How much website traffic would you need to make this much?

[Sean]

There are several factors to consider before you can make a good gauge to how much traffic it takes to make a certain amount from Adsense ads.

The quality of your content, where you place your ads, how you naturally you blend your ads within the content etc will affect the CTR (Click-thru Rate) of your ads.

At the same time, the assumption here is that you're receiving organic traffic from the search engines and not using paid methods. Otherwise your costs will eat into your Adsense revenues.

What you can do for a rough estimate is to go into the Google Keyword Tool, find out what the average CPC is for your keywords, do a bit of research on what the average CTR is for your niche, then break it down till you reach your $200 goal.

That will give you a ballpark figure.

Hope this helps!
