Jatmiko also said that he has six blogs that he currently manages and all of them earn around three million per day. “Managing six blogs using a VPN like this is clearly not enough for one cellphone. That's why I have six HP to carry out this operation.”
With the six blogs he manages, Jatmiko can earn nearly half a billion in one month. "But half a billion is a number on Google Adsense. Usually at the end of the month when the calculation is carried out by Google Adsense, this number will definitely be cut off. Definitely hit invalid traffic. Per account is usually cut 40 percent. So yes, at first it seemed like I would get five hundred million, in the end I only got 300 million rupiah."

The risks that lurk behind Jatmiko's activities

After being amazed by Jatmiko's income, I then discussed what the risks were lurking. Jatmiko lightly replied that the risk was that his account would be closed by Google Adsense. "Yes closed it,"
Furthermore, he said that Google Adsense policies prohibit any activity of clicking on their own ads in any way. Quoting from the official page of the Adsense program policies, clicks on Google ads must come purely from the user's wishes. Any method that improperly generates clicks or impressions on Google ads is strictly prohibited. 
These prohibited methods include, but are not limited to, repeated manual clicks or impressions, automated click and impression generating tools, and the use of deceptive robots or software. 
"But yes, like before, if it's closed, all you have to do is buy it again. After all, many sell blogs and Google Adsense accounts in the community every day." Regarding account closure, Jatmiko said that he had experienced something unpleasant. 
"If the account is closed, the money that has been collected will still be paid out in the next period. With a note, money is collected after deducting the amount of invalid traffic. In my experience, the balance that has been accumulated in the previous month will be safe from reducing invalid traffic and will still be transferred in the following period. Unfortunately, my experience after that was different.”
According to Jatmiko, one of his Google Adsense accounts was closed in the middle of the month and the unpaid balance from the previous month was around fifty million. “I'm relaxed because the fifty million will be transferred in a month. As it turned out, after I checked at the end of the month, the fifty million was also subject to an invalid traffic deduction to zero. Yes, the money is gone."
Learning from this, Jatmiko decided to always be on guard and have a backup account. “In my experience, two months of activity playing VPN is still safe. So, at the end of the second month, set aside some money to buy a blog and a Google Adsense account."
Then, when I asked how long he was going to play this naughty trick, Jatmiko replied, "If you can keep doing it, why stop?"

Choose to pay for services

In contrast to Jatmiko, according to him, other bloggers from the Telegram community have an easier way. He is Haris* (25) who prefers to pay for services to increase Google Adsense income rather than acting alone. 
“In the past, I used to play VPN, but after a while it got tired and hurt my eyes, bro!” said the young man who has been a blogger for two years. “Finally, I was looking for it, before I found a site called AyuAds. The point is we deposit money there, then we can buy clicks there for our blog.”
When I asked what the AyuAds mechanism was like, Haris said he didn't really understand. “Some say it's a bot. Some say it's part of a Paid to Click network. If it's a bot, it means it's not a human who clicks. If it's Paid to Click, the point is there will be other people around the world who get a certain percentage of money if they click on the ads that I buy. I don't know which one is right."
From buying clicks on AyuAds, Haris said he could earn hundreds of thousands per day, until finally his account was closed by Google. "Using AyuAds, you have to be smart about the settings, Mas. Must determine this. If it's just a little wrong, the Google Adsense account can be closed quickly. So, after the experience was closed, I stopped using AyuAds."
Haris also ended up buying a new blog along with a Google Adsense account. At first he wanted to be a normal blogger, in the end he was tempted by an offer from a member of an international blogger group. "He offers services to increase Adsense income, Mas. He said he could earn up to 60 USD per day. I called, and I asked questions.”
The service provider is a Canadian who manages a kind of traffic and click service provider agency. “He is Quebecois, and one of his friends is Pakistani. They provide services around adding income. 
Services offered start from daily, weekly, and monthly. One day service fee is 15 USD, seven days 109 USD and monthly 400 USD. With these services, service buyers can earn up to 1000 USD per month, or if converted to 14 million rupiahs. 
Through the chat via Telegram on January 21, 2022, Haris also emphasized that at first using such services did not seem profitable. “They can send a lot of clicks in one day, but per day I only get tens of thousands. That means a loss, because I paid them around 15 USD or around 214 thousand rupiahs.”
According to Haris, this all happened because the cost per click obtained was very low. “But over time the cost per click on my blog went up. Per day yes I can get five hundred thousand. Finally I chose to use their services full one month. I can get fifteen million rupiah, and deduct their service fee per month, which is only five million and seven hundred."
Haris doesn't care what method the service provider uses. As long as he could get a profit greater than the cost, then he was relaxed. “It doesn't matter if you use a bot or you click yourself using a VPN. I am completely ignorant of their methods, the important thing is they can bring me money.”
When I mentioned that Google Adsense was found out, Haris replied that there were still many blogs and Google Adsense accounts in the community to buy. "Can buy. Yes, people like me are their target market who sell Google Adsense accounts."

Choose a more reasonable way

Dani* (27), a member of the blogger group on Facebook that I chatted with, said that he has his own way of getting money from Google Adsense. “If the normal method is called White Hat, and the naughty method is called Black Hat, then what I'm wearing seems to be suitable to be called Gray Hat. I'm not violating Adsense policies, but on the other hand I'm working on something to get clicks."
Dani explains that he uses the Pinterest network to drive traffic to his blog. “I upload sexy photos on Pinterest, and if the photos are clicked, they will go to my blog which is full of ad banners. So, all that's left is to find a way to make the traffic from Pinterest read organically so it's safe."
Apart from using Pinterest, Dani also has a hobby of creating ads on Facebook Ads to generate traffic. “FB Ads are cheap. In the right way, we can bring organic legible traffic from all over the world. Of course, which country we are after. After getting traffic, it is very likely that the ads that I post here and there will be clicked whether intentionally or not.” Dani added, "Most likely the ad was accidentally clicked, hahaha."
The trick Dani uses is more popularly called FbAds to Adsense. A simple game which in the world of economics is called arbitrage, a practice of profiting from price differences that occur between two financial markets. Arbitration, in the world of blogging, can be done by advertising our blog articles on advertiser networks that are cheaper than Google Adsense, then hoping to benefit from Google Adsense being posted on our blog. One of the most efficient low-cost advertiser networks today is the FBAds network. 
“Yes, arbitration,” Dani replied when I told him about this practice. “My income is not crazy like those who play VPN or rent services. Per month I only get six million.”
However, according to Dani, even though what he did was not in the category of naughty or fraudulent, he still had anticipation by setting aside money to buy a Google Adsense account. "There is only one point, you have to be ready to get banned and buy a new account."

Kisah Blogger Nakal Pendapatannya Ratusan Juta Rupiah per Bulan


Tidak banyak yang tahu, menjadi blogger bisa menghasilkan banyak uang per bulan, bahkan bisa tembus sampai ratusan juta. Akan tetapi untuk sampai pada tahap itu bukanlah perkara mudah, sehingga ada beberapa blogger yang memilih untuk menggunakan cara nakal untuk meraih keuntungan. Berikut ini adalah hasil wawancara Mojok dengan beberapa narasumber yang bergelut di dunia nakal seputar blogging.


Hampir tiga tahun saya menjadi blogger, memiliki beberapa blog yang sudah menghasilkan uang, pun bergabung dengan komunitas blogger baik di grup Telegram maupun Facebook. Di komunitas itu, semua jenis blogger bertemu. Mulai dari yang baru mulai dan sering bertanya, tukang jualan akun Google Adsense, jualan jasa menulis artikel, pun ada pula blogger senior yang sudah rutin gajian tiap bulan dari Google Adsense.

Dari sekian banyak jenis blogger, ada yang kemudian menarik perhatian saya. Mereka adalah jenis blogger yang bisa mendapat ratusan juta rupiah per bulan dari Google Adsense, dengan berbagai cara nakal.

Kecewa dengan penghasilan awal dari Google Adsense

Saya berhasil ngobrol dengan Jatmiko* (31) melalui pesan Facebook, dan beliau membeberkan aktivitasnya selama ini.

“Kalau membuat blog, sudah saya kerjakan sejak tahun 2014, Mas. Tapi ya gitu, masih asal-asalan dan belum menghasilkan uang,” tutur Jatmiko melalui pesan Facebook pada 21 Januari 2022. “Baru awal 2015 itu blog saya keterima Google Adsense dan bisa mulai berpenghasilan.”

Menurut Jatmiko, dulu ia merasa bisa kaya dari Google Adsense, tetapi akhirnya ia mengetahui fakta bahwa penghasilan dari Adsense hanya recehan. “Sehari bisa dapet seribu rupiah dari Adsense saja sudah hebat,” tuturnya. Menurut Jatmiko, kalau pengunjung blog hanya ratusan per hari, maka mustahil bisa gajian setiap bulan dari Adsense.

“Pendapatan blog itu dari Google Adsense. Kita dapet duit kalau iklan Adsense di blog kita ditonton banyak orang, atau ketika diklik orang. Makanya, kalau pengunjung blog harian hanya ratusan, ditambah tidak ada yang klik iklan, maka tidak mungkin dapat uang.”

Ia juga melanjutkan bahwa dibutuhkan ratusan ribu atau bahkan jutaan pengunjung agar bisa mendapat uang dari Google Adsense. “Hanya tribunnews yang bisa kayak gitu,”

Menemukan cara cepat mendapat uang dari Google Adsense

Akan tetapi itu adalah masa lalu. Per tahun 2019, Jatmiko mulai mengenal cara nakal menggunakan VPN. “Belajar dari Youtube dan coba-coba dulu,” terangnya. “Intinya, pengunjung dari luar negeri seperti Amerika Serikat, Australia, atau Inggris itu bisa mendatangkan duit besar. Per satu klik iklan yang berasal dari negara-negara tadi bisa menghasilkan hingga ratusan ribu, Mas.”

Akhirnya, Jatmiko mencoba untuk mengunduh VPN yang bisa mengubah alamat IP jaringan menjadi seolah datang dari luar negeri. “VPN gratisan awalnya, yang servernya tidak bisa milih. Akhirnya ya saya pakai VPN, ganti alamat IP ke server luar negeri, terus buka blog saya, buka beberapa artikel, dan klik iklan. Intinya seperti itu terus sampai saya bisa menghasilkan waktu itu lima jutaan per bulan.”

Baru gajian satu kali, nasib malang menimpa Jatmiko. Aktivitasnya menggunakan VPN ketahuan pihak Google dan berakibat akun Google Adsense-nya ditutup. “Bodohnya saya, semua artikel di blog saya itu berbahasa Indonesia, sedangkan saya pakai server luar negeri buat baca-baca dan klik iklan,” kenang Jatmiko. “Ya sudah, akhirnya saya memutuskan untuk bikin blog yang isinya full bahasa Inggris.”

Bermodalkan Bing Translator, Jatmiko bisa membuat banyak artikel berbahasa Inggris untuk blog barunya. “Itu saya tidak bikin dari awal, tetapi beli blog yang sudah terdaftar Google Adsense di Facebook. Gajian lima juta tadi saya jadikan modal buat beli blog dan langganan VPN Premium.”

Alasan Jatmiko membeli blog adalah agar ia tidak harus membangun dari awal yang membutuhkan waktu lama. Ia juga membeli blog yang artikelnya sudah banyak terindeks di Google. “Saya beli sekitar 3 juta dulu. Dulu, 3 juta itu sudah bisa dapat blog bagus sekaligus Google Adsense yang sudah verifikasi PIN. Kalau sekarang sih harga blog seperti itu sudah 6 jutaan.”

Dengan blog berisi artikel bahasa Inggris, VPN Premium, dan jiwa nekat, Jatmiko melakukan aksi klik iklan sendiri setiap harinya. “Sehari saya bisa klik sampai 20-an iklan dengan IP berganti-ganti. Per klik itu saya bisa dapat 25 ribuan. Jadi ya per hari saya bisa dapet lima ratus ribuan dulu. Per bulannya saya bisa dapet lima belas jutaan lah.”

Aktivitas itu berlangsung selama tiga bulan. Pada bulan ketiga, akun Google Adsense Jatmiko kembali ditutup. “Bulan ketiga ditutup lagi. Ya sudah, saya tinggal nyari blog yang sudah ada Adsense-nya di grup. Dapet, dan saya lakukan aktivitas itu kembali.”

Mengetahui bahwa cepat atau lambat akun Google Adsense-nya akan ditutup, maka Jatmiko justru semakin liar beraksi. “Awal-awal, saya masih nyantai buat klik iklan per hari karena takut ketahuan. Tetapi setelah tahu cepat atau lambat pasti ketahuan dan ditutup akunnya, ya sudah, saya gila-gilaan mainnya.”

Dari yang awalnya hanya menklik iklan 20-an per hari, Jatmiko kini bisa 60 sampai 80 iklan yang diklik setiap harinya. “Per klik iklan kadang bisa tembus seratus ribu. Per satu blog, saya bisa dapat sekitar tiga juta per hari.”

Jatmiko juga mengatakan bahwa ia memiliki enam blog yang saat ini ia kelola dan semuanya menghasilkan sekitar tiga juta per hari. “Mengelola enam blog dengan cara main VPN gini jelas tidak cukup satu HP. Makanya saya punya enam HP untuk menjalankan operasi ini.”

Dengan enam blog yang dikelolanya, Jatmiko bisa mendapatkan hampir setengah miliyar dalam satu bulannya. “Tetapi setengah miliyar itu kan angka di Google Adsense. Biasanya di akhir bulan saat dilakukan penghitungan oleh pihak Google Adsense, angka tersebut pasti bakal kepotong. Pasti kena invalid traffic. Per akun biasanya kepotong 40 persen. Jadi ya yang awalnya kayak bakal dapet lima ratus juta, akhirnya cuma dapet 300 jutaan rupiah.”

Risiko yang mengintai di balik aktivitas Jatmiko

Selesai terkagum-kagum dengan penghasilan Jatmiko, saya lantas membahas apa risiko yang mengintai. Dengan enteng Jatmiko membalas bahwa risikonya ya akunnya akan ditutup oleh pihak Google Adsense. “Ya ditutup itu,”

Lebih lanjut, ia mengatakan bahwa kebijakan Google Adsense melarang adanya aktivitas klik iklan sendiri dengan cara apa pun. Mengutip dari laman resmi kebijakan program Adsense, Klik pada iklan Google harus murni berasal dari keinginan pengguna. Metode apa pun yang menghasilkan klik atau tayangan secara tidak semestinya pada iklan Google sangat dilarang.

Metode terlarang ini mencakup, tetapi tidak terbatas pada, klik atau tayangan manual berulang, alat penghasil klik dan tayangan otomatis, serta penggunaan robot atau software yang menipu. 

“Tetapi ya seperti tadi, kalau ditutup kan tinggal beli lagi. Toh banyak yang jual blog beserta akun Google Adsense di komunitas setiap hari.” Lebih lanjut terkait penutupan akun, Jatmiko mengatakan bahwa ia pernah mengalami hal yang kurang menyenangkan. 

“Kalau akun ditutup itu, duit yang sudah terkumpul bakal tetap dibayarkan di periode berikutnya. Dengan catatan, duit terkumpul setelah dikurangi jumlah trafik tidak valid. Pengalaman saya, saldo yang sudah terkumpul pada bulan sebelumnya bakal aman dari pengurangan trafik tidak valid dan bakal tetap ditransfer di periode berikutnya. Sialnya, pengalaman saya setelah itu justru berbeda.”

Menurut Jatmiko, salah satu akun Google Adsense-nya ditutup pada pertengahan bulan dan saldo dari bulan sebelumnya yang belum dibayar ada sekitar lima puluh juta. “Saya santai saja karena lima puluh juta itu akan ditransfer satu bulan lagi. Ternyata, setelah saya cek di akhir bulan, duit lima puluh juta itu juga kena potongan trafik tidak valid sampai nol. Ya sudah, hilang itu uang.”

Belajar dari hal itu, Jatmiko memutuskan untuk selalu berjaga-jaga dan memiliki akun cadangan. “Sepengalaman saya, dua bulan aktivitas main VPN masih aman. Nah, di akhir bulan kedua, sisikan duit buat beli blog dan akun Google Adsense.”

Lantas, ketika saya bertanya sampai kapan ia akan bermain trik nakal tersebut, Jatmiko membalas, “Kalau bisa dilakukan terus, kenapa berhenti?”

Memilih membayar jasa

Berbeda dengan Jatmiko, blogger lain dari komunitas di Telegram memiliki cara yang lebih mudah menurutnya. Ia adalah Haris* (25) yang lebih memilih membayar jasa menaikkan penghasilan Google Adsense ketimbang beraksi sendiri.

“Dulu ya pernah main VPN, tetapi lama-lama capek dan bikin mata sakit, Mas!” tutur pemuda yang sudah dua tahun menjadi blogger tersebut. “Akhirnya cari-cari, dulu nemu ada situs namanya AyuAds. Intinya kita deposit uang di sana, terus bisa beli klik di sana untuk blog kita.”

Ketika saya bertanya seperti apa mekanisme AyuAds, Haris mengatakan tidak begitu paham. “Ada yang bilang itu bot. Ada juga yang bilang itu bagian dari jaringan Paid to Click. Kalo bot ya berarti itu bukan manusia yang melakukan klik. Kalo Paid to Click, intinya bakal ada orang lain di seluruh dunia yang dapet sekian persen duit jika mengklik iklan yang saya beli. Nggak tau mana yang bener.”

Dari membeli klik di AyuAds, Haris mengatakan bisa mendapat ratusan ribu per hari, sampai akhirnya akunnya ditutup pihak Google. “Pakai AyuAds itu harus pinter setting pengaturannya, Mas. Harus nentuin ini itu. Kalau salah dikit saja, akun Google Adsense bisa cepet ditutup. Nah, setelah pengalaman ditutup tadi, saya berhenti pakai AyuAds.”

Haris juga akhirnya membeli blog baru beserta akun Google Adsense. Sempat ingin menjadi blogger normal, akhirnya ia tergiur penawaran salah seorang member grup blogger internasional. “Dia menawarkan jasa meningkatkan penghasilan Adsense gitu, Mas. Katanya bisa mendapat sampai 60 USD per hari. Saya hubungi, dan saya tanya-tanya.”

Penawar jasa itu adalah orang asal Kanada yang mengelola semacam agensi penyedia jasa trafik dan klik. “Dia orang Quebec, dan satu lagi temannya orang Pakistan. Mereka menyediakan jasa seputar menambah penghasilan gitu.”

Jasa yang ditawarkan mulai dari harian, mingguan, dan bulanan. Biaya jasa satu hari senilai 15 USD, tujuh hari 109 USD, dan bulanan 400 USD. Dengan jasa tersebut, pembeli jasa bisa mendapatkan penghasilan sampai 1000 USD per bulan, atau jika dirupiahkan senilai 14 jutaan.

Melalui obrolan via Telegram pada 21 Januari 2022 itu, Haris juga menegaskan bahwa di awal-awal menggunakan jasa semacam itu tampak tidak untung. “Mereka bisa mengirim banyak klik dalam satu hari, tapi per harinya saya cuma dapat puluhan ribu. Itu artinya rugi, soalnya saya bayar mereka 15-an USD atau sekitar 214-an ribu rupiah.”

Menurut Haris, itu semua terjadi karena biaya per klik yang didapatkan sangat kecil. “Tetapi lama-lama biaya per klik di blog saya naik. Per hari ya saya bisa dapet lima ratusan ribu. Akhirnya saya pilih buat pake jasa mereka full satu bulan. Saya bisa dapet lima belasan juta rupiah, dan dipotong biaya jasa mereka per bulan yang hanya lima juta tujuh ratusan.”

Haris tidak peduli metode apa yang digunakan penyedia jasa yang ia pakai. Selama ia bisa mendapatkan keuntungan lebih besar daripada biaya yang harus dikeluarkan, maka ia santai-santai saja. “Nggak peduli pakai bot atau diklik sendiri pakai VPN. Saya bodo amat dengan metode mereka, yang penting bisa mendatangkan saya duit.”

Ketika saya singgung perihal ketahuan pihak Google Adsense, Haris menjawab bahwa masih banyak blog beserta akun Google Adsense di komunitas untuk dibeli. “Bisa beli. Ya orang-orang kayak saya ini target pasar mereka yang jualan akun Google Adsense.”

Memilih cara yang lebih masuk akal

Dani* (27), salah seorang anggota grup blogger di Facebook yang saya ajak ngobrol, mengatakan bahwa ia memiliki caranya sendiri untuk mendapatkan uang dari Google Adsense. “Kalau cara normal disebut White Hat, dan cara nakal disebut Black Hat, maka yang saya pakai ini kayaknya cocok disebut Gray Hat. Saya nggak melanggar kebijakan Adsense, tetapi di sisi lain saya mengusahakan sesuatu agar dapat klik.”

Dani menjelaskan bahwa ia memanfaatkan jaringan Pinterest untuk mendatangkan trafik ke blog. “Saya mengunggah foto-foto seksi di Pinterest, dan kalau foto itu diklik, maka akan masuk ke blog saya yang penuh banner iklan. Nah, tinggal cari cara biar trafik dari Pinterest itu kebaca organik biar aman.”

Selain menggunakan Pinterest, Dani juga hobi membuat iklan di FacebookAds untuk mendatangkan trafik. “FB Ads itu murah. Dengan cara yang tepat, kita bisa mendatangkan trafik yang terbaca organik dari seluruh dunia. Tentuin saja negara mana yang kita incar. Setelah dapet trafik, maka besar kemungkinan iklan yang saya pasang di sana-sini akan diklik entah sengaja atau tidak.” Dani menambahkan, “Kemungkinan besar sih tidak sengaja diklik iklannya, hahaha.”

Trik yang digunakan Dani tersebut lebih populer disebut FbAds to Adsense. Permainan sederhana yang dalam dunia ekonomi disebut arbitrase, sebuah praktik memperoleh keuntungan dari perbedaan harga yang terjadi di antara dua pasar keuangan. Arbitrase, kalau di dunia blogging, bisa dilakukan dengan mengiklankan artikel blog kita di jaringan pengiklan yang lebih murah dibandingkan Google Adsnese, lantas berharap mendapat keuntungan dari Google Adsense yang dipasang di blog kita. Salah satu jaringan pengiklan murah yang sangat efisien saat ini ya jaringan FBAds.

“Ya, arbitrase,” jawab Dani saat saya menyampaikan perihal praktik tersebut. “Penghasilan saya nggak gila-gilaan kayak yang main VPN atau sewa jasa. Per bulan saya paling hanya mendapat enam jutaan.”

Akan tetapi menurut Dani, sekalipun yang ia lakukan belum masuk kategori nakal atau curang, ia tetap memiliki antisipasi dengan menyisikan uang untuk membeli akun Google Adsense. “Semua itu intinya satu, kudu siap kebanned dan beli akun baru.”
