Hubbers, do you have any suggestions about how to increse your earnings on Google Adsense.
My page views are increasing, but I am not seeing where this is having any impact on my earnings. My earning is still $0.00.
It took me over six months to get any clicks on Adsense and nearly 18 months to reach payout.
On the other hand, others succeed faster. It depends how good you are at keywords, SEO, backlinking and all the other non-writing stuff that seems to be far more important than the quality of your writing itself these days.
You haven't even hit 1,000 views yet. On average, you can expect anywhere from a 1-5% CTR (click through rate). And that's only on views from search engines.
And since you've got less than 1,000 views, you might've only had 300 views - and all of them might be from Hubpages. And other hubbers don't click adverts.
I'd recommend checking out this hub.
I would suggets other adsense avenues like blogging, it's free and you can't post anything on a blog.
I'll take a closer look at blogging, Cardisa.
I meant to say you CAN post anything on a blog
I'm definitely getting higher click amounts on my other sites..bidders are not being directed here or they don't see the value yet.
Google is punishing us for some reason
I hope someone who is earning big will let us in on the secret !

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.

one of my friend has got almost 10.000 views from his around 100 hub in 5 months. But not a single click yet. Is is possible or any error? I am confused. What is your normal click through range? I believe what ever the topics or keywords are in every 100-300 organic views one can get at least...

I was loving that my traffic was doubled for a while... it was hitting levels I had never seen before on HubPages.But today I just noticed it's down at least 1,000 views, and I check pretty much every day.I'm not sure what could have caused this but the only thing I've done different is I've been...

First off, I reached 1/2 of my payout today, so that is very exciting! Thank you all for the advice so far, but I am in need of more. I am a little concerned, because I earned from two clicks this morning from a very low traffic hub. I thought that was really weird when I saw how much I had earned...
