Ever since I changed my blog’s theme and placed the adsense code in the suggested location for better click-thru rate, my revenue jumped 210% and completely beat the total value for the last 3 months. Unbelievable.

Anyway, due to Google’s TOS (Terms of Service), I can’t tell you how much I made but even if I am allowed to, I won’t because it’s not that much - keep in mind that I only told you the percentage. I should be getting my cheque *soon* (like in a year haha) $-)

It pays to listen to the many experts online and following their advice. Need to read more and post more quality content ( more quality? as if I am giving “quality” contents 8-| ). One thing which surprised me is the performance of the “horizontal ad” on top of the page, that area received the highest clicks. I expected the ad in the middle of the post which will give me the clicks.

So today I am on leave for some personal reason. Nothing new to post cuz my pc at home so slow, open 3 tabs under Firefox and it takes a few extra nanosecond to jump between tabs. I am used to my speedy 2.8GHz office PC, too fast - even before I press the key, the tabs are switched already :P

Probably I’ll take this time do most of my to-do list for this blog, like subscribing to feedburner, install a few more plugins, etc etc.
