Adsense Channels - What happens when we run out!?

    Why is there a limit on how many channels we can have!? If I had a choice, I'd have a channel for every ad unit & every link unit! 200 is not enough lol!

    Or use Analytics...I'd rather have more than 200 in Adsense because the reporting is more accurate, but using Analytics is a suitable alternative. In there you can see what the impressions and earnings for each page are. I just wish they would include earnings from Link Units rather than just Ad Units, but maybe that will be a future "enhancement"

    If you are run out a channel just delete some of them or don't create a channel again.Merged them if another good way.

    Apparently, some accounts have been pushed up to a 500 channel limit, although I have not noticed mine upgraded as of the last check.

    I wholeheartedly agree with Adpubster; looking at AdSense performance in Analytics has really helped me improve things on my main site. It's really neat to be able to view performance in almost any way you can imagine.

    Hey thanks I had no idea there was a limit until I read your post.

    But why would you need so many anyway?

    Let's say your site contains 3 ad units and 3 link units on a page. So you need only 6 channels for that. So how did you use all 200 already?

    Having a lot of channel would actually be useful provided that you are really serious on this business.

    I'm going to give Google Analytics a try, I've not explored that avenue yet.

    Actually, I just got an email yesterday, telling me I now have 500 channels instead of 200. You should also get an email soon.

    I got mine a few days ago, too. Judging from the wording, it MAY depend on how many of your original 200 channels you are currently using. I, for one, was maxed out already.
