Yes, it's February already, and as this seems to be something that allows people to judge if this blog a success, and is entirely objective, here are the figures for January...
- 2210 visits, up from 1462 last month (a 53.9% improvement on last month) but down from 2262 in January 2009 (a 2.3% fall)
- £0.73 of advertising revenue, up from £0.40 last month (a 82.5% improvement!) but down from £1.58 in January 2009 (a 53.8% improvement).
I'm now expecting to qualify for my first cheque from Google Adsense in February 2012...

Maybe you should put up a tipjar instead of having adverts? See: http://tipit.to/
If I had a blog and the adverts were getting me chickenfeed I would take them down, because Google ads look a bit ugly IMHO.
After all, in January you only earned 0.07 pence (not pounds!) per visit...
Clarification: when I mentioned January in my comment I meant January 2009 (the month with the highest advert income of the ones you mentioned).
Niklas,
I see your point, although having set up Google Adsense, it requires no work on my part. Indeed, the advertising revenue from my other blog has so far covered 15% of this year's precept increase for the Parish Council.
Besides, it may be a very small amount, but one day, if this blog makes it into the top 100 political blogs (one should be ambitious), I might actually make some money...
Which is your other blog? I had no idea you had two.

Does that mean that the precept increase was tiny or that your other blog is very successful? ;)
