Hi I am curious to see how many Adsense publishers are as addicted to Google Adsense as I am. I re-wrote an article on the subject recently and would like to know what other publishers think. Are you as effected as I am or do you have a handle on your addiction. The link to the article: Google Adsense Addiction I have a poll going as well.
I voted "I am, but I'm getting a handle on it," but I need to use it on a daily basis. I always have websites running and dieing (sites I decide I want up, and sites I no longer want to care for)... so it's a continuous process for me.
I check my account every couple of days. If I was having more success, I'd probably check it more often, but I'm finding my Google income isn't that great ;(
I never count on adsense as my main revinew. The clicks are relative to my daily traffic which is relative to thats days search engine search results. I have gone frm 100's$ per day to 10$ a day. Bloody fustrating at times.
Was totally addicted at one point but nowadays I find it hard to get excited by the measly few bucks average I earn daily from my adsense sites.
Hows this for having it bad. I just got an email from a guy in the UK. He isnt a fulltime Internet Marketer like me. he has a 9 to 5 job as a shop assistant. But while he is at work he has his girlfriend message him each time his clicks go up. Geez poor girlfriend. And keep in mind that he gets a lot of 4cent clicks. So in reality his addction is costing him money. He pays 10cents for the sms and gets paid 4cents for a click.
if anyone's earning >$1000/day, who wouldn't be addicted? I don't make that much but I'm extremely addicted, and adsense's the drug.
I use to be addicted, but then knowing I wont see that money for another 6 weeks, I just gradually started checking maybe twice a week.
I used to check my adsense like crazy but now I got adsense notifier and I just have to look down an there's my balance.
