If not money for ANOTHER Lamborghini! LOL doubt it's that much but still...


I wonder if the video editors on The Titanic ever went, "Sorry, I can't right now. I'm busy synching the Titanic..."

I just gave out a bunch of clicks for this morning.. share the love gang.. and put your link in your sig, otherwise it's difficult to track you down and give you clicks..!

Thanks Nick / Chris!

I'm still trying to figure out the whole AdSense strategy, but it appears each day your eCPM value resets.. and if you start out with a high click to view ratio for the day (say 1 click and 10 views), it seems like you earn more for each view/click after that.. as opposed to getting 200 views and then getting your first click..

How's everyone else doing on the revenue.. It's going to take a while to hit that magic $100, but I'm hoping in the next 5-6 weeks to be there.

So far "pro" has paid for itself twice over this month.

eCPM is a theoretical value calculated based on revenue/click/impressi​on...

It's a marketing tool to show theoretically what you are making per 1000 impressions.

I've only got about $3 so far this month...but I have to add more pics more often I think for it to really pay off. Bulk uploading a ton of pics and then sitting around doesn't keep your pics in the recent uploads lists...I think that's my problem.

Yeah, consistency is important.. and I don't upload more than 5-7 images at a time, too.. since from what I've seen, only thumbnails for 5 or so new ones are displayed in your "friends" feed, regardless of how many are uploaded.

This is pretty interesting. I am going to give it a try and let you know how it goes. It looks promising.
Thanks for the post.

Just keep in mind you should get AdSense approved before signing up for 'pro', if you were considering it. AdSense approval for me took about a week, but some are reporting a month or more.. it's a crap shoot.

IMO, as a stand-alone image store / host, Razzi isn't anything special, it's the AdSense tie-in that's the sweet part.. You just don't earn anything until you've got the AdSense peice worked out.

+1...

I have started giving all the people on my friends list 2 clicks/day... that should keep me out of the "invalid clicks" range for each person. GL! :)

Thanks, clicks for you all as well!

I just noticed that you can't access the "original file size" unless you sign up for pro, kind of lame...
