Everyone share you Google Adsense stories - how much you make and your strategies!
Guys please share this with caution if you do - it's against AdSense terms to publish your stats...
But some have revealed their earnings. Just scroll previous post.
Its stats that is disallowed, not earnings.
Just a quick one. You are allowed to show your earnings, just not your CTR, and CPM. Everything else is fair play.
you can not show your earnings as displayed by google adsense, however you can show you check amount.
Ohh good point, you dont need to reveal how much you make. Just what your strategies are and if Google Adsense is really worth it!
We make $300-$400 a month from Adsense, and I haven't done a lick of work on any of those sites in months.
Passive income - gotta love it.

P.S. And Adsense isn't our only source of income online - all together, it adds up to over $1000 each month, sometimes over $2000. For a few hours of work a month at most. So the answer is, yes it's worth learning the ropes ...
I saw your profile and I believe the income you mentioned is from your blogs/sites mentioned on your profile. Or you have any other sites too other than these?
Wow! I can retire permanently here with those amounts. Any secrets?
how come you don't work a few hours a week and make 4x's what you're making now? I'm going to read your blogs. What's your rough percentage of earnings from hubs verses your other blogs?
I have few hubs but haven't seen one cent yet.
And believe me writing in English is not easy for me.
Hope to learn from you :-)
Are we paid by so many clicks or ??
Seriously I see Ive got plenty of red arrows n 2 clicks, an no cents...not likin this story so far
The red arrows on your Hub account are traffic (nothing to do with clicks). As for clicks with no cents - it's either because the person clicked on an ad that was such a low amount your share was less than a cent, or because the person who clicked is a habitual clicker who doesn't buy, and Google filters those clickers to protect their advertisers.
I had a look at your hubs, and you write poetry. No one makes money from poetry (this has been the case for centuries). Even Shakespeare made no money from his sonnets - all his earnings came from his plays (he owned a share of the production company and got a percentage of the takings - good businessman was Shakespeare).
Specifically looking at poetry and Adsense, it's very hard for Adsense to serve up ads based on poetry because so much metaphor and other devices are used. I'm sure if you put up Wordsworth's "I wandered lonely as a cloud" next to Adsense, it would conclude that the poem was about weather and gardening and serve up those ads. But who on earth reading that poem would click a gardening ad? You see the problem?
You need to accept that you won't make any money from poetry. The best thing to do is simply write it for pleasure, and write commmercial writing (product reviews etc) for profit. Keep the two writings separate and there won't be any frustrations and you'll be liberated to write whatever poetry you want without worrying about money.
The only people who get frustrated online are those trying to monetize things that can't (and perhaps shouldn't) be monetized. Politics is another example - I have a politics blog and don't make a cent from it, I simply do it for civic participation. And I'm perfectly happy about that as I make some money from commercial writing. There are some things that have to be done for free, not everything can be monetized.
Mine's too low, so not worth mentioning. But the good news? My earnings increased by 300% when i started the 30-30, and im just over halfway through. Mmmmmmm, nice.
My biggest month with Google was last month which was a little over $300 dollars because my traffic picked up on my blog. So far I am averaging $100-$200 a month with Google.
last month i made €3.55 in adsense, this month i am now standing on €6.98,it's not much to call about, but if it keeps on increasing, i am a lucky man.
Im not too far from my first payout on my personal Adsense account..... thats got to be an achievement I guess. This month I am earning at a rate which is equivalent to reaching payout each 6 weeks.... I want to get this to monthly payout as soon as possible.

If I get a click on a Google ad on one of my hubs, does it reflect immediately on my Adsense report page or is it held by Hubpages until the end of the month or thereabouts. Just curious because I am getting a lot of page views and no clicks.

Looking forward for my application to be accepted by Google. Well it has been rejected many times, but I continue to make more hubs just because it's fun and I love writing. I would like to know your different success stories not just about Google Adsense application but rather, I want to know your...

I was refraining about talking about this but it really is bad. Last month with adsense was my most profitable month, but this month so far I got 3 clicks...What could have made this change?-New Hubpages Layout?-April 1st Conflicker Virus? I was thinking these two things can't be so harmful to my...

My adsense earnings have reduced from dollars to only a few cents per month. Revenue used to average about 40 cents per click, now it is only one or two cents per click, if there is any click at all. Just wondering if it is the same for everyone.

There has to be some explanation for the way my(and others) PPC, CTR, and other statistics are so variable. (totally different all the time)For some reason, I noticed "many times" when my traffic is high and ctr is better, the PPC is bad. However, inversely, when my traffic is lower and...

What Happened To Google AdSense Earnings?I have seen my Google AdSense Earnings drop off a cliff, while my Hub views have been unchanged and up nicely at times. What happened to Google AdSense Earnings? Did they change their policies? Back to only clicks earnings money, rather...
