I don't know about the people who tells every1 that social media sites doesn't do good with adsense. For the past 2 months I've hit the FRONT PAGE of Reddit and Stumbleupon quiet often ... Now i've started to get really really insane amount of clicks/impressions on my websites... I hope I shouldnt be worried about anything? cuz its not just the organic traffic u can get visitors from...this is ok right? For experts : Please tell me if this looks okay to you..
The clicks through rates are still low...about 0.65% typical of what you would expect for traffic coming from social bookmarks. Nevertheless, who cares anyway as long as it is providing income. Meaning that if I can have the chance to hit front page, I would grab the opportunity.
Yeah, your ctr is still really low. Traffic from those sites isn't good for your ctr, that's why it's not as good. That said, the increase is certainly welcome as the increase in visitors to your site would drive up the number of clicks regardless.
Regardless of everything else id be worried more if i was getting traffic spikes and on shared hosting.
Why don't you answer his question instead of worrying about screen shots. I've been told that using social networking sites has the potential to get you banned from google adsense. But then I've also been told it doesn't. When I emailed google directly they just sent me a link to the TOS page.
The CTR is low because the traffic is from social bookmarking sites. If you get the same traffic from search engines, then you may see a lot of earnings. And as long as the clicks are legit, you do not have to worry about anything.
that is actually why i made the post....these are legit right..... 25k unique hits and 88 clicks not a big deal right?
Nice traffic. Indeed CTR is low compared to some of my 10% CTR low traffic niches, thats why people think social sites dont earn much and in that repect they dont. If you ask me id be happy with what ur earning anyway. I would fiddle with ad placement and perhaps try an affilaite program or two? as for worrying i see no reason to
Each click seems to be bringing you a very little amount of income. 88 clicks and only $10? Good work though, you are not in danger of anything. Social bookmark traffic is fine.
