    Hello,

    It has been like 2 months since i started my site and used Adsense for it and although i've put adsense Firefox and picassa referrals, i didn't get clicks on any of them

    are referrals working for you ? what kind of the 4 ? and what did it pay you ?

    I tried FireFox and Picasa referrals for a couple of months but earned next to nothing, probably because of the 'international' nature of my visitors. I still have the Picasa ad on my site but only because I like the program ;)

    Cheers

    I got a few occasional clicks on adsense for referral ads but they did not convert.
    I am thinking about taking them down since I am not earning anythiing with it.

    The 'Make your PC more useful with the Google Pack' has made over $50 for me in about 3 weeks time. I've tried the Firefox and Picassa buttons, but they didn't perform nearly as well. Less than $5 combined actually.

    if the referrals fit the subject of your site, and if you do it right, they can make a LOT of $$ ..
    Firefox makes me over $1k/month
    GooglePack and picassa make several hundred $$ /month

    Since I started on August 27, I've received $15 from Firefox with Google Toolbar conversions and 7 signups to Adsense.

    Now if only those people who signed up with Adsense through my referral break the $100 threshold within 3 months, that'll be some serious potential cash. For me, that is. :)
