As the topic suggest, I’ve extracted some data from my AdSense panel to benchmark my earnings against the NASDAQ Composite Index.I’ve done research for the month end values of the Indexes.
From my analysis:
- My adsense earnings do not follow the indexes
- Amazingly, when NASDAQ was at it’s lowest for the month-end, my earnings didn’t do well too.
- I’m affected by the 2009 global economic recession too.
For my AdSense Index, The huge amounts in thousands are not the actual amount I made. It’s just what I made, multiplied by some huge numbers. And, I call it my Index.
Looks like my earnings improved and I should receive my adsense cheque soon. How about yours? Were you affected too?

Yeah, I think there is a relationship between the economy in general and Adsense revenues, but I think the relationship can be an inverse one too. For example, during the heart of the recession, if your site was related to finding a job or saving money, I would think you might actually have had increased Adsense revenues!
Very nice website.
I am impressed.
I like it very much.

I read a report that while business in the physical world has been slowing down in general with the recession, business online has been growing at a greater rate, due to the natural increase in internet users worldwide. So I’m surprised to see that your results correspond to the NASDAQ. I’d expect it to be outperforming the NASDAQ at the moment.
It’s very interesting to see though! Perhaps it shows an overall trend in people’s activity, both online and offline, which affects all business equally.
My own online business is to young to check any such correlation. But I’ll kee an eye on it in fufure!
