A dream come true?

    Just went into my stats and much to my surprise I have earned ... wait for it ... $1008.25 today!

    A dream come true? Alas NO! Just a mistake?

    I have since contacted admin.

    Wonder if they will make my dream come true, reward me for my honesty or just correct their mistake. I should be added to their Christmas gift list - don't you think?

    Why would it be a mistake? What do you normally make per day?

    Elvis died on August 16, 1977. Perhaps it is Christmas for you? :D

    I have a newer site that has to do with gifts, I got a surge the week of Mother's day and Father's day, but the site is too new to get really good serps.

    Perhaps Google decided to change the percentage of revenue from each click that they get from 98% to a more reasonable 50%. If so, we're all rich!

    It is 29 years from elvis death, so probably you had more traffic these days.

    Good for you.

    Perhaps there's been a surge of advertisers buying Elvis related keywords this week, and thereby inflating the CPC?

    If Google let you keep the money, can I have a bit of it? ;)

    Cryo.

    What was a mistake? How can Google adsense possibly make a mistake and give you more money than you earned.
    I am puzzled by this. Please share more.

    Since I posted my win-fall - I have log in again - and now it is showing that the earning are from referrals - which was not there initially.

    Fingers crossed admin has offered me an explanation and I have in fact earned that total.

    So, to quote the man himself... thankyou,thankyouverymuch.
