Have you noticed the new format of Google Adsense ads? Well, I just noticed it this morning and based from what I have read Adsense has this kind of ads since last week.
I don't experience any major changes on my earnings yet on this new format but we'll see the coming weeks.

My Biggest Google Adsense Earning!
This post is kinda late because I already got this last December 31, 2008 but I will still post this just to inspire others that there's still legit money on the internet, especially to those people who give up their Google Adsense already.
I got $216.72 or more than P9,900+ , not really big compared to other blogger but that's big for me because I'm really lazy to blog and update my blog yet I can achieve that. I promised to myself that I will be more hardworking (online) this 2009!

E-Mail From GoDaddy
Last week, I received an e-mail from GoDaddy it's regarding my soon to expire domain name. Actually this blog is soon to expire on February 2009, and I just spent $10+ for the domain and I must say it really worth it especially if you want some traffic from Yahoo! Search getting your own domain is the answer, I just notice blogspot blogs doesn't show up that much on Yahoo! search, Maybe because Google owns BlogSpot.
Yes, I know Google is the #1 search engine, but here in my place people uses Yahoo! more. I really don't know why. Anyway, back to the GoDaddy issue. Actually at first I was hesitant to renew this domain for another year because as you know this blog is banned in Google Adsense. NO, not my Adsense accout but this blog only, because I really didn't know that promoting those PTC, PTR on a blog with Adsense sites is prohibited. Well, I learned it the hard way. Anyway, I decided to renew the domain again, maybe early January or next week (depends on my mood) because this blog still has a PR2 which is important in some ways.

If I Can Turn Back Time
While checking comments on older posts, I found these comment left by Hannah on this post:
"adsense just disabled my account. invalid clicks daw. i swear i didn't click on my own ads and definitely did not encourage anyone to do so. what's scary bout google adsense is that the publisher cannot protect himself from so-called invalid clicks. you're at the mercy of google. btw, adsense prohibits 3rd party ptc links. they will ban you if they find out. good luck."
She left that comment exactly on Tuesday, August 12, 2008 2:11:00 PM PHT, I wonder why I don't see it on that day? Actually I answer all the comments posted here, but I missed that one. If only I saw that comment this one will never happen.

More Ads?
Yesterday, I tweak my blog. Removed some unnecessary codes so that it will loads faster and of course I also take down all the links that pointing to PTC sites so that it will not be a problem to my current ads provider. It's better to be safe, than sorry right? So how's life after Adsense? It's almost the same actually, I'm talking about the earnings.
You know what? I want to try different money makers like Kontera, Chitika etc but I really don't know where to put them. All of my blogs is so crowded with ads and if I put more it's annoying already. Actually I receive some invites from local advertisement company like AsiaCenturyPH and NuffNang Philippines but as I said I can't put on my blogs. Too bad.

A Blog Without Google Adsense :)
If you will notice, I replaced all of the Google Adsense ad spots with BidVertiser, AdBrite and WidgetBucks ads. Well I guess I have to move on without Adsense on this blog. If you're late and haven't heard of the news,this blog is banned from Adsense because they say I promote PTC and PTR sites on this blog, which I didn't really know that it is against their TOS.
But the good thing is, My Adsense account is still active and is working fine with my other blogs. That's it :)

Question And Answer - 2
Dyims asked on this post: "Hi po..ito pong blog na to yung top money maker niyo po sa adsense?"
Good thing is HINDI po! If that's the case I will harakiri now :) Actually eto yung pinakakulelat (dahil sa TaEntreCard = high bounce rate) eh pero sayang din diba? Anyway I will just this share this nice thoughts I read from somewhere:
"if a door is closed on me, I will seek for open windows. If windows are closed I will look for holes. If there are no holes, I will make one so that I can breathe through it and so that God’s blessings will flow through it again!" Nice!

Question And Answer
'mr. nice guy' left a comment on this post and he said: "Why? why are your blog banned by Google. What is your violations then? "
lol, you're not reading :) Actually my blog has been banned because I talk about Paid-To-Click (PTC) sites here and promote them. My earnings from this PTC is not that big, but all that earnings just came from referring others to join. I'm not a clicker actually, I just log-in on this sites once in a while.
So if you have a blog that talked about PTC and you also have Google Adsense on it. Be sure to to remove all links there, it's better to be safe that sorry.

Goodbye Google Adsense
After I received their latest response to my e-mail. Actually I feel sad, I hate this feeling just like what I have said in the comment area: "How can I teach some tips on Google Adsense if on this blog they can't see Google Adsense ads" So I think of ways on how to whilelist this blog, I googled for some answer but to no avail. My case is not the same with the one I found.
But you know what I like about this 'experience' of mine? It pays to read the TOS especially in Adsense :) Good thing they don't banned my whole account but this blog only.

I Received That Dreaded E-mail from Google Adsense Too!
Long title huh? If you're wondering that there's something missing on my blog, this is the explanation. Anyway this is just a quick post, below is the e-mail that I received from Google Adsense team:
Hello,
While reviewing your account, we noticed that you are currently displaying Google ads in a manner that is not compliant with our policies. For instance, we found violations of AdSense policies on pages such as www.makemoneyonline-x.com
As stated in our program policies, AdSense publishers are not permitted to place Google ads on sites with content related to programs offering incentives to click links or ads, read emails, or surf other websites. This would include, for instance, auto-surf sites, pay-to-read email networks, and sites comparing various pay-to-click programs.
As a result, we have disabled ad serving to the site.
Your AdSense account remains active. However, we strongly suggest that you take the time to review our program policies (https://www.google.com/adsense/policies ) to ensure that all of your remaining pages are in compliance.
Please note that we may disable your account if further violations are found in the future.
Sincerely,
The Google AdSense Team
Issue ID#
----------------
To help keep your account in good standing, we recommend all publishers review the policy guidelines found here: https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=23921
Honestly I panicked when I knew that I received an e-mail from adsense-support@google.com, but what a relief that this is just a warning. If you will noticed, no Adsense ads is displayed on this blog, but it's working fine on my other blogs. Actually I never knew that blogging about pay-to-read email networks and PTC sites is prohibited. So if you will notice, I put down the PTC & PTR links on my blog's sidebar. And after I published this post, I will transfer all those PTC-related post on a new blog with no Adsense ads of course. OMG! I will be so sad if Google disabled my account, they're the one who's giving me a continous $100-$140 earnings per month, without so much work.
Finally, if you have noticed that it's September 10 now but I don't have my "Monthly Earnings Round-up" yet, please bear with me I'm working for it and I'm too busy with other things. Anyway, have you received the same e-mail? Tell me your experience please.

How To Get Your Google Adsense Earnings via Western Union?
On my first Google Adsense payment, i accumulated a total of $117.05 in just four months. Today i just received a total of $167.81 that i accumulated in just two months! How did i do it? Read the Google Adsense Optimization Tips that i wrote from my personal experience in Adsense, who knew it might work for you too! I think i'm sounding like a li'l bit of scammer here. LOL :) but i have proof to accompany my words.
This article will tackle about withdrawing your Adsense earnings via Western Union, which is the most convenient way of receiving because there is no waiting for the checks to arrive via mail, and you don't have to wait for long term clearing time in banks. If you earned atleast $100 at the end of April you will probably get your earnings via WU on the last week of May. This $167.81 is my February & March 2008 earnings combined. In the screenshot above you can see that the payment date is: April 24, 2008 but the truth is they just released it yesterday April 27th, i know it because i check my earnings before i sleep everyday.
How will you know that payment has been issued?
In you're Adsense account Dashboard, click the 'Payment History' tab then you will see a 'Payment Issued' link,
then click it you will be brought to a page that contain the following info:
Payment Type: Western Union Quick Cash
Payment Date: Apr 24, 2008
Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) 000756****
Payment Amount: $167.81
In Adsense, it is written there:
Remember to bring the following when you pick up your payment at a local Western Union agent:
The amount of your payment
The Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) for this payment
Your government issued ID (Passport, Driver's License, National ID, etc)
Sender's information:
Google Inc.
1600 Amphitheatre Parkway
Mountain View, CA 94043
USA
Me, i write the MTCN and Google's address and the amount expected on a piece of paper, because you will need this upon receiving your payment. Don't forget to bring a valid ID (i just presented my school ID and my postal ID)
Then your ready to go on a Western Union now? but before that take a bath first! LOL! Not sure where to go? Try this Western Union Agent Locator, to find the WU agent nearest you that is offering Quick Cash option, because some of them don't offer Quick Cash. Be sure to pick up your Western Union payment within 35 days of the payment date, or the amount will be credited back to your AdSense account.
Fill-up a receiving form when you get there, nothing fancy just fill up with your Name, Address, MTCN, Amount Expected, Who Send It, Address of Sender then your signature then they will process your payment for more than 1 minutes and that's it YOUR PAID!
From my $167.81 in Adsense, i opt to received the $100 in US Dollars and the remaining $67.81 in Philippine Peso, in WU $1 USD is equals to P41.60 so i got P2,820.89, which is quite low because according to news it's P41.95 but it's okay i will just exchange the remaining $100 when the Philippine Peso hits P45 per dollar! haha!
So that's it, if you have other Google Adsense Earnings via Western Union related questions don't forget to comment :)

Google Adsense Tips & Tricks
I'm not playing as an expert here but this article may help achieve your first $100 from Google Adsense. I did it in less than 4 months, not so fast but still faster than those other bloggers than already having their Adsense codes in their blogs for more than a year now but didn't get any positive results, if you're one of those i don't intend to hurt you in any way. Just read on who knew after you implemented my 'Google Adsense Tips & Tricks' you will now achieve the $100 mimimum pay-out from Google Adsense.
1. Read the Google Adsense TOS thoroughly.
I think this is the most important tip i can give to any 'Adsensers' out there. I've read so many blog post entitled "My Adsense account is banned!" or "My Adsense account is suspended!" and they end up cursing Adsense to the highest degree possible but the truth is they don't read the Term Of Service (TOS) and just signed up.
2. Patience is a Virtue
There is no quick bucks or instant money on the internet or if there's any that promise you that, that's probably a SCAM and just want to make money out of you.
3. Don't Ever Click Your Own Ads.
This is the most unforgivable act you can do with your Adsense. They absolutely don't tolerate it. Your blog, your name and your account will be banned forever.
4. Put the Ads Above the Fold.
Place the google adsense codes, into the upper part of your blog so that your readers/visitors can able to see it. Remember in Adsense they are paying for every click, if no one clicks on your ads you will have no earnings no matter how many millions visitors your blog is getting.
5. Blend the Ads Into Your Blog Template.
Make your ads appear to be 'not ads at all' so that you're readers will not be annoyed by it. Match the color of the background, the links must be the same color you're using. Don't use any borders, it's unnecessary. If you're gonna be labeling it, the only allowed words is "Sponsored" or "Sponsored Links" they don't allowed labels such as "Favorite Sites" "Click This" "Visit This Links" or any words that invite the users to click on the ads, they must click on their freewill.
6. Use the 336 x 280 Square Ad Format.
This is the most profitable size according to my personal experiences. Place it above the fold, before you're blog posts. I'm using this trick on this blog.
7. Write on a Specific Niche.
I know not everybody will agree with me on this one, but it works for me. Remember Google bot is crawling into your content and display ads according to the topics you write on your blog. Think what ads will be displayed if you write about dogs today, Britney Spears tomorrow and golf techniques the other day.
8. In Adsense, Less is More.
In this ad program, they allow you to put up to 3 'Adsense for Content' ads, 3 Link Ad Units, 2 Adsense for Search and unlimited Referral Ads (not sure!) but that doesn't mean you will put all of this into your blog. In my blog, i'm using 2 Adsense for Content ads, 1 or 2 Link Ad Units, none or 1 Adsense for Search and I don't put any Referral Ads from Adsense, i'm not good at any CPA based programs.
That's it! Those we're the things i'm using into my blogs, test it on your blogs too! who knows it might work.

Make Money Online with Bidvertiser!
Fed up with Google Adsense? Try Bidvertiser it's another pay-per-click program i am using and so far so good for me! Unlike Google Adsense, you don't have to wait to reach the minimum payout of $100 in BidVertiser the minimum payout is $10 and will directly paid to your Paypal account. The payment is sent monthly if you reach atleast $10 in revenue.
In my case last month, i only got $9 in my earnings so i'm $1 short to Bidvertiser's minimum pay-out, but now i already have $12.99 so at the end of this month, April i will finally get my Bidvertiser earnings, yay!
Some Good Things About Bidvertiser:
Make money with affiliate program that pays you for every click
You get paid for every visitor that clicks on an ad. Bidvertiser goal is to enable you to make as much as possible from your advertising space, by letting advertisers bid on your ad space. They pay monthly, either by check, or instantly through PayPal with a minimum of only $10. Check is minimum of $50
Always have the highest bidders displayed on your website
BidVertiser will always display the highest bidders on your site, assuring the maximum revenue possible at any given time.
Have your bidding steadily improved over time
You will see a constant improvement in your bidding over time, as both your visitors and advertisers will be exposed to the opportunity of bidding against each other on your ad space.
Customize the layout of your ads
BidVertiser gives you a simple point-and-click tool to help you customize the layout of the ads to fit your site's look and feel, in order to retain the high quality of your website. This is the best thing about BidVertiser you can match your ads to your blogs so that your readers won't be thinking that it is an advertisement.
Block any unwanted ad
BidVertiser enables you to filter-out any unwanted ads. Prior to your own filtering, each ad has to be pre-approved by their editorial team. This mechanism gives you a peace of mind with regards to the ads displayed on your website.
Generate detailed reports to monitor your ads performance
Use the Publisher Center to generate detailed online reports to monitor your ads performance, including the number of page impressions, clicks, click-through rate, and the total amount you've earned. After you log-in you will easily see how much you've earned because the earnings is strategically displayed at the header.
Some Tips:
1. Place your ad, above the fold so that your readers will easily see it, which can mean higher CTR (click-through-rate) and better earning for you.
2. Match the color of your site. The background color, the link color it has to be the same color your using in your blogs, don't use any border.
3. Like other PPC ad programs don't encourage your readers to click the ads, this act would cause them to ban your name, your account and your blogs.

Is Project Wonderful a Scam?
is Project Wonderful (PW) a Scam? The answer is in this post. But what is Project Wonderful first? PW is an innovative advertising platform that is popularized by it's CPD (cost per day) bidding system, mostly PW ads are placed beside/above or beneath the Entrecard widget because it has the same 125x125 size. In their website they define PW as:
"Project Wonderful brings a model of transparency and fairness to online advertising. Ads are sold through our innovative Infinite Auction model: you bid on an advertising slot, and for as long as you are the high bidder, your ad is displayed. You can bid whatever price you'd like for as long as you'd like: two days, a week, a year - it's your choice.
All bids are in "cost per day" - you simply tell us how much you're willing to pay for a day's worth of advertising, and whenever you are the high bidder, your ad will be displayed! You're only charged for the time periods when your ad is shown. You can also set hard expense limits on your bids, so you'll never get charged more than you expect."
Of course, i think Project Wonderful is not a scam, and because i finally reached their $10.00 pay-out limit i will try to withdraw my earnings thru PayPal. Let's see how fast the withdrawal is.
after i click 'Yes' this is what the website says: "You request to withdraw $11.67 USD has been submitted. You'll be notified of its status both by email and by our internal messaging system.Click here to go back to your funds page." (i know it's so low, but what the heck i just put the code there & wait for advertisers to bid)
i will update this post tommorow.
I put PW ads on my blog last March 19, 2008 and after 22 days i reached the pay-out limit. Actually Project Wonderful has so many potential, it's my 3rd top moneymaker now, next to Google Adsense and Widgetbucks. I recommend it to every blogger! Some improvements i wish to be implemented by Project Wonderful:
1. Ban those ads that are imitating Entrecard widget, it's so annoying that when you 'drop your card' you will be surprise that is redirected to a PW advertiser.
2. Update the servers ;) because on some of my blogs increases it's loading time because of PW.
3. Update the codes, it's so old school, why not generate a small javascript instead of those confusing codes that you need to generate and paste again on your blog if you update the dimension, color ad price, etc.
You? please share some Project Wonderful stories! Is it wonderful?
Update:
I received the payment after one day, for small time blogger like me, it's really worth a try.
4/23/08 - I withdraw $10.66 again.

My Very First Google Adsense Payment
a screenshot from my Google Adsense account dashboard
My earnings last February 2008 was $117.05 or P4,734.67 ($1=PHP40.45) yup that's Philippine Pesos which i got in a local Western Union here last March 3, 2008.I give the half of the amount i received to my lovely mommy and guess what she's so good to me ever since, now she doesn't stop me to use the PC anymore LOL. ;)

if you're not lucky with Google Adsense, try Bidvertiser it's much like Adsense but the minimum payout is only $10 and the ads are highly costumizable too, you control on what ads will be displayed on your site. More info here.

7 Things To Avoid If Your Running Adsense on Your Blog
Google, being the undisputable leader in search engines from then until now, is placing a high importance on the quality and relevancy of its search engines. Most especially now that the company is public property. In order to keep the shareholders and users of its engines happy, the quality of the returned results are given extreme importance. For this same reason, doing the wrong things in the Adsense and other forms of advertisements, whether intentionally or unintentionally, will result in a severe penalty, may get you banned and even have your account terminated. Nothing like a good action taken to keep wrongdoers from doing the same things over again. So for those who are thinking of getting a career in Adsense, do not just think of the strategies you will be using to generate more earnings.
Consider some things first before you actually get involved.
1.Hidden texts. Filling your advertisement page with texts to small to read, has the same color as the background and using css for the sole purpose of loading them with rich keywords content and copy will earn you a penalty award that is given to those who are hiding links.
2.Page cloaking. There is a common practice of using browser or bot sniffers to serve the bots of a different page other than the page your visitors will see. Loading a page with a bot that a human user will never see is a definite no-no. This is tricking them to click on something that you want but they may not want to go to.
3.Multiple submissions. Submitting multiple copies of your domain and pages is another thing to stay away from. For example, trying to submit a URL of an Adsense as two separate URL's is the same as inviting trouble and even termination. Likewise, this is a reason to avoid auto submitters for those who are receiving submissions. Better check first if your domain is submitted already an a certain search engine before you try to submit to it again. If you see it there, then move on. No point contemplating whether to try and submit there again.
4.Link farms. Be wary of who and what are you linking your Adsense to. The search engines know that you cannot control your links in. But you can certainly control what you link to. Link farming has always been a rotten apple in the eyes of search engines, especially Google. That is reason enough to try and avoid them. Having a link higher than 100 on a single page will classify you as a link farm so try and not to make them higher than that.
5.Page rank for sale. If you have been online for quite some time, you will notice that there are some sites selling their PR links or trading them with other sites. If you are doing this, expect a ban anytime in the future. It is okay to sell ads or gain the link. But doing it on direct advertisement of your page rank is a way to get on search engines bad side.
6.Doorways. This is similar to cloaking pages. The common practice of a page loaded with choice keyword ads aimed at redirecting visitors to another "user-friendly" page is a big issue among search engines. There are many seo firms offering this kind of services. Now that you know what they actually are, try to avoid them at all costs.
7.Multiple domains having the same content. In case you are not aware of it, search engines look at domains IP's, registry dates and many others. Having multiple domains having the same exact content is not something you can hide from them. The same goes with content multiplied many times on separate pages, sub domains and forwarding multiple domains to the same content. Many of the above techniques apply to most search engines and is not entirely for Google only. By having a mind set that you are building your Adsense together with your pages for the human users and not for bots, you can be assured of the great things for your ads and sites.Not to mention avoiding the wrath of the search engines and getting your Adsense and site account terminated altogether.
