Sell your own ads for more revenue
I survived the fireworks/gun battle. I'm still not sure what it was.
And, nobody has approached the site asking to place ads. I should probably make a page inviting people to do so.
I have no fucking clue what to charge.
Do you watch the local news?
I would think something like that would be mentioned
What does goog charge for ads?
No. No, I didn't watch the local news. I never watch the news. I did read the local news headlines and it wasn't mentioned. They went on for a good ten minutes.
Google pays me 69% of what they charge for ads. People bid on the ads and they can cost anywhere from $0.01 (some ad places even do fractions of a penny) and $20 for a click. It depends on what segment you're in. Google really seems to like the site 'cause it's doing well. It's not paying for itself yet, but it soon will.
I don't watch the news either.
$20 a click seems like a lot to me
When a click is worth tens of thousands of dollars, it doesn't seem too high.
Things like mesothelioma lawyers pay a lot per click. It's all done behind the scenes (with many ad agencies) in a really quick auction. No, you're not bidding in real time - but you might have an ad exec at your company changing bid rates fairly often as they try to maximize profit with regards to spending.
