Interesting. I wrote http://snipt.net http://snipt.net not long ago, but have had no such luck with AdSense (only made about $30/mo on 30k monthly uniques). Would you mind sharing your traffic that got you up to $1k/month?
- petercooper 15y agoI think it was around 250k pageviews per month. I don't recall the uniques as I don't pay attention to them (unless the visit-pageview ratio is really weird). It looks like they have it up to around 600-700k per month now: http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=sm2snippets http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=sm2snippets The butt fell out of Adsense for many areas in 2008-2009ish though and I've never had any further success with it in the developer space (though I did very well in the mass market up till about 2009). I run some other reasonably successful sites in the developer space and Adsense is basically a no-go - results as bad as you've mentioned. If I were in your shoes, I'd dabble with some affiliate programs. I've already been doing this and having success on my developer focused sites. Only high quality stuff but latest books, e-books, courses, events, etc. I notice you have Carbon on there and if I recall correctly, they approached me and the CPM was laughably bad (though this may have changed..), I want/need to be making $5-10 CPM overall from display advertising.
