To be totally honest, I was selling out.Google has this little ploy where they will put ads on your page and every time someone clicks on the ad, you - the host - receives money. Well, the idea that Google would send a check to Naperville, Illinois addressed to Austin Morgan was enough ammunition for me to pull the sell-out trigger.
The catch is that they only pay you once you receive $100 in clicks. This seemed like a very feasible number after a first days earnings of .63 cents. Yes, cents. However, the second day my grand total was up to a staggering .64 cents, yet I had just as many clicks on the second day as I did on the first. Hmm.....
I thought maybe a glitch had occurred (ha! Google having technical trouble) but after a week my total had not moved from .64 cents. Wait! Wouldn't it be even funnier if Google had to send a check to Naperville, Illinois addressed to Austin Morgan for .64 cents? Pull the plug!
I tried.
There is this little stipulation they like to throw in under your nose when you click all of the yes buttons in the "do you agree to the terms of service" charade. It states that the user must receive at least $10 in clicks before canceling or else Google is not responsible for paying. Since it would take me approximately thirty-two years to get to $10 dollars and by that time Google will probably have their own currency, I decided I was not meant for the pay per click game.
Defeat.
