Adsense Performance

My Adsense ads have been posted for less than two months now and it's the click rate and CPM rate is performing more than I expected considering that my site only gets about 400 page views a day. The only thing I regret is not having signed up with Adsense a long time ago.

Adsense Monitor

Anything Goes

I have found a way to monitor adsense, track and count clicks, then you can use the popular adsense monitoring script that notifies you by email, pager or phone with adsense updates.
