Adsense Earnings at the Beginning & Today

I signed up with Google Adsense on May 8th, 2006 (my birthday!) and was sent my first cheque on June 23th, 2006. I made enough the very first month because I already had a busy website www.borntolove.com, that I had added Adsense to, along with my new blogs. If not for my website, it would have taken a lot longer to recieve my first paycheque! I think I forgot to make channels for every ad I placed, so it doesn't match the total.

May 1, 2006 - May 30, 2006 - Total - $182.02
Born to Love - $152.72 (584,546 page views)
Life Begins... - $0.39 (1,525 page views)
Frugal Baby Tips - $1.78 (583 page views)
Stories of Pregnancy & Birth over 44y - $15.49
(3,498 page views)

Here we are, 20 months later, and my earnings have increased nicely! Borntolove.com still carries the bulk of my earnings, but the blogs are coming along nicely, and I have added a few new ones. Right now, some of the blogs aren't earning money - I'll have to work on that! Hmm... still doesn't add up to the total - I'll have to see what ads aren't connected to channels.

January 1, 2008 - January 31, 2008 - Total - $365.84
Born to Love - $199.51 (691,947 page views)
Life Begins... - $2.10 (1,948 page views)
Frugal Baby Tips - $3.82 (1,751 page views)
Stories of Pregnancy & Birth over 44y - $25.00 (19,157 page views)
Pregnancy Stories by Age - $28.62 (21,292 page views)
You Can Get Pregnant - $51.64 (6,742 page views)
Top Gambling Secrets - $1.18 (196 page views)

My goal this year is to get my daily average up to $20.00 (or more!) a day. For the past week or so, it's about $12.00/day.

Interestingly enough, while my earnings have increased in the past month, "some publishers have said their earnings are flat or up from the previous month but most are reporting a drop in earnings."
