Okay! Be honest! Tell us how many frequent you logged in to Google Adsense Account to check your earnings! I've just started using Adsense, and hmm... as a newbie, I believe I've checked my account every 30 minutes! (Provided my boss aint looking!) but earning still not that great yet... but slowly picking up.
I check my AdSense status every couple minutes. Well, not me... For Firefox - http://code.mincus.com/3/adsense-notifer/ For Google Desktop - http://desktop.google.com/plugins/i/adsensestatus.html Personally I like the desktop addon more.
Ahh, that's really useful!! Thanks! I've just downloaded a widget for Yahoo Widget Engine to check my Adsense Account too. See it here.
I have a severe problem with checking stats way to often. New firefox update no shows CPC in the toolbar But I was not aware of google desktop plug-in, I think it just made my day, thanks Shadow
This is related to: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=14341 I use http://www.monetizers.com/adsense-tracking-script.php cause it puts the data in a database so you can see your progress I like to see it grow
this has been discussed several times already. Here's one, here's another, and here's yet another but just for the fun of it, i check 3 times a day.
Hey, I have just installed the desktop plug-in. What now?? Does it pop-up every now and then with an update? Or, do I have to switch it on somewhere?? Couldn't find any new option under preferances.
I had to download the Google Desktop and I got scared when I saw a % so I clicked and it was indexing stuff on my computer! WTF is up with that? So I turned it off at 5%.
Nothing to be scared of. Google Desktop indexes all your files on your computer, your emails, your Gmail (if you want) and any network files too, if you choose those as well. Then, you can use Google Desktop to search all of those and find things easily. Ex: if you search for "dfsweb" you will then find all emails that you have sent me. Oh, and you can also get it to index your internet files so it watches and record everything you do, everyone you email, everything you think! Anyway, anobody know how to switch on the damn Adsense tracking thingy in Google Desktop? EDIT: Correction, I found it when I turned the sidebar on
Well I use the firefox adsense plugin. So my stats are updated constantly at the bottom right hand side of my screen. Makes checking as easy as looking at it. Plus if you right click on it, it will open up and login to your account for you. Brad
apart from the Google Desktop and firefox plugin, i have the reports emailed to me everyday. i login to adsense once in a week though..
I checked it like 10 days in 5 hours when I got my account validated. Fun to know you can't make much money when you just installed those ads. By the way, thanks for pointing me out that firefox plugin, I'll check it out.
Just after installing the firefox plugin, I go check my adsense account. There's 2.05$ for 2 clicks. MY FIRST MONEY! Nice.
When I got started, I think I kept Adsense open almost all day for weeks on end. Now, I check twice a day. Once about mid morning, and once at night.
