Analyze your AdSense earnings with CSV AdStats

If you have Google AdSense on your web site in the hopes of making a few bucks, odds are you spend way too much of your day obsessively reading your AdSense reports. But for a company that has a robust web analytics tool, Google's AdSense reports are a bit thin. You can find out how many people are clicking on ads and how much money you're making, but there's no graphs and no good way to view data that's more than a few months old.

Fortunately, there's a third party solution that gives you a much fuller picture of your AdSense Stats. CSV AdStats can download AdSense CSV files manually or automatically and loads them into a powerful analysis tool. Now you can get a solid picture of your earnings over time. CSV AdStats lets you separate out data from custom channels, or compare one channel with another. And best of all, unlike Google's web tools, CSV AdStats lets you view day by day data from the time you opened your AdSense account.

The program does have a few rough edges. It appears to have been designed in French, and even if you select English as your default language, some menu items will appear in French anyway. But CSV AdStats is still incredibly useful for a free download, so we'll let that slide.
