I actually got a couple clicks.

    I've been struggling to get any clicks at all pretty much. I finally figured out how to put an ad at the top of my blog. I just had to experiment in the template and kept putting the ad in different spots until it turned out. I'm sorta starting to understand the template and where things need to be placed. I made .24 cents so far today. Someone even clicked on a referral that I put at the top too. How lame is that being excited about .24 cents. I must be 5 years old...just kidding. It just makes me think when I get more people to view it I might actually make a little money. There just might be hope...lol.

    That's the way to go, multiply that by 500 before the end of the month and you'll get a check on 25th may :)
    Just joking, it might take you one more month or two to get to the 100$ threshold, but after that the time needed to earn 100$ will be shorter and shorter if you continue to improve your knowledge of AdSense and if you expand your network of sites (ie. not having only one blog)

    Yeah now is more of a learning process. I plan on having lots of blogs. I was just really worried yesterday because I was getting 1 cent a click and I thought that is just not worth it. The clicks were worth more today so maybe it will be worth investing more time into.

    Well, as they say, Rome wasn't built in one day. :D

    P.S. Referral buttons are uuuuuuuugly. I got rid of all of mine after the first day. Doesn't it spoil the look of your site?

    Good for ya! Hey, $0.24 is money. Don't worry, you get more and more as traffic increase. I'm happy enough if I don't see $0.00 at the end of the day :D

    I've been going to the site blogexplosion. Someone told me I could end up being accused of invalid clicks but I don't know how. Plus I have found no other way to get people to go to my blog. There must be sites to go to but I don't know them. Blogexplosion has only been online for two weeks. I would like to find one like it that has more members. I have two blogs on there now. The second one is waiting for approval.

    Yes those referral buttons are ugly. I managed to find one that fit the color I have red and the referral is red and orange. Someone clicked on it when I put it to the top and if it is who I think it is they will make $ pretty quickly. I had put my blog up on a message board that I go to all of the time. I also noticed they had no google ads on there board. The day after I had the click on my referral button they had google ads on the board. I was hoping the owner of the board would notice my referral buttons. I know she needs some extra money to keep running the board. Who knows if it was her but you never know.

    referral button should match the site theme. for example of you have a technology them then firefox button is fine, if you have a seo blog then you can have all sorts of money making buttons, but any place else would just make ur site money oriented.
