I have Adsense email me daily reports broken down by web site.

To do this I:

1. Set up URL channels for each of my web sites
2. Set up the report:
   • Go to Advanced Reports
   • Select Yesterday (don’t select Today - see below)
   • Click “Channel data” and select all channels.  Then group by channel.
   • Click display report.
3. Save the report and set it up to email you
   • Under “save as custom report” type “channel data for the day” or something similar and save.
   • Then click over to the Report Manager and set the frequency to daily and select the appropriate email address for the report to be delivered to.

Reports are sent just after midnight - so selecting the report for “today” only captures up to an hour of clicks at the time of generation.  But selecting “yesterday” captures the whole previous day.

You’ve gotta credit it to them.  Dreamhost actually tells you when they screwed up. 

In fact, they tell the whole world on their blog.  So even if you never noticed a server went tits-up, there it is for all to see.  Let’s face it, all hosts have glitches.  Dreamhost is one of the few who open up and admit their mistakes.

Honesty is a rare thing these days.  And I figure if they are so blatant about the glitches, outages and screw-ups then I’m never going to be in the dark wondering if they have kept something from me (or worse, many small outages) which I will never know for sure but will always be there eating up my margins.
