On one of my blogs the other day, I had 19,000 impressions for Commission Junction. Not one click.

I also had about 12,000 impressions for adsense and made about $1.00. I’m getting sick of all this. I don’t know how to get people to click.

The majority of people came to the website because they searched for Marta Kaczynski, the Polish president’s daughter. When I moved my recent comments equal with the blog posts, more people clicked on other posts.

I also noticed, that my exit activity showed more Google ad clicks than adsense reported. Not liking that either.

Sorry to vent my frustration, but just needed to do so.

I’ve made a real effort to be as transparent as possible with what does and doesn’t work for me. And if you ever have a question about anything, all you have to do is ask.

Kathy, welcome to the blog and thanks for the comment. You’re right that there is a large trickle effect with the state of the job market and the economy.

I’ll have to check my records but the private advertising deals started relatively early on. In all cases with the private ad deals, I have been contacted by the advertiser.

hey Derek, Inspiring numbers! Almost an order of magnitude better than some other bloggers I've been following. I appreciate that you list each program so one can get a sense of what works and what doesn't. ~ Steve, aka the blogging-newbie trade show guru Steves last blog post..Trade Show Secrets

I am a SAHM first and a CPA second. I have a couple of contractor clients who aren’t working which means I am not working.

I haven't much luck with adsense. I've left it on another website of mine...I think it pulls in maybe 100 every few months. Ah well...Good Job Justins last blog post..Florida Insurance

Congrats on the figures, even in a slumped economy. At what point in the growth of your site did you start getting involved in private advertising? Were you contacted by an advertiser? Rebeccas last blog post..Car Donation In New York

You are correct about adsense earning. Although it seem like lower earning but there a still a lot if people still didn't make it till $100. I'm also still struggle to make 100 bucks permonth. aqiqs last blog post..Travel sickness
