Back to 50 cent daily average

Oh.. The big bucks are rolling in now!

Google has indexed about 1/4 of my pages now. The pages are not fully pegged to the normal google servers either. Looking at a test server I still get different results.

I think the reason I am missing so many pages is because I have too many links on some of the category pages. I think googlebot gets bored after about 100 per page.

Anyway. I think that if I put Janel's china site back up with a few modifications, I would be at the mystical $1 a day average mark. I'm not going to bother, but it's a good milestone.

My estimate for my blog cleaned up and fully indexed is a whopping $2 a day. What's amazing is how terrible my traffic is and it still could generate that.

Now that I don't post full feed entries I have a semi-clue to how many readers I have coming from the feed. I'm guessing I have around 20 regulars that read my stuff at least once a week. I have no intention of monetizing from you guys, it's the search kids that I am after. Hopefully you're not even seeing ads anymore.

One of the nice things about having the site properly indexed and all the old pages gone from the index is that I can clearly see what people are searching for now. Since my blog is so random, I get a range of searches. Some common ones are..

pdhaddcounter

doom3 physics

qrio movies

counter strike spoofs

And somehow... A very low number of searches a day are worth 50 cents a day. It's kinda ridiculous that you can make more than minimum wage if you can get 1000 searches of random crap to your site each day.
