I am from india. I have been with adsense since 6 months & i made $17 k in last 6 months. Jan 2006 was the best month for me.. i made 3.7 k in jan,
I am very much happy.. Really i never expected in my life that i will make this much..
My heartful thanks to Google & webmasterworld. I have learnt many things from webmasterworld
What about you friends?
I have to confess that I also have been lurking for years. My website is over 6 years old and I have been using Adsense for over 2 years now. I have been reading your posts here for many years but have not had the time to get involved. I was unemployed two years ago and thinks to Google I still am. I was in Management earning $50,000 plus a year. Now I am earning 4 times that mostly from Adsense. I expect you will here more from me in the future.
I don't think you worked in the management and I don't think you made $50,000 from your job. Why? Because you can't even speak english well.
(no offence please!)
It also sounds suspect, possibly bogus. You were not lurking here as some others did, instead you were not here at all, or were you perhaps under a different member name? If so, why? I do know many India webmasters have been banned by G recently for TOS violations, mostly involving false clicks.
As for the age issue, I'm 21 myself. My site has generated about 230 million ad page views (not every page displays ads) since it's been up. My site will be 1 year old in about 2 weeks (March 7th to be precise).
There's no reason for you folks to always be so suspicious.
>My site gets near about 1 million page views per month
First, congrats on the $17K per month.......a good start!
Second.....achieving 1 million page views per month definitely opens the possibility to a lot more revenue.
I expect about $50K per month from 1 million page views......but, I've been doing it a lot longer than you and expect you to grow your profitability.
My advice for the future is now going to seem "ass over tit", in so much as you should first concentrate on increasing the traffic, after you achieve that look at converting it better ;)
Higher profit from good traffic is much easier to achieve than maximizing profit from fair traffic :)
If they reach 40 million people in a month, you must consider the following:
A person goes to msn.com (1 impression), a person does a search on msn.com (1 impression), if they don't find the results on the first page, they may traverse through x more pages of results (x impressions).
This person will probably do more searches (either the same day, or another day)
Now let's say, on average, that each person does 5 searches a month. That's equal to 10 + 5x. Now lets say on average, people traverse 3 pages, so then that's 10 + 15. That's 25.
You now have 25 page impressions per person. 40 million people in a month, times 25 impressions per person. That's 1 billion impressions per month. So, in a 11 month span, 11 billion impressions.
I said I did 230 million for pages where ads are actually displayed in an 11 month period. That's about 2% of what they've done, using in my theoretic value. In reality probably have many more impressions than that.
But I digress.
Keep it up.

Beginning to think this thread is either a very bad joke by at least 3 members, or else some here do not understand how to read stats.

Sorry that you think my writing skills are not the best. I know I typed "thinks" instead of thanks but other than that it looks fine to me. My education is primarily centered around math and science.
My posts are completely factual. A yearly salary of $50,000 does not require above average writing skills.
The great thing about Adsense is that there are no limits to the amounts that you can earn. NO CAPS.
17k $ in 6 month becomes 17k per month at the end of the thread.
230 million impressions in 11 months first becomes visitors then becomes per month as people discuss it.
And since when is writing good English a perquisite for a management job or a high earning site?
Do you know where he/she worked? Do you know how he developed his content? Do you know if his site is even in English?
8k visitors a day each viewing 4 pages will give you the one million impressions a month, is it too hard to achieve in a short period?
Instead of encouraging them to tell more about their success and benefit everyone else we chase them with torches.
Congratulations Adsenseindia and G_Smitty, please share your key earnings ingredients and show your gratitude by action not words.
in addition, i find it most brutal to accuse (non english/american) members of bad spelling. it is absolutely not tolerable to do so! and besides in this case without any reason.
personally, i don't like these threads, "hey i made big bucks out of adsense. i thank no one and i just wanted to show off that i'm the coolest guy in india.."
this certainly only provokes the jealousy. yes, some members say, that this is an inspiration for them. but a little more commitment concerning the hard facts of how you did achieve that would be more helpful.
He seems secretive:)

As for the management guy's poor English, it looked fine to me. Maybe he just doesn't type fluently. I'd bet on him being American anyway.
We have every right to be suspicious. But when tinged with jealousy it doesn't wear so well.
Remember that this is a worldwide forum and English is NOT everyone's native language which does not open them up to immediate distrust.
Sheesh, some people, it's getting real old.
