Is this good for a 5 day old website?

    Hey guys. I started a new (well, right now it's my only website right now) five days ago, on March 3rd. Since then, using AdSense, I've been averaging between $1.50 and $3.15 per day. Is that good for a brand new website, low or high? Thanks!

    It seems alright. How much traffic are you getting to receive that?

    Today's traffic currently is at 3,700 unique visitors. Been relatively the same the past couple of days except for a few days ago we made it to the front page of Digg where we had over 106,000 unique visitors. Too bad I didn't have ads on the site when we got Dugg.

    IMHO, $3 with 3,700 unique visitors is too low. How many pages are you serving daily ?

    You should try getting at least $1 for each 1,000 pages (not visitors).
    If not, maybe a CPM program instead of CPC program would be better for you.
    But if your site is a forum or a picture gallery site, that will be difficult to achieve

    Yeah! I never expected my site to takeoff like that. I've never had a site even break 10,000 per month, and now I've beat that times ten! Thanks digg :D

    Sorry for the double post. A bit of an update for you here, let me you give you the stats of the past 2 days:

    Today so far: $0.36 (it's early morning where I am)
    Yesterday: $6.50
    Day before yesterday: $4.10

    So in my first post, I wasn't very accurate giving my averages.

    in my experience for each 1000 unique visitors you may expect approx 10 US$
    1000 unique visitors per day = 10$/d
    100'000 unique visitors per months = 100x10= 1000$/m

    A friend (husband / wife team ) of mine started a brand new webiste late feb 2007 and got their first 10+ $ / day today ...
    without any special promotion or paid take-off support by any means - just content and clean full SEO and precise adsense optimization, each day more content day after day.
    their daily visitors however are only about 100 or below unique visitors/d but steadily increasing each day.
    generic traffic is increasing thanks to a domain-name relevant main keyword combination SERPS #1 in G out of some 160'000'000 pages 3 days after start of site.

    so if u say u have the adsense-$ as stated below with the rather unusual HIGH traffic, then I would say that your $ is low comapred to the traffic u have

    Istead of speaking about money, you should tell me (us) how u get so many people on your site in just 5 days .
    I am interested on the digg thing too. How do you get in front page? You should have a lot of friends. :D
