I had a big single click of 1.57 yesterday! I added some pictures above the adsense and it's upped my click-thru rate nicely. Only 3 clicks but they all added up to $1.98 which can't be bad!
I've just installed an image hosting script on one of my sites which will get the ads treatment when it gets a few users, for now it can collect names and emails for each registered user so that might worth something too! the list the list!
My topsites directory is going well, over 70 sites listed there and 3 lots of adsense ads which bring in a few pennies a day. The best thing about adsense for me? putting it on a page I was going to make anyway and knowing that over the period of the year it will bring in a few dollars. I make quite a lot of sites and information pages for my elottery affiliates which tend to get viralled when they have something useful on them so an extra bit of income from something I was already doing is fine by me!
I've also created a splash page for my free go on the elottery site and adjusted the code so other elottery members can use it too, that's gonna help with increasing page rank and the link to my team portal is on every page view so when that gets some sweet traffic I will add a small non-competitive advert on there too.
one more... I coded a fair rotator script to be used with the forum team, the stats have an adsense module on that too so another one to add to the "set and forget" list.
only around 10 dollars a week coming in but that's 500 bucks a year for stuff I was already going to do anyway. oh, there's some income coming from my xbox 360 swiki too so I made a new swiki that should attract a higher adsense rate. I'm just linking to it from my high PR sites so it gets noticed quicker and then it should make me some more pennies.
wouldn't it be nice to have 10 dollars a day coming in? as long as I keep doing what I'm doing then I see no reason why that target wont be reached by March 2007.
