Having said that, I hardly make anything through AdSense because my site isn't established enough yet. I plan to stick with AdSense though and hopefully through time traffic and revenue will grow. |
What kind of site(s) do you have? |
It's basically just a general entertainment site.
I write articles and columns about some pretty random stuff that I hope at least some people find amusing. I've made videos with friends that we've posted and there's some games, etc.
It's not the most profitable type of site, I'm sure, but at some point it could generate at least a little income.

I don't think it's the most profitable niche, either. But that being said, I do have an entertainment site, i.e., movie site. I actually do believe that I can start making some money given time and effort like you.

I think it depends on your audience.
I've since switched to chitika minimalls on one of my websites that features programming code, because I figure no programmers click on adsense ads

IT/web/seo/webmaster/web design site may need to use some imagination to display ads differently. As you suggest, targeted audience tend not to click on AdSense ads so often.

I also find that many of them have browser extensions which actually block the ads from displaying
not too mention that any clicks generate very little $

It really depends on what topic each page has. For example, if you're running an entertainment site, you wouldn't be able to make much money.

Did you mean Foogle or Froogle? How can you make your website make money via either of those?

Adsense has been the best in my experience for forums but you do need a lot of traffic.

From what I experience, you need to have a lot of traffic coming from search engines. Having regular visitors is nice, but they generally start blocking out ads eventually. So, they won't be clicking contextual ads or banner ads. ... that's what I think, but ... does everyone agree?

I think so too. Also, doesn't it take a little time for ads to catch up to the topic? Old topics tend to show more relevant ads than fresh topics, and people tend to go more to the fresh topics. Or am I just imagining this?

No, it's not your imagination. I certainly cannot see how exactly algo works, but it's pretty fair to guess that AdSense tends to show many irrelevant ads on new pages; they tend to show pretty relevant ads on old pages.

Doesn't the Adsense spider first have to visit the page for relevant ads to start showing?

No. AdSense autumnally displays ads even if AdSense bot has not visited the page. However, it appears that the bot visits the page later on to display more relevant ads.

You also end up with more public service ads until the bots stopped by.
