Adsense - My first earnings
Although I’ve been dabbling in the web for quite a while now, I have so far steered clear of Adsense as a means of making money, but recently I put up some pages as an experiment just to see whether I could generate a few clicks and see how the whole thing worked.
That was a few days ago and to be honest, I had forgotten about them and it was only when I was editing something else that I remembered them.
So I was pleased to find when I logged into my Adsense account that I had actually earned my first money from some Adsense clickthroughs. Now I’ll be honest, it’s less than a dollar and equates to only around 10 cents a click, but the really exciting thing to me is that it cost me nothing apart from time. I built the pages for free using a little of my own existing contant and a few articles from other authors (all fully accredited) and then I linked the pages into my existing domain and just left them waiting for Google to spider them. You’ll find the pages here.
Now I have a click-through rate of 3.5% and a tiny bit of money in the bank. So what will I do next? Learn how to really make them sing!
To do that I’ve just downloaded and I’m working through Joel Comm’s brilliant guide to Adsense Google AdSense Secrets 3.0 ebook
I’ll keep you posted here as things progress.
To our success - Andrew
