Cashing out Google Adsense using Western Union Quick Cash

Hurray! I finally get to cash out my earnings from Google Adsense.  It took me 4 years to accumulate the first USD 100.00.  Anyone reading this who thinks that's it's impossible to earn money from internet is wrong.  You can receive money from Google; it's just a matter of timing and hard work. 

Anyway, this is a screenshot of my first internet cheque:

I deided to receive my earnings by Western Union Quick cash.  it's  so easy. 

When I login to my Google account and saw that  a payment has been made, I was so excited (excuse me, this is my first USD 100).  I printed out the statement, and then waited for 4 whole days (holidays and weekends in between) before I could go to the nearest Western Union agent.

I first when to Public Bank, but Public Bank can only disburse funds on individual-to-individual transactions.  So I went to CIMB bank where they can disburse funds on corporate (as in Goolge inc)-to-individual (as in me) transactions,  Within 10 minutes I got my money. 

However the exchange rate is not in my favour, only got MYR 3.16 to 1 USD.  Well, will wait for my next USD100 (which should be faster now that I know how to make money from adsense).

You know what, I intend to buy USD currency as an investment, and wait for it to go to 3.5 and make a FOREX gain.

Thank you friends!

This is the first time I have participated in any referral program over the internet. Since the very first day I started in this new online business, I vowed to myself that I am not going to be a product-pusher. I will only recommend a product to my list if I have tried it and genuinely believe that another person will benefit from the product.

100percentMalaysian has just sent me an email to notify me that at least 5 of my friends have registered for the free materials from the site. To these first 5, I thank you for making my 'first affiliate program' a success. To the newbies, do listen to the audios. Seriously. I am now quite excited about this new business!

This is the email I received. Feels like a kindergarten kid receiving his first book prize.

Asia Adsense Immersion Bootcamp

Dr Mike Woo Adsense

On Saturday, I attended a preview of the Asia Adsense Immersion bootcamp to be held in Singapore on Dec 7-9, 2006.

The bootcamp will be conducted for the "first and last" time, by Dr Mike Woo-Ming, a medical practitioner turned internet entreprenuer.

I learnt some thngs at this preview. Thanks to the local facilitator. If you are keen to attend, click here for more details.

Here are important points to consider when placing on Google Adsense on your sites/blogs:

Location of ads. Read Google's optimisation tips on where to place the ads in order to encourage more click-through.

A great advertisement is of no good if there are nobody interested in them. As a responsible site owner, the articles on your site must be interesting, unique, and of value to the visitors.

Dead or Alive?

Is Adsense Dead or Alive?


Sometime back, there was a blast of emails in my inbox urging subscribers to download the ebook that says adsense is dead. Now there is another round of emails in my inbox from another guru that urges me to download an ebook that rebutts the first statement. This second person says Adsense is Alive!

To a newbie like me, this is utterly confusing! I guess each of the "gurus" have their own version of how to make money through adsense.

I need to be careful of what I read over the internet!
