After long research and reading journeys and tips i decided to start my own journey and share info with you. I learned a lot from BHW, this is great place !!
My English is mid-lvl so i hope you understand.

My Journey is Pinterest + AdSense. Food Recipes Niche
What i have so far :
Domain .com, installed WordPress + Free Theme.
1 Pinterest account with 900 followers and rising ( I use iMacro scrips to follow other people followers, target followers.)
I'm in a lot of boards of all types, but i pin only to few of them that are not spammy and i get a lot of repins/likes/visits.
All my content is copy/paste from ebooks. Google approved my account with copy/paste content, so i guess that is working.
Also i have access to profile with more then 100k followers all together, around 9k followers on the profile (I don't know how this really work). I use this profile to create new boards with instant 9k followers

I will update my earning and stats weekly. I will try to answer to all your questions. Also i plan to grow my twitter profile in the future. Any help is welcomed.

My Stats for last week 31.3.14 - 6.4.14
Visits : 2,528
Clicks : 27
CPC : ?0.09 ( This is really low, i don't know why )
Earning : ?2.48
 
Welcome to the pinterest world :) Will be following along :) Good luck
 
I think i have read a Similar Pinterest + Adsense + food recipie niche thread already
and maybe that guy had same earning goal

BTW Pinterest has great potential for all these women niche best of luck
 
Seems interesting just keep updating. Good luck.
 
Hey buddy , Goodluck for the journey. One question though. How much time does it take to approve your adsense account and how many articles have you posted...?
 
Damn, 0.09 CPC, that's verry low :( If i could get that clicks, i would make over 20euros / day

Anyway, good luck mate :D

Maybe because my site is new, i get no visits from Google. I will try to improve my cpc. Today i changed all ads to text only.

When did you applied for adsense.... Just after posting the articles or after bringing some traffic to your domain...?

After bringing some traffic. 100-200 daily unique visits from USA.
 
No Offense but 5 dollars a day? How many hours of work does that include? It's a really low amount.
 
thats not so bad with all these other little money, in the third world

Everything is set up. I post 3 post per day and pin them in tables. It takes around 1 hour daily for all that.
I just want to hit 5$ daily, then i will make it 10$ or even more.
We all want to make 100$ daily, but we need to start low and improve and increase over time.

Yeah, that's true mate.
I just thought 5 dollars was a bit low as a goal but I understand it's a short-term one.

Good luck ;)

I have a tip :)

I've seen other journeys about adsense with pinterest (well, it is traffic so it does not matter its source) and you could try to change your ads positioning and/or its type (text/images). With that amount of traffic you should be earning more than 1 euro in my opinion.
 
Many visits, but low earnings. Maybe try CPA or affiliate? Your CPC pretty sucks by now...

Good luck, keep us updated!
 
No one asked the following: how many ads do you have? Sometimes removing one/two ads you get better earnings.
