Hi, I bought a free image hosting website. Reprogrammed it, instead of hotlinked images, I deliver full page with image. traffic from 100 uniques day, got to somethere 3000 a day. And signed for google adsense. Google adsense confirmed website, i put ads on website. But instead of ads it shows empty space. I wroted to google adsense support. Questions: * How much time usually needed to get google adsense reply? * I am not doing anything against google TOS, right? * How much $$$ I can expect with 3000 visits a day, and really really bad traffic. 60% is china origin, not classified etc. give me low estimate.
Content is few normal pages. And also pages with 1 image per page. Is that ok, for google? Website URL: http://www.heyimage.com
Seems not banned. Now adsense shows, that I got 1 impresion. But still blanks everythere. Is it posible with 3000 visits a day, china origin, from adverts revenue to pay 75$ a month vps server costs?
With 3000 visits a day, I am surely you would get atleast $75 a month if not more. I would say around $100 or more.... but for the google ads not showing is a mystery to me. Try putting the adsense ad on another website to see if you are banned. Maybe the website it self is banned before you bought it. (The previous owner might have not mention that his google account was banned while using that website).
Thanks for support. Nice to know, that server expenses will be paid, so I can develop a site without loosing money. Previous owner account was not banned, it showed ads. I removed them, and then after 2 days created my account, and added adsense. To put ads here on page with 1 image, is not against google TOS? http://www.heyimage.com/viewer.php?file=opwiymwvcc08mx9w710e.jpg
my ads are not showing too more than 4 days i think (unused domain) and more than 3 days and the dns nameservers are not updating for another domain....everything is so slow this days...
Today got from google adsense, one more email, that I have been confirmed, but ads still not show. Let's hope they will show ads on monday. Maybe they celebrating christmas already.
Just a thought, try to add your domain name into adsense 'allow sites' , in case you've accidentally disabled the feature to show ads.
I've had a lot of experience with free image hosting sites and let me tell ya'.... You will NOT make a lot of money. Even if you put the ads in a good spot CTR may sometimes Depend on the niche when you create a site. Freee image sites are really bad with CTR! Most of your clicks will be for $.01-..$10 every blue moon you'll get a $.50 click. But chances of you getting alot of clicks isn't likely. You may want to try CMP instaed. pop ups and pounders may irritate your visitors but you'll make more $$. (Try Adbrite or a good CPM network))
