How often do you check AdSense stats?

Hi. My name is Tyler, and I'm an Earnings-Stats-Check-A-Holic.

I usually check AdSense once every 10-15 minutes... what about you guys?

[cyberprosper]

hourly, I guess. Pretty sad, I know. :)

I like looking at it... answering some emails and stuff, and then hitting REFRESH to see how much it has gone up. That is FUN!

Before anybody says it, I do get out. In fact, just last week I went to the end of the driveway to pick up last month's newspapers. I had to use my pickup to carry them all.

lol u crazy ppl, while i would love to do that oo, i have to attend college. So unless google makes adsense available via WAP or GPRS , i have no option but to check once in the morning and then just b4 going 2 sleep.

pssst, sometimes i do sms my frnd to tell me wats going on during the day if i cant take the suspense.

It's possible to check Google Stats over GPRS using the current Google Adsense site.

I use a Pocket PC H3970 (connected via Bluetooth to my Nokia 3650) or sometimes my Sony Ericsson P800 (Opera browser).

But this is when I'm away from my desk. Otherwise I hit the refresh button every 30 minutes :)

Way more often than is productive. :)

Recently because of my low CTR plight once every hour but usually twice a day or so.

Too often.

Once a day is plenty for me.

There are a number of programs (most free) that have been developed that automatically check and report your earnings. One I tried even put a small window in your status bar with the amount and "rang a bell" every time the amount changed. Instant gratification for all the "Earnings-Stats-Check-A-Holic" :-).

Check around on this and other forums dealing with AdSense. That is where I found most information on the programs.

Anyone for a "SMS me when I reach $X" feature? That would make life interesting... That and a time stamp on the page so I can see how far they are running behind.

Once a day at least to determine if I can afford lunch on Google's dime. But when I am bored in the office, I click my site, check my email, and check the number of Google impressions to get an idea of pageviews {multiply Google's number by 1.5} several times a day (maybe three to four times}

[Dolemite]

About every hour for me, during my wakeful hours.

I'd probably check it more often if they didn't log you out so quickly.

I thought I was bad at a couple times a day!

I should probably only look once a week, because otherwise I'm setting myself up for disappointment because my CTR is so low. I think it will be a LONG time before I see the actual money out of this program.
