Revealed: FelixKer.com AdSense Earnings vs NASDAQ Composite Index vs Straits Times Index

Felix Ker — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 10:00:44 +0000

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?

Advertlets: Earnings not processed for > 2 months!

Felix Ker — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 04:00:22 +0000

I’m sick of emailing Advertlets (or adding a support ticket) and waiting more than a week for a reply. This is not the way to run business, Josh.

Where is my cheque?

2 months ago or to be exact, onÂ 11th SeptemberÂ 2007 (Remember the September 11 bombing?), I checked out an amount of money. Hey, that was my first checkout with Advertlets and I haven’t got it yet. It’s been more than 70 days. Seriously, I don’t think Advertlets hasÂ that many clients that checkout monthly that my cheque cannot be processed in time. Compare with Google’s Adsense? Does that explain why Adsense is doing soÂ well?

Server downtime/Lag!

I noticed that almost everyday Advertlets’ server is lagging and causing my page to load slowly. Worse of all, when the server is down, my ads don’t get loaded and my page remains dead. Fine. I’ll just accept this quietly.

I saw a bug!

Is that a bug? Why did today appear twice? (Figured censored as respect to Advertlets)

Dear Advertlets

Please do something about this. I’m sure there are others who will give you the support to improve!

Have you encountered any problems with Advertlets that you’ll like to share with me? Bug for you too? Yet to receive your cash-out?

P.S I’m still using and supporting Advertlets!

Nuffnang: New look, better system?

Felix Ker — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 03:05:30 +0000

While surfing online, I discovered that Nuffnang now has a new design and according to some bloggers, Nuffnang is working hard to produce results for bloggers.

I tried Nuffnang 3 months ago and I was totally disappointed with the results. Sad to say, I was offered RM$0.50 for 7 days of Allyhunt Global Skyscraper placement on my blog. I remember I had around 200 visitors and it was totally peanuts; not even enough for my web hosting, not to mention any VPS.

I will give Nuffnang another try. Yes, this time for 1 month. Next month if it doesn’t produce results, it’ll be down until I foresee changes. =)
