I have two websites right now that I have adsense on. I am creating several more, but I don't understand how to decifer where the clicks are coming from. Someone told me to st up "Channels" in Adsense, but how does that work? I mean, basically, what I am doing is setting up niche websites with wordpress that all look the same cosmetically except for some pictures and content, but in my adsense account I have the same ad code I am using. They go in the same location on each website. The colors are already the same, so how can I tell what website the clicks are coming from?

Do I have to set up a new seperate ad unit/link for each website or does the "Channels" do that for me? Basically I want to use the same ad design for each website, the colors and setting are the same, but I also want to be able to tell where the clicks are coming from so I can focus and expand on the winners. Google, of ourse, doesn't explain this very well. Please help a newbie out!

Thank you,

Adam

    Adam,

    You need to set up Adsense for each website.
    As you go thru the process of setting up your adsense block it gives you the option of setting a channel. Simply pick a name for this channel. You can have many channels and this lets you find out which block of adsense is getting the most clicks on a page.

    For example you can have channels called

    mysite.com336x280
    mysite.com468x60

    Go and set up an adsense block now and watch carefully for where it asks you to assign a channel to the code.
