Congratulation, I with google ads with 1 year but still not get my first check because my earning only $31.90 ,
Congratulations to you, you are very much lucky and I guess you're handling your site well too. Things can only get better, so I hope that you will have more blessings!
Two observations to offer. If you can get such a high click value, so can I. That is encouraging and perhaps a sign that the world recession is beginning to end and more money will start coming in to us publishers! My other thought is to wonder what your next click at that site happens to be worth. I get clicks from niche sites that range from $1 to $2, occasionally, but the next day that go back down to ten cents or whatever. If only those value stayed above a dollar with every click! But the Google ad marketplace is very fluid. Still I am glad you got the high value click and hope many more follow.
Yea, great to get a $8.00 click but the CTR is really low. Would much prefer high CTR than the odd $8.00 click.
