When i started 5 years ago getting a 50 cent day was out of this world. Now if I don't get a $150 day I get very irritated. In 2007 I started a thread asking how many of us are addicted to watching how much we make using Google Adsense. I did another thread in 2008 and I am doing it again in 2009, just to see if Adsense publishers are just as keen to check their Google Adsense stats as they were in the past. I even wrote a post on my blog about it: Are You Addicted To Google Adsense?
i also used it once, but for no reason they banned my account, so i dont like them... i used to earn around 125-150$ per day...
$3 to $5 is not huge, but better than 0.01 cent earnings from Google Adsense as now a days, you can see these types of earnings very often..
I'm very addicted, haha! It happens I check it 10 times a day I don't know why I waste my time doing that though
Oooops sorry about that Crafty Blogger. I must have been very tired last night. Here is the link to the article: http://www.net-income.com.au/google-adsense-interest
Adsense fever is quite a serious problem for some. Some publishers become extremely obsessed with Adsense and there are stories of some publishers checking their Adsense account fifty or more times a day. It can get to you especially if you want to work so much. But the obsession can really distract you from the more important task of working and expanding your site and the money making task of promoting it.
Well I like the way of making money through adsense. It's wonderful. I check my earning daily. Although I won't earn much but it's increasing in steady pace. But I am not totally addicted to it.
I use to be addicted but once my account got disabled I was really annoyed but o well it don't matter I still make money
Haha, i thought it was only me, i too check many times a day, i leave it open in a tab lol. Wish i was up to 150 a day. How many sites do you have?
I used to be addicted. checking earning around 5-6 times a day and sometimes even more. Now its around 1-2 times a week. Like adsense and Google evolved I too evolved!!!
I check my earnings at least 5 times per day, it still gets me excited to see some of my plans payoff.
Fantastic to see that I am not the only one. But I am a lot better than I was. On my worst days I would be checking my stats 5 or 6 times a day. These days I check in the morning and then just before I go to bed. Infact I can tell how much my daily income will be, is to see how much I got the night before. Today, I am much more in control and spend most of my time generating content that attracts traffic and then I put the ads right in their face. I have a ctr as high as 43% on one of my sites. For years I couldn't get past the $100 a day, but by developing content that attracts heaps of traffic I have been able to average more than $400 a day One of the most important factors is targeting niches that have the highest paying keywords. I made up a list of over 1000 keywords that Google pays very highly for. If you are interested, PM me and I will let you get them through a backdoor on my website. Also, Testing sizes and colors of your Adsense ads on your website is vital. So test size and colour combinations until you have ads that are producing a ctr of 10% or better. Cheers Steve
I used to check it alot but I try not too now. It's more surprising when you log in less and see some earnings
