Indexing suckage

Amazing traffic! omg. My massive 50 cent/day average is now at 31 cent/day for August.

152 search results for site:z425.com from the normal datacenter. wtf. I'm not doing much better at the other datacenters either. wtf2.

Last week it was 360, which is also terrible considering it should be at the least 1500.

From the forums the kids like to say this is normal. (That and smack talking G.) Apparently the trend is for results to show up at first for about a week, then disapear and reappear randomly until stabilizing at some random point in the future.

Nice.

I've been doing terrible on the dollar front lately (9 whole cents today!), but things do seem to be in order. My results are clean. Out of the 150 I am getting at least 15 uniques from G a day. Most of which are to my engineered posts. It's amazing that I make any money a day with 15 uniques.

The rest of my uniques usually don't convert and come from rss (which never should convert) or forum posts or whatever and averages around 15 more.

Even so.. I am still thinking it is worth the effort. I'm just such a big fan of the fact that its potential for scaling is just huge. Now if only start leveraging my programming skill, put on my slightly gray hat, and start generating pages like a mofo. haha.
