In the google AdSense terminology, CPM is ‘Cost per 1000 impressions’ - i.e. for every 1000 page impressions I am receiving $2.04. I should look up what the heck is a page impression - it is different from page view, since not every page view is a page impression.

I am still quite ambivalent about adSense - lots of people don’t like it, and the content I am usually providing here is not really targeted of people who are clicking ads. However, to answer your question, yes, it pays the hosting fees - if I will continue to collect revenue with an equal tempo, it will even pay double of the hosting.

I hope this answers your question - I am also quite newb when it comes to adSense…

Some quick question - What is the relation between CPM and page views or page request? my question is what has been your total income a day or the whole period as a whole?

I am curious to know if you are blogging is slef financed i.e it pays the hosting fees :=)

I will have to disappoint you: I did not use any Ruby stuff at all ;-) When I asked the same question on the RubyOnRails mailing list a few months ago, I was told that I should use google analytics unless I want to seriously reinvent the wheel...</p> <p>After installing and getting convenient with google analytics, I immediately understood what were they talking about... It would take ages to develop even the fraction of the offered functionality. Note that I am not a google fanboy per se - and this can not be said about Ruby/Rails. However, in this case, I can not advise them - the right tool for the right job is called google analytics this time.</p> <p>For the first part I have also used also analog and WordPress statistics.</p> Well… I will have to disappoint you: I did not use any Ruby stuff at all ;-) When I asked the same question on the RubyOnRails mailing list a few months ago, I was told that I should use google analytics unless I want to seriously reinvent the wheel…

For the first part I have also used also analog and WordPress statistics.
