I'd like to hear about others experiences. How long did it take to start making money with ads on your site?
Did you put ads up and immediately rake in 50 bucks a month, then up to 200 bucks a month by the end of the 6th month?
Just looking to get a rough idea of everyone else's experiences.

I have had adsense running since August. I am just now to $40, though I took three months off in there.
In February I made about 15 dollars. It seems to be getting better, but it's still a tough road.

I've been using Adsense since 2005. I used to make in the hundreds every month, now I'm lucky to get $50 from it.

There are two reasons for that:

1) Adsense revenue for a lot of sites (webmaster related sites especially) did drop.
2) Once that happened I scaled back my Adsense ads for others.

If you are constantly promoting and updating your site though your Adsense revenue will increase. But I suggest a mix of Adsense and other ads.

I have been having a good success with Adsence I started about 5-6 years ago got $100 after two month and its been going up ever since.

Appreciate the feedback guys.

Good for you to be earning hundreds in a month before. $50 per month is still not bad. I am still working my way up to the hundreds and hope to do that soon.

I started earning money quickly after starting with Google AdSense in 2007 - but the effect of the ads were quite magnificently higher after chaning positions of the ads.
Went from $0.3 a day - to $2 - $5 each day - so should also take that into consideration. The ad placement is important, and how the ad is styled into the document/page.

SEO optimize the page, and you'll also get more relevant ads as well - which in turn also helps a great deal!

I started AdSense Journey in November 2008 but i do not focus on them how much my earning? Only $0.40, so i quit. Until November 2009 i start gain for the second time. November $5 -> December $15 -> January $40 -> February end of the month $101 -> March Today $207 = PIN not arrived yet until today. I hate this Issue. I wait for three month, huffh....Any Idea?

I also didn't reach $50 a month as yet. I hope I will reach there soon.

It's been a while now but it took me about 6 months to really start earning with AdSense (though it depends on what you think 'real' AdSense earnings are).

But it depends on a lot of different factors how quickly you start earning. Niche, strategy, quality of site etc...

@dannyexacta
I don`t know how many request u send but let me explain a faster way for u to get ur account active

You must request pin 3 times after that at the place where request button was u'll see something said if the pin dosen`t arrive blla blla blla...

3 Easy Steps

1. Scan ur Id Card in both sides and save it as jpeg(Image)
2. Scan any invocie with ur address( Power bill, Phone bill, ..etc) which have ur name ur full home address and which comes max 2 months beafore
3 Send them to google u`ll find a mail at ur inbox or at the google adsense page.


Max after 72 hours ur ads will be activated
