Google Adsense Progress

Man. Alex, I owe you dinner. :) At the risk of making some of you out there feel ill because I am making a bit of money from “nothing,” I’ve decided to share my Adsense results up to date. I actually feel bad that I’ve made $100/week just by adding some code to my site. Anyway, this program is incredible. Highly recommended, if you run a high-traffic site. :)

Results so far: Wednesday, July 9, 2003 – Thursday, July 24, 2003

Just think! If every one of the 100 or so people who has access to the private section of my site clicks on a link (e.g., you read this, get excited, and go clicking around. ;), I’ll have enough to… take Alex out to dinner to thank him for introducing me to Adsense. :)



It’s too bad I can’t see what links people are clicking on. Even I’m confused as to who is clicking through from what parts of my site. Amazing, this internet thing is.

    Wow, your click-through rate is really high! .1-.5% is about average from what I understand. I think that your higher click-through rate could be because you have a bunch of photo related ads on your site and photographers are always looking for new gadgets. :)

    I think it’s great you can finally recoup some of your hosting costs, etc. using this program.

    I’ll look forward to that dinner. :)

    I also think it could be travelers who see a “15% off blah” ad when they are searching for dive vacations. Who knows? :)

    Eric, I’m so glad you can profit off my voyeurism. As well as my futzing around when I should be working. ;)
