Ad free Blog

I thought I would change my profession if Google Adsense could actually give me something by putting their ads in my blogs.  But I got nothing so far.  And there's no sign of anything coming at any time either.  So I'm removing all ads and sticking to the only job I know, teaching.

I feel liberated now.   Liberated from the world that I may never understand.

If any ad still appears in my blog, only Google is gaining. I can't help it, I suppose.

  1. Please shift to custom domain first. Then seek some expert advice from professional SEO to earn money. Read about Imran Uddin, the Andhra boy hardly in 20s but earning lakhs of rupees. You must have written clearly what and how went wrong. Don't let down please !

    1. It doesn't matter really, friend. I tried out Adsense for 9 months only to earn 9 dollars :) I should stick to the job I know.

  2. From what I've heard you need ten thousand of page views a day at least to get anything out of AdSense. And out of that big number only if people click on the Ads that are on the webpage (either out of interest or sheer accident) that you get any money. For those of us who write personal blogs or good prose and not 'tech help' or fashion blogs the number of clicks is considerably much lesser.
    I cant say AdSense isn't working. I checked the daily earning for my blog that does't yet have a roaring audience, AdSense shows that I make $0.01 for 100 pageviews. Like Srinivasa has said in the comment above, if you intend on making money out of blogging your blog needs to be Search Engine Optimized (SEO) and that requires some real work which even extends to html coding. Can't be so dismissive of a Google service now can we?

    1. True, Divya, it works only for those who get very high traffic. And then there are the technicalities which I don't feel like bothering about. It was an experiment, after all.

    2. I was experimenting with it too to see how it worked. I think now we know writers wont make much. But then again....writing is a hobby and hobbies make us happy, that why we do it right?

  3. It's only for tech, fashion and food bloggers. Writers never earn from it. It's sad but true.

    1. Oh, yeah, you could be right. Actually our blog posts should advertise certain things which are popular... I understand.

  4. Dear Matheikal sir, sad to hear this, but I must say that the real reasons why a blog doesn't earn much from Google Adsense is not that Google is cheating, I must say that it is because of our own fault only.

    There can be numerous reasons why we don't earn from GA and it can be:

    1. Unprofessional Approach
    2. Wrong Choice of Content
    3. Search Engine Optimization
    4. Not much traffic from US, Canada, UK and Australia

    So a combination of all these points can cause us to get less from Google Adsense and we cannot blame them for it. I am preparing a blog post on it, and will describe all these things clearly over there...

    1. No, no, Alok. I didn't mean Google is cheating. I meant my blog doesn't seem to the right one for the purpose. I can't write on popular stuff, as Saru, above says rightly. Anyway, let writing remain a hobby for me: that's best I think.

The Adventures of Toto as a comic strip

  'The Adventures of Toto' is an amusing story by Ruskin Bond. It is prescribed as a lesson in CBSE's English course for class 9. Maggie asked her students to do a project on some of the lessons and Femi George's work is what I would like to present here. Femi converted the story into a beautiful comic strip. Her work will speak for itself and let me present it below.  Femi George Student of Carmel Public School, Vazhakulam, Kerala Similar post: The Little Girl

Two Nuns and two questions

The nuns kept in custody  Two Catholic nuns were arrested on 25 July 2025 at Durg railway station for allegedly trafficking tribal women from Narayanpur in Chhattisgarh to Agra in UP. Today’s newspapers in Kerala have expressed their contempt of the act more vehemently than I had expected. It seems secularism has hope yet in this country. For those who are not aware of the incident, two nuns were arrested because some criminals of a depraved organisation called Bajrang Dal in Chhattisgarh chose to conclude that the nuns were committing the crime of human-trafficking. Since that charge wouldn’t stick, because the women confessed that they were going voluntarily to take up jobs with the help of the nuns in order to raise their families from miserable poverty in a country that claims to be a $5-tillion-economy, another charge was fabricated that the nuns had indulged in religious conversion. Now let us look at certain facts. Though I keep questioning the Christian churches for...

Missing Women of Dharmasthala

The entrance to the temple Dharmasthala:  The Shadows Behind the Sanctum Ananya Bhatt, a young medical student from Manipal, visited the Dharmasthala Temple and she never returned to her hostel. She vanished without a trace. That was in 2003. Her mother, Sujata Bhatt, a stenographer working with the CBI, rushed to the temple town in search of her daughter. Some residents told her that they had seen Ananya walking with the temple officials. The local police refused to help in any way. Soon Sujata was abducted by three men, assaulted, and rendered unconscious. She woke up months later in a hospital in Bangalore (Bengaluru). Now more than two decades later, she is back in the temple premises to find her daughter’s remains and perform her last rites. Because a former sanitation worker of the temple came to the local court a few days back with a human skeleton and the confession that he had buried countless schoolgirls in uniform and other young women in the temple premises. This ma...

The Chhattisgarh Story

Deforestation in Chhattisgarh Kerala’s Catholic Church is teeming with rage these days because of the arrest of two nuns in Chhattisgarh on false charges. No one seems to understand the real politics behind the Modi government’s enmity towards Christian missionaries in Chhattisgarh as well as other backward states in its neighbourhood. Modi is selling the tribal areas and forestlands to the corporate sector part by part, his friend Adani being the chief benefactor. The Christian missionaries are a severe hindrance in that commerce. Let us get some facts right, at least. The Adivasi villagers allege that Gram Sabhas (local governing bodies) were forged or manipulated under pressure from Adani and the BJP government officials in order to take away their lands. In Hasdeo Aranya, minutes of the local body meetings were altered to show the villagers’ consent for land transfers. Also, the Chhattisgarh Scheduled Tribes Commission found that Panchayat secretaries were detained and coerc...

The Little Girl

The Little Girl is a short story by Katherine Mansfield given in the class 9 English course of NCERT. Maggie gave an assignment to her students based on the story and one of her students, Athena Baby Sabu, presented a brilliant job. She converted the story into a delightful comic strip. Mansfield tells the story of Kezia who is the eponymous little girl. Kezia is scared of her father who wields a lot of control on the entire family. She is punished severely for an unwitting mistake which makes her even more scared of her father. Her grandmother is fond of her and is her emotional succour. The grandmother is away from home one day with Kezia's mother who is hospitalised. Kezia gets her usual nightmare and is terrified. There is no one at home to console her except her father from whom she does not expect any consolation. But the father rises to the occasion and lets the little girl sleep beside him that night. She rests her head on her father's chest and can feel his heart...
