Google Ads - are they worth it?

After having the Google Adsense scheme on this site for a couple of months now, I really have to ask myself - is it worth it. After looking at the stats of the site, I have displayed over 10,000 ads to people visiting, and earned about $25USD from 83 clicks.

That works out to be a less than 1% success rate for advertisers.

This also means that I don’t get enough out of it to even cover my expenses in putting up this web site!

I’ve decided to try something different. You will now notice a PayPal donate icon on the sidebar. If you find something useful on my site, feel free to send something through - anything. This will help me offset costs to keep this (and other) sites running.
