AdSenseLog - Desktop AdSense Account Application

In my last post, Michael Cheneys AdSense Videos (Update), you can see a graph of how my AdSense earnings have improved over the last couple of months.

I forgot to mention that I made this graph really easily using a piece of software called AdSenseLog - a really neat piece of software that is produced by MetalGrass Software.

AdSenseLog runs on you Windows desktop (not sure if there is a Linux or Apple version), and is able to log into your AdSense account and get pretty much all the data you can get when you are logged into AdSense in your browser.

You then have the ability to dive into your data and do all sorts of analysis on it and have it spat out into neat graphical images.

I used to have to do this by exporting data into CSV format and then loading it up in Excel, and then making a graph from that.

Anyhow, AdSense log is available for a free 30 day trial download. If you earn less than $50 a month with AdSense then it is free to use. The basic version costs $20 and can be used with accounts that earn up to $250 a month. The pro version is $50 and can be used for unlimited earnings.

Another cool thing is that you can leave it running in your system tray and set it to check your account intermitently. If your earnings increase, then it will notify you with a sound.

Back at the beginning of May, I bought Michael Cheyneys Adsense Videos and said that I would report back on the outcome of implementing his techniques. I actually said that I would report back after a month, but I’ve been tied up in a pretty intense consultancy project. Well that project is coming to an end and I have a bit of spare time, so here we go.

Rather than go into a long blog post about how my adsense income has almost doubled on a month-on-month basis, I decided to make a graph of my earnings:

Adsense Earnings

You should be able to see from the graph when I got the Adsense Videos

As you can see, there is a drop at the end where things have stabalised for this month. I think the reason for this is because I have not been marketing my websites due to consultancy restraints on my time. However, it’s now time to get back into it.

I will hopefuly report back with another earnings update soon.
