Help me make money with Adsense!

    My site has been up for about 3 years. We get approx 100,000 unique visitors a month. We average about three bucks a day. It's an news site with fresh original content 2-3 times a day. Does this seem normal?

    Seems like with that many people you should be making more money than that. Could you link to the site so we can see your ad placement? It could be that you ad placement isnt ideal so you dont get many clicks as a result

    $3.00 average per day is alright but you can do better. First thing comes to my mind is that you might need to move your ads around, or change colors. Have you done that? Test it out and see if you get better results.

    Sometimes it depends on the content and quality. You're making $3 a day off of how many clicks? 1? 300? You don't have to answer, it's just something to consider. You're demographic may not be inclined to clicking on ads and the ads they click may be junk depending on the subject matter.

    That's about normal. I tested some traffic of that amount on a blog promotion of that size and I made about that much. I've also have had traffic in the amount of 32,000 people a day and made around $400 - $600 a day.

    As a result.
    I would wake up eat snacks checking my Google account every hour and go back to sleep. All my bills where paid automatically due to the fact that is was all sent to the bank and I had auto bill pay so I saved a lot of gas and made more time to learn.

    The more ya do the more ya get and the more ya get the more ya can do. Good Luck!

    $90 a month from 100,000 visitor LMAO.

    If you managed to get 100k people a month then you should be smart enough to make at list $100 a day off adsense.

    matter of fact even below the fold adsense would earn more then 10 dollars a day from 100,000 unique visitors a month.

    are you sure someone didn't hack you site and switch the publisher ID LOL.

    here is some data we need to help you.
    Adsense impression, CTR "this is available on the adsense report screen"

    copy that info "remove any mention of you site or keyword" and paste it to this forum.

    It is a good idea to remove the adsense code and then create new adsense ad blocks for your website. Add Channels and track clicks through Google Analytics

    possibly you have wrongly monetized your website or may be that traffic is not much targeted...

    Not all of us have MFA sites. Some of us have sites that no matter what, the crap Google puts on our sites labelled 'adsense' has not much to do with our sites and we earn less than the MFA people. Personally if I got $10 a day from 100k visitors a month I would be ecstatic. One of my sites has made $20 from 100k impressions this month, for example, and that's only because I changed stuff around and doubled my CTR.

    Edit: actually more than doubled, didn't realise it had got so high. Up from .01 to 0.2 :confused:

    Your site probably needs some work on ad placement. Use the Highest Click ratio ads. Experiment with different colors what matches with your website.
