    Hi all,

    It's true! If I dont get my fix of Adsense everyday, I go into withdrawals and hide away in some dark corner, wondering what have I done wrong and this adsense thing is a load of sh_t.

    Im a Google Adsense Addict. If I don't reach at least $20 a day, everyone in my house has to watchout. I check my stats 100 times a day, getting more and more depressed as I watch the clicks mounting 10 at a time, but the cash accumilating at 3 cents a click. I put hours and hours into this thing and I cant give it away, even if I wanted to. It has a hold of me. Google has got me addicted :eek:

    Am i alone. What symptoms do you have. Are you making any money and what helps you get through each day as a Adsense Junky?

    I'm addicted to it as well. I check it way too many times per day. I probably spend enough time checking it that I could write at least two blog spots instead.

    I check about twice a month. Adwords on the other hand, I check 10 times a day.

    I think thats a bit over the top. Is this your principal income, do you have a main job?

    In the beginning I found myself checking it all day long. A couple years later and I only check it once in the morning, and once at night.

    My site has recently experienced a windfall of traffic and Adsense clicks. I find myself getting up and running into my home office to check stats all day long. It's a healthy obsession, I guess.

    My experience with it is one day 20 bucks next day $3.40. When it reaches $3.40 I panic and think, "what have I done wrong, Im doing what the gurus say to do". I make a few bucks a month, but man! I would love this thing to be a bit more constant.

    Check my stats for the 50th time today :)

    Hehe I know whay you mean by thinking "what have i done wrong" whenever its low.
    One thing that I found out that seem pretty consistent is that usually after a day with lots of clicks and money, I get a day or two with very low clicks and money. And then it goes like that, still i have consistent traffic. Weird!

    I think you will find that at the end of the month everything is remarkably consistent despite the wild flactuations daily flactuations that you speak of.

    I never check it.
    I have the totals showing on my browser already.. as long as they keep climbing, I really don't care about adsense

    Do you have more dollars at the end of the day if you check stats 100 times?

    After sometime you will be little less excited about it and probably check less often. I remember my first couple of dollars.. it meant more to me then what multiples of it means now. I still check 2-3 times a day..more if I add a new site.
