Google Ads

[Mr_Pleasington]

Just to add my two cents on the main topic here.  I barely even noticed the google ads when they first appeared and they certainly don't detract from the site.

Hardly Noticeable + Making Money For One of My Favorite Sites = A Good Thing.

I use Firefox and I see the ads.  (P.S. I don't mind the ads. There is advertising everywhere else so I don't really even notice them. And earning $$$ is always good.)

Site no longer slow.  I now see ads.  Not sure what changed.

[Spriggan]

hehe, IE 7 disables Google Adds.

[Entsuropi]

Wonder how long that'll last. M$ and Google are shaping up to be real competitors now, what with Google hiring programmers who have worked on both internet browsers and Linux operating systems.

Is anyone open to the suggestion that the thread "Messing With Google's Head" in "everything else" is just a deceitful way of making money?! Fellfrosch DID create the thread. And he IS the (co?) owner of the site. Hmmmm.....?

[Faster Master St. Pastor]

He created it after comeone else suggested it (a couple pages back on this thread). Besides, how can it be a scam if Google knows full well that they will give him money, and the money is being used for strict time wasting?

[fuzzyoctopus]

I suggested it, because it's funny.  Has the site made any decent money from them, yet?

[Spriggan]

We've made some money, though we really won't know how consistent the ad revenue will be until we have a month or two's worth of figures.  I think by the end of March or April we should have a decent idea on what the average amount earned per month will be.

[Fellfrosch]

For those who are curious, we get paid monthly, on a two month delay: i.e., our January check will arrive in March. January's check is not huge, but it's enough to make the ads worthwhile.

So, ya, whats the info on that? How much has our clicking through every once in a while made?

Yes, I know, I'm a necromancer, may your scorn attract lice to your head.

[Spriggan]

We're not going to release exact numbers, or even rough figures, on how much we're making via the Google adds.

I can tell you that we made more in the first two weeks then we have any month after that.

[Faster Master St. Pastor]

Which is to say not very much?

[Spriggan]

Which is to say more then we originally thought but less then we thought after the first 2 weeks.

[Faster Master St. Pastor]

Gotcha, shutting up now.
