I'm quite happy with adsense atm: I was averaging $0.5 a day on my site (with an average on 1-2 clicks a day) ages ago and then one day I met up with a friend of mine (the type who knows almost nothing about computers), he informed me that he had found my site and clicked the ads 11 times for me! Half of them were ignored by adsense but I could still see a revenue increase on that day. Now today, 9 months later (since then I switched to CJ) I checked my balance on adsense ($40) and decided to close my account. THEN i found out adsense send you the money they owe you! So the next site I make won't have a bad record for clicks AND I still get the money!
ummm if you actually put effort into your site and not cheated you could make ALOT just something to think about
nine months and only $40 thats very low traffic. I am new to this. hopefully I can make more then that in 9 months. And I don;t ask friends to click at my site. its all legit clicks. I make average of $0.70 ad ay. hoping for it to improve
Adsense is cool, i have recently started averageing at $2 per day. My revenue seems to be growing slowly but atleast im seeing an increase
I hate people who delibrately click on our ads ....either to help us increase revenue...or get our account cancelled by adsense. I have had 2 instances this month when I saw an excissively high CTR for one of my blogs....I mailed adsense about it. They replied back a few days later and said that all earnings from invalid clicks will be deducted. That was the first time....the second time happened just 2 days back...and I dont feel like contacting google again coz they might think Im doing this to try to appear honest n all...
I don't think any of you apart from sar420 get what I'm saying here. I never asked anyone to click the ads, they did it for me without my knowledge. Also I didn't make $40 in 9 months, I had $40 in my adsense account 9 months ago and closed it 9 months later (now)... Dom
ooh noooo sar420, my sig isn't asking people to go 2 my site and click on ads, it's saying that when you click the link to go to my site, i get $0.001/$0.0001 because I use usercash...
He said he did not click on his owns or made any one click on them. I know how a person who does not know anything about Adsense gets the idea "why not click it 100 times a day?". About a year ago, when I actually liked Adsense, I told it to my friends and they had the exact same thought.. luckily I didnt tell them the URL. I earn $20+/day from parked domains that get type-in traffic. Who needs Adsense if you have generic domains?
Generic domains are domains that receive type-in traffic. For example, there are many people who would go to movies.com to check the latest movies and reviews.. although there may not be any website at movies.com. If you own a similar generic domain, lets say Paraguay.com. Then there would be thousands of people who would type in that URL expecting to find a website or a portal that would provide them information about that country. Maybe they are potential travellers, may be just residents checking out their country's name .com. I own couple of these domains and my best one yet is Bhutan.com (Bhutan is a tourism-driven country situated between China and India) and it gets decent income and traffic every month. Whatever the reason, these 'generic' domains receive continual traffic that gets the owner stable income. You just need to 'park' it and collect cash every month. You do not have a website to worry about, no hosting fees to pay. The only thing you need to take care of is pay the annual domain renewal fee.
