My Journey to Becoming Rich with Google Adsense

January 9th: $0.51

2011-01-10T19:36:00.000-06:00

Page impressions: 1,270
Ad clicks: 2

Classes have started and I still haven't been able to add to Hubpages! I must be spending too much time writing for Break Studios. The lure of an instant $8 is just too high.

Page impressions: 1,213
Ad clicks: 2

My page impressions is back up to normal along with 2 ad clicks for yesterday. I wonder if the lesser-paying clicks are the result of this blog being popular in Germany and South Africa, where a click could very well be worth less than in other countries such as the U.S.

Page impressions: 1,051
Ad clicks: 3

Three ad clicks but still only 49 cents. Oh well. I meant to put up some more Hubpages articles but didn't have the time. I need to get to it because classes begin again for me in a couple days.

Page impressions: 1,030

My number of page impressions is decreasing. I'm going to try and add more content on Hubpages soon, so that should help.

Page impressions: 1,041
Ad clicks: 1

One seven-cent click. I think linking Google Analytics to my Adsense account will help me understand these numbers and how to improve them. I'll need to get around to doing that.

Page impressions: 1,212
Ad clicks: 3

As you may have noticed, Adsense hasn't been treating me too well lately. I received 3 ad clicks yesterday that only totaled 19 cents. This is something that I need to be able to fix. I just need to figure out how.

Days like this happen, I suppose, but I shall overcome! This is my first day earning nothing in over a week.

Page impressions: 1,413
Ad clicks: 2

Two ad clicks, as usual. The only thing worth saying about yesterday's earnings is that they are about what I expect on an average day with the current amount of content I have contributing to Adsense.

2011-01-02T17:17:00.005-06:00

Page impressions: 1,502
Ad clicks: 2

This is more normal - not good of course, but normal. There were 1,502 page impressions with 2 ad clicks. As you can see, each of these clicks was worth much less than the previous day. This is more typical...unfortunately. It's interesting to note that I received 300 more page impressions than the previous day, but that does not matter. What matters is the number of clicks and their value. Their value is indeterminable by anyone other than Google, therefor it is clear that I must work to maximize ad clicks and not necessarily page views/impressions.

Total Adsense earnings: $5.90

Page impressions: 1,207

Ad clicks: 2

Hi everyone! I just started on Adsense about two weeks ago and this is my very first post here, intentionally done on January 1st. Yesterday, I received 1,207 page impressions and 2 clicks which earned a total of $2.83. One of the clicks was worth $0.93 and the other was $1.90. These are both much higher than usual - average per click is more like $0.50. However, this total of $2.83 is still very motivating and gives me a little taste of what it will feel like when I am able to earn at least this much every day.

This brings my total Adsense earnings as of yesterday to $5.52
