I am amazed at what just happened. I added a new page to my site, and the adsense on it just got a $6 click! I did not know this could happen.

I have these sites for sale, but did not know that they could do this!

The other day I got 2 clicks for $4 each on a domain I was about to sell for $10. :)

Grats by the way.

Thats $9.03 in revenue from adsense so far today. off of 74 unique hits.

Looks like you got lucky. $6 clicks are hard to come by these days. At least I never really got clicks in that price range.

I hope it wasnt luck :) I just found some great paying keyword info and tried it. That, with the traffic I have, made a great combo. Since the new info is relevent to my site content anyways.

Sorry man, I am so new to this. I built these sites a week ago for my business. I was lucky to get spelling right. I just lucked up from what I can tell, and placed everything where it needs to be. But I think meta.....

Congratulations, but let me give you a little heads up - that line above your header that reads "Find Freight,Load Board,Shippers,Post Loads.For Carriers and Freight Brokers" is of a color so difficult to read on that background that Google will undoubtedly eventually see it as hidden text, and possibly penalize your page.

If you put that there for search engine reasons, then I would use css to style the H1 tag with a lighter, more readable color, smaller font, center it, italicize it, and place it just above your white box (still on the blue background) - that way it looks more like a tag line, and less like a keyword stuff.

Oh, and also, write it like this:

Find Freight, Load Board, Shippers, Post Loads. For Carriers and Freight Brokers

by which I mean, make sure there are spaces around the words and phrases.

If you leave off the spaces, Google (and other search engines) will look at it as one word, instead of individual words. Therefore, you are less likely to come up for, for example, load board or shippers, but if someone types in "load board,shippers" exactly like that - well, you're good to go. But that's probably too long tail.

Just some free advice, worth what you paid for it.

If this revenue kept up this way, what would my sites be worth? any idea??

No, it's far too soon. You haven't even had a chance to be smart priced yet. It's exciting to see numbers like that, but don't get too excited until you see *trends*.

Thanks netmeg. Will use the advice

Also - new rule this month - any site displaying AdSense *must* include a privacy policy. You can find a good boilerplate one that's acceptable to AdSense below. I think it's because with this Doubleclick purchase, they're going to be using new technologies in the future and want to hedge their bets. You only need link it to one page, but if it's easier, just put it in your footer if that's common to all pages.

Wow that's awesome! I've never had a click go that high but I wish I did :P That's great to hear that it is possible.

So it wouldn't be worth anything right now? ( all 3 sites )

Not even a couple hundred bucks? :(

I have sold domains based solely on one week's worth of traffic for several hundred $$$. There are A LOT of buyers who will take a chance on small sample sizes in the hopes of striking it rich.

I would remove that screenshot before Google sees it.

Moved to the 'Adsense' forum.

Should be careful with CTR, it is too high. My experience told that Adsense will pay lot of attention to the channel with huge CTR. Good luck!

Thats the thing. I am doing everything according to their guidelines. No false clicks, just traffic to the load board/forum. I have people calling me all day about services we do. Just good keywords i guess. They (google) can watch all they want.

Are we not allowed adsense screenshots???
Sorry didn't know. How am I supposed to prove revenue w/o screenshot?
