    I know quite a few hubbers have also been 'scooping' their hubs at this site and just wondered if any others had witnessed the following.

    I've had a few adsense clicks via shetoldme.com but each one (within adsense) displays '0' impressions, '0.00' CTR and '£0.00' ECPM.

    This is the first time I've witnessed this sort of behavior, can't really explain why this would be so, and wondered if I was alone in seeing this?

    Many thanks.

      I set up a seperate channel for shetoldme.com last night, I had not bothered previously. So I will keep an eye on it and let you know if I experience similar.

        Thanks Ryan, I appreciate it, I'm sure it's fine but I'm a little wary of anything that doesn't interact with my adsense account in the way it should.

        Maybe i should do that.
        Do i do it just the same way as i do for my hubs here. Do we add it in the same 'add new channels' box, or must there be a totally different account for it?

    prolly cuz SHE told you.  smile
    sory, I cant be of any real help, it hasn't happend to me. Hope you get it figured out and can block the site/person or whatever. What are they getting out of this? That is so random?
    Oh, actually, I have had clicks resulting in 0 earnings. But no sehetold me.com. I have no idea if that means anything?

              Well as we're talking about feet in mouths, allow me to pointlessly spam a link to one of my hubs. wink

              <snipped - oh Mrvoodoo, you know better!>

    Some hubber has their profile on the front of that site, which might explain the traffic from shetoldme.com.  Looks like another site similar to digg and Facebook perhaps.

      Mrvoodooposted 14 years agoin reply to this

      I think many hubbers are using it now, it's not the traffic, it's the Adsense stats/clicks that don't seem to be behaving in the way they should.

      Hi SP, loads of us are using it now.... and it is great for traffic, uninvited writer signed about 60 or 70 of us up as her referral (she is now to be found sunning herself in St Tropez, whilst making about $5000 a day from adsense lol)

      The difference between Shetoldme and digg is that people can make adsense revenue from the bookmarks, thats the part that Voodoo is concerned about....

    Yep, mine is doing the same Mr. voodoo, I was wondering about that but havent' had time to try and look into it.  You guys keep me posted smile  Thanks so much!

      Mrvoodooposted 14 years agoin reply to this

      It certainly is some strange behavior, how can you have clicks without impressions?  How can you have earnings with an ECPM of 0, odd, will post here if I find anything out.

    Thanks for the info, Mr. Voodoo. Love your avatar, btw. Loved that movie, too.

      Thanks RedElf, it is a great movie.

      My pleasure, as this is the same for myself and Ladybird I'm guessing it'll be the same for all hubbers.  I'm just trying to decide whether to remove my adsense ID from shetoldme.com or not, I like extra adsense money, even if it's only pennies, but I don't like things that play silly buggers with my adsense account.

      p.s. I like your kitty too, although he looks like he might be about to fall, but don't cats always land on their feet?  or is that toast? big_smile

        Thank you...he's just hanging in there, same as me wink
        We'll both land on our feet, though big_smile either way, LOL

    I've made less than $2 smile I have removed my AdSense from there. I'm keeping my account for what little traffic it brings...

    mine are all still in the queue but...i have noticed an increase in traffic since i started posting them there. now that i am looking at stuff, i noticed that shetoldme is bringing people in based on what it says in my "Who's driving your traffic?" section. i took out my adsense id but am leaving my scoops. shetoldme says that even if they aren't on the front page, people read them.

    I can't tell that I have gotten any traffic at all nor have I gotten any revenue.  I have not removed my account or adsense, but I am letting it sit dormant.
