Where is my adsense income coming from?

    Hi,

    I have a website set up on adsense which was making me no money, I then added to the same adsense account some 3rd party revenue - flixya.com, webasnwers.com etc.

    A couple of months later I added youtube montenization also. After doing that I also made a website rightinvestproperty.com which now ranks 2nd in key search terms like "investment property articles" WHICH I ALSO DISPLAYED ADS OF THE SAME ADSENSE ACCOUNT ON. Now I'm totally confused:confused: I make about £3.50 a day from something called "hosted adsense for content". For quite a while I've been thinking this is my rightinvestproperty website until today I read this message from google:

    Hosted domains has gone away.
    AdSense stopped supporting Hosted domains on April 18, 2012. and below it my domain. So where is my money coming from???

    I need some advice on what to do, shall I create a seperate adsense account for rightinvestproperty.com and could that make me more or shall I leave as it is and not mess anything up???




    Thanks! ALL HELP IS APPRECIATED

    if you use adsense on multiple sites and would like to know from which site the revenues are coming from you can add so called "URL channels" in your adsense account and then check the reports
    you are not allowed to have more than 1 adsense account by adsense rules

    because you probably have not created any. create one URL channel per site.

    hosted content is probably from youtube.
    now for url channels, it starts tracking only from the day you've created them, not in the past.
    But on the new adsense interface (not so new anymore) then you have in performance reports, on the left side, a link to SITES. This will show where your earnings come from even if you have no url channel.
    url channels are still good because you can track earnings by folders, like mydomain.com/health/ and mydomain.com/shopping/ if you have set up your site correctly to separate all your articles by categories in the url.

    Ok Cheers! That's strange because that's showing no clicks and only 17 page views when my site has a 6,000,000 alexa rank and is placed second in search terms like "investment property articles" WHY IS THAT???
