Now just need to get the traffic rolling.
Sorry for this outburst, it just tickled me funny :)P
Now if I can do that a hundred more times I'll get my first check.
That does not diminish that your area was lower and now it is higher with the same traffic. I would not get too excieted until I saw my avg go up fow several days in a row.
WOW! Are you a premium publisher.
I've seen $3 clicks on adsense... but I don't have much traffic on my site though...
do you guys use cpm to drive traffic to your sites?
It makes sense, they very well could track both the search engine and the keyword people use to arrive on your page.....
I am just unable to analyse where it comes from because when the detailed stats are available I'm lost with bigger numbers... and saddly enough much Much MUCH lower EPC.
This snapshot and some other strange things I saw even got me to the point that I suspect that what is really happening is that I'm getting individual clicks of around 20 or even 25 USD.
My volume of prints and CTR are not very high so I guess that combined with such high value clicks, it explain the rather erratic revenues I see. Varions from x to 10x daily. Tough for the heart.
Anyone seeing the same kind of things?
I had a click today whose commission was $1.05
Probably not. Google sometimes delays some parts of the stats ... so if you had three clicks but Google was only showing one then your conclusion is incorrect. You have to look at stats over a wider timeframe than a few minutes.
...days I only got one click on this new page (before Google indexed it). Some days the single click would earn over $1.00 for me
I think my niche is getting MORE competetive
I was just curious.... how did people learn about your page even before you have your page indexed?
Did you ever hear of the term type-in? That is how I do it on many sites. I have some sites not indexed at all in the SE's and no links but they still get traffic.
Type-ins go to real words and real terms but rarely to made-up words (except for some popular made-up word websites), which is why made-up word domains are usually of no value.
People type-in the url directly into their browser window to see if there is a website there. If no active site then an MSN search is automatically done (assuming the IE browser has not been reconfigured), which requires indexing in the MSN search engine to find your listing.
The words may also be typed-in to a Google search box but that requires the url to first be indexed by G, whereas browser type-ins of course do not need SE indexing.
This to me at least - is really what smart pricing is all about
Even if you had only one click showing for the day there is no guarantee that Google is not carrying some clicks over to the next day... or a few days later.
What makes you think they might be doing this? I've seen other people mention the possibility, but not seen anyway to confirm if this actually happens.
What is beyond doubt is that a few hours into the day you can't draw the conclusions drawn in the original post.
Say I have a stat line saying
Prints : 10 ; Clicks : 1 ; Revenues : 1USD
Are you saying that we can not say that that very one click has been paid 1USD?
In what way would the fact that some clicks have been carried forward or backward or whatever influence the ratios?
Are you saying that they could carry the number of clicks but not the associated revenues or vice versa?
Thanks.
Are you saying that they could carry the number of clicks but not the associated revenues or vice versa?
Yes.
In your example you could check your stats at the end of the day and it could say
Prints : 1000 ; Clicks : 5 ; Revenues : 1USD
Are you saying that they could carry the number of clicks but not the associated revenues or vice versa?
