I was getting $0.08 per 1000 impressions, but I appear to be getting nearly $1 per click-through, assuming I visit multiple pages. Now I see why Google specifies clicking your own ads will get you banned, as well as incenting people to click. So I started clicking on ads, for the heck of it.

I'm actually being serious about researching how digital advertising works. One thing I've learned thus far is that the only people making money from Google AdSense is Google! My current payment rate is $0.08 per 1000 views, not sure what the click payment rate is yet. But unless it's dramatically higher, it seems that all ads do is clutter the layout and make the readers angry... This blog gets several thousand views per month, depending on who writes what and how often. I'd need to increase my readership 10x or so to make $1/month in revenue.
