You mentioned neglecting some sites for a while and then getting back around to tending to them. I’ve found that actually to be a good strategy…basically creating a site and doing an initial push, letting it mature for a bit, then getting back into it. That way you don’t burn out on it early on.

Good luck on the real estate site too!

I haven’t connected my adsense and analytics which might help.

Adsense has a thing called smart pricing which can make your earnings go down, if you are having a lot of non-converting traffic. It seems like it can go the other way also.

I think the positive swing is also just me doing some work for a change. I neglected many sites that I have for too long and I am slowly getting around to updating them.

It would be great to hear some stats or metrics of your efforts. I am really curious to learn exactly how effective your tactics are?

Any chance in offering some more details?

I added infobarrel.com and hubpages.com as channels but i am not sure if that works? I have added individual hubpages as URL channels and that seems to work.

It’s kind of hard to say exactly why my adssense has been going up. I don’t really have a good explanation for it, but whatever I am doing (work!), it seems to be working.

One thing I am wondering about though is what sort of instant results have you been seeing. I think you said you’ve seen a jump in Adsense earnings… how did you know this was due to article writing? Is it because you are seeing increased traffic to pages on your own sites that the articles point to or because of InfoBarrel revenue? How can I track IB revenue in my own Adsense account?
