Well this thing is rotating in my mind for the past several days :D I have made 16$ in 10 Days via AD Sense (No fraud click and All user driven clicks).

Now a days each and everyone knows about AD Sense. Even I click on AD's on other sites only under the following cases:

* If the site is providing free services and I gets impressed by their services, so instead of donating them (as I don't have any credit card and verified Paypal Account:D), I click on their AD's in order to pay tribute for their services.

* In very very exceptional cases, when I think this AD is displaying something that can be helpful to me, than I click on them. Say, if I am on a CAT Blog/Site and the AD's display Free online Tests for CAT 08 and 09 than only I click them.


Apart from the above 2 cases I never click on AD's even when it's displaying WIn 10,000$ :D

So this is mine psychological aspect of clicking AD's. What's your's? Do you gotta same attitude as mine?

If yes than for sure AD Sense/AD Services are less in yield as compared to their launch (when people gets fascinated after seeing a flash based multicolored and eye catching AD's :D)

Please be free to give out your frank opinions.

Yes, u r right, people like us do not click on ads, or if click then on some of them.

U have given 2 conditions for clicking on ads, but I NEVER click on ads :)

IMO, only people who r new to this field or who r noobs click on those ads. (But, exceptions prevails like urs)

Another thing, IMO, Adsense is nonsense :)

:D

So how other people are making Big Bucks from AD Sense? They tell I am making around 200$ per Month.

I think this is crap. They make 200$ in 4 Months and Boost it by saying in one month. I even placed AD's in between/above the posts/below the posts, you name the place I have placed them their :D

BTW my site got a PR of 3 and I got 500+ Visitors per day. Right Now being frustrated I have shut down the site for few days/months :D

Comments are appreciated and also please give screenshots of your account if you have made big bucks via AD Sense

Well, atleast in blogosphere, adsense is mutual. We help each other out by visiting each other's ads once or twice a day so that we all can earn something for our hard work.

I don't have ads on my site, but I definitely check out ads on my firends' sites.

Ok lemme know one thing correctly.

Suppose a BLOG got 1000+ Visitors today with NO Ad Click at all. But at the last moment of the end of the day, suppose someone clicked on an AD, than the money we get is too much high or too much low?

Please make this clear

Really guys DONT think that if i click the ad of my friends site he will get money

Seriously do u guys know how adsense works..?
I know ..that's why i am asking not to do this kind of foolish task

THEIR WILL BE MANUAL EVALUATION BEFORE THEY GIVE PAYMENT
If there are low conversion rate beyond their target for any publisher
They will ban him/her.....
That;s why many people are banned with 100$ in their amount and many are innocent people.....

Please don't think that once we get amount in our adsense we will actually receive the money

SO PLEASE DONT DO THIS KIND OF WORK ....
U ARE HARMING HIM...

And moreover u are causing loss to the advertiser by ur clicks coz they have to pay via adwords...I feel that it is against ethics ...

And one more thing India,China .... are the believed to be the worst traffic.. that means even though u can get clicks(with lots of luck) but those clicks will not get converted into actual LEADS..

Google is so powerful that even when they release the check they will still perform some manual evaluation and if one fails in that THEY CAN EVEN BOUNCE THE CHECK if the check is not yet withdrawn..

And yes Adsense is Non-sense for blogs
Please don't give me examples of other bloggers who are earning...
There are very few who make money :(

That depends upon the value of the ad displayed and the max auction rate set by the advertiser via google adwords :)

How much are u making bro..?

Some are making HEAVY money via adsense

*labnol.org
He is highest paid adsense publisher in India
Receives around 40,000 rs per day
He is a full time blogger


And our own *ashwinr.com earns 400$/ month

It just depends upon LUCK AND TRAFFIC ORIGIN(US,UK is very nice :D )

And i think even kalpik is making good amount :)
And yes our own Gigacore :D

Well, I have VARIABLE IP ADDRESS and ONLINE PROXIES at my disposal. Besides, its just two clicks per day. I don't think thats fraud.

Besides, unlike those sh!tty doubleclick.net ads, google ads actually make lots of sense. Especially those in gmail. They often contain the very link I am about to google.

Clicking on ads as an alternative to donating money to the site si totally foolish and n00bish. I hope you know that there exists something called 'Smart pricing' that discounts your click value.

Clicking ads just for the heck of it is fraud. And no matter how variable your IP is, or how many proxies you use, google will catch you, trust me on this. As far as clicking ads go, i dont click any ad ever.. Long live AdblockPlus :D

Ya I know this, but I want to know that value of money depends on the amount of page impression or not?

Nope
It depends upon
1.Niche
2.Content
3.CTR's

For example health related niche will earn upto 1-4$/ per click
If one owns a proxy then he might get 0.15$/click

Smartpricing factor also comes into play here :)

No matter how many sophisticated technique u use , google will know it
Coz i said MANUAL EVALUATION

And moreover u are not purchasing or signing up or converting into leads...
this is a massive blow to advertisers
Yes one cannot expect 100% conversion rate but they do have a minimum cut off rate

Just one point is missing here, there are majority of people around the world, who don't host websites, are not experienced bloggers or webmasters. These are the people who come to internet to find, read something. And if they see some useful ad, they will click the Ad, not thinking about the terminologies behind clicking(like the if i click money will go blog owner or something).

I use AdBlock Plus. And just for the record, I tried registering for google's adsense when I had my blog - *nucleuskore.blogspot.com

They saw it and replied me saying that I'm not worth it for whatever reason.

I never click Ads. Neither do I block them, keeping open the possibility that if something is relevant I may click on it. I simply ignore whats not needed.

i guess they consider how much time it takes to reach the $100 limit. My friend reached the limit in 3 weeks. He got afraid that he might be banned and so completely canceled his account... so much for the $100 !

@adi007 ...... sorry 2 dissappoint u ..... i click on my frds blog & he`s getting money ....

& inreturn i get paid 2 ....... whot say ha ...... some ppl do FOOL adsense .........

No chance dear
No way to cheat Google
Why simply because no matter what ever technology u use,u will not PURCHASE an item from the landing page by giving them money...
The thing is i wanna ask whether ur friend did actually received the money or not...?
If yes then u might have clicked the ad which doesn't require purchasing ...like say a ad which displays a film ad or something like that....
ur friend will be banned sooner or later...
They do have a minimum cut off beyond which one will be banned ( Some say that they will first smart price u and then it the conversion rate is still pathetic then they will ban u)

i am not saying that all must purchase that item..
They do have cut off something like say 60%.. i mean out of 100 clicks atleast 60 should be converted into leads....

And i wanna say to Digit members that i had once read reports that there most of the invalid clicks are from India
*www.labnol.org/internet/blogging/g...-india-how-invalid-clicks-are-generated/2408/

^^Very very interesting read..

you get the money, all right....but that is for now!
You might never know that sometimes your friend's account mught be banned sooner or later!

Yup...
Even some Genuine adsense publishers will suffer if the conversion rate is too low... :(
But this is business.. if one publisher is not useful to the Google then they will simply abandon him/her ... :)

Really interesting, that article. But it is real funny to notice that the entire world is involved anyway!

However, India known for its great growth in technology has already become popular for things like these.

Primary use of ads are to just get people to know about products or more specifically widen their products' worldwide. In this case, we should know that, while google adsense pays you when people click on ads placed on your website, it is not for granted that they let you use them as you like. They continuously track the page impressions and can trace you without any difficulty.

But, the point is that when you yourself or your friend keep clicking the ads, the ip addresses are tracked. But you can remain on the safer side, as long as you don't cross the limit because Google is a bit greedy too. They earn a lot more than us from the ads. But if you overdo it, Google can even take steps against you legally, because it is not you or Google who is suffering, but the advertiser who has to suffer for the number of times you click their ads.

Though on simpler terms, this sounds easy, you could end up in really big trouble if the advertiser gets hold of your ip through google(because google is the one which is responsible).

So ,as a result, the whole adsense bussiness is best to be stopped.....!
