I usually make about between twenty cents and fifty cents per day on hub, but every once in a while it's a lot more - today was $2.39 - so I assume someone clicked on a link and bought something. Is there a way to find out what link and what they purchased?
I know this is shown on Amazon - I've only sold 2 items, but it's nice to know what they were.
Pat,
Adsense only reports your Adsense earnings. You have to go and log in at Amazon to find out if you have made money there.
Some clicks are worth 5c and others are worth $2.50, depending on the topic.
If you have a Hub about money, health, or dating, then a click there is likely to earn you more than $1.
Pets, kids and hobbies, more like 10c.
Supply and demand.
Of course, price is not everything - a Hub on rabbits with 1000 visitors a week will earn more than a Hub on mesothelioma lawyers with 1 visitor a week.
It sounds as though your high-paying Hubs have low traffic and don't get clicks every single day. Your big earning days are the days when someone clicks on a high-paying ad, I would guess.

Thanks. One article that gets the most views is one I wrote about building stuff with popsicle sticks! How weird is that?! But, if it's the topic, not the views - then I'll have to try to figure out which one was the big winner today and write more of them.
It would be nice if Adsense would at least give us a clue as to what we're selling. Maybe I sold a Pakistani Bride - those ads seem to pop up on all my posts!
The only thing you are selling on Adsense are clicks. Whether or not someone eventually buys something after that click has no bearing on what you are paid. So, the direct answer to your question is no, you can't find out what they bought, it's just not part of how you are paid.
Amazon and Ebay work differently, where you are only paid if someone buys something after they click through.

Mine tends to be Night-time, but considering the amount of traffic from the US I get it must be Daytime over there!

I have noticed that upon removing Kontera from my hubs that my AdSense earnings went up. Kontera seemed pretty useless even when I was earning with it because the click were not really all that profitable. One AdSense click seems to be worth more than a Kontera click even when it's like one of the...

I got into an interesting discussion on another thread, and thought it would make a good thread itself. The question of the day is how do you feel about other hubbers clicking on an ad in your hubs?Personally I really don't see a problem with it as long as the ad interests them from a good quality...

Hi all,Just a short note that hopefully doesn't run afoul of AdSense's rules on telling your earnings.I will say that it took 8-9 months to get my first check from AdSense. My next check should be ready in about a week, and it's only taken 3 months this time.I've tried with various types of Hub...
