three more cents . . .
May 26th 2008 13:41
i just checked my adsense account and i only have three more cents to go until i hit my first ten dollars . . . woohoo!
i know this sounds like small fry but i think its exciting, proof that gradually people are reading more and more of what i write . . . its been nearly three months and im a pretty consistant blogger and if adsense is any indication of progress then i can conclude that the orble admin did not lie and readership really DOES go up exponentially over the life of the blog . . . even in the early stages
average earnings per day during the month of March = $0.02
average earnings per day during the month of April = $0.10
average earnings per day during the month of May = $0.25
ive been getting into the swing of things and building a rapport with other orblers, i have a few subscribers and i sometimes post links to my articles on myspace or facebook . . . i have four blogs now which are all on their own domains, and three of them were existing domains from the inactive blog list
to see where i was at a month ago CLICKHERE
im a nerd and i like my stats so im just gunna do a quick comparison (below) where i can see my volume of posting has slightly decreased but the hits are fairly steady or increasing . . . for me a huge part of the appeal of orble is that i get all these stats so i can monitor my progress

I have no idea what I'm worth though I dare say it can't be much.
But 25cents a day Morgan? You'll be earning more than those kids in the Chinese sweatshops in no time.

if you go to the google homepage up in the top right corner theres an option to sign into your account and you use the gmail address you created with its password (if you can remember them)
isnt it cute how impressed i am with the itty bitty amount? haha

i like doing a progress report every once in awhile . . . new people sometimes contact me and ask me about stats and earnings and other nuts and bolts and bits and bobs so i thought it might give others an idea of what to expect in the first 3 months

i wonder if a non-troll raised the same points if the same instant dis-belief would apply?
is the answer to this question Damo . . . oops intellectuals and scientists dont name names or define things specifically . . . oh and theyre not sposed to answer questions which are not related to the original post . . . get out of here Ruby, you are leading me astray!

Definintely when your cat is famous, she'll be googled quite frequently.
I dunno... I've always gotten good traffic with animals, video games, and body modifications.

yes im still having an online war with Fog over the whole bogan debarcle that still goes on to this day . . . much like this post i just wanted to see what it would feel like to write and publish a blatant "revenge post" . . . it had a certain charm to it
whitney,
you are going really well, i think youre a natural blogger . . . i can imagine all the techy nerds out there googling the video games . . . you keep the good work up too!

Anyway, suddenly there it was US$100 *laughs* just after the US dollar dropped to it's lowest conversion rate ever... *chuckle* none-the-less some income earned and only a smidge of agro .. I was lucky I guess.
Roll on the next $100, hopefully before the American dollar drops below the Australian one *cringe*

thanks for keeping with the theme of "3" by leaving three comments! BAHAHAhaha
i love it!
and good things come in threes dont they?
thanks also for the compliment on my remodelling of Deep Pencil . . . it kind of just evolved as my miscellaneous blog, where the posts dont have to be particularly important . . . but it seems sometimes when youre not trying the most important things come out!
the banner is courtesy of the lovely Cheryl!
it is encouraging to hear that someone with a quality blog (you!) has managed to reach the big $100 . . . theres hope for us all if we put our minds to it!
thanks for stopping in and sharing the love!
