Earning good? I was reading Google AdSense’s Blog and found a good tip on improving your earning by optimizing your ad placement on your site or blog.

  1. Enable your ad units to show text and image ads.
  2. Put the ads near your content.
  3. Use top-performing ad sizes like medium rectangle (300×250), large rectangle (336×280), leaderboard (728×90) and wide skyscraper (160×600).

Well, good luck with your earnings.

I was just looking through some of my old post on my personal web blog (http://nickchan.net) and a funny and horny ad appeared on my sidebar on the Google Adsense Skyscrapper Ad area. The Chinese words mean “Hot, Sexy and Beautiful Girl’s Wallpaper. Free for you 2 hottest wallpaper.” It’s just so random and when I checked that page again, it never shown up again.

Unfortunately, the advertiser failed to get me to click on it. *Clicking on your own Adsense is no good.*

I have actually placed Google Adsense in my blog for more than one year and only now I reached the payout target. I am quite happy about it, although it’s not a big money, but it’s gaining from time to time and it helps me to cover my web hosting fee.

Payment has been easy now as I can receive payment via Western Union service in cash instead of in a cheque. Cheque (check) usually takes 2 weeks to send from the States to Malaysia and bank will charge you some percent for foreign cheque bank in.

But with Western Union, I get the exact amount, according to the exchange rate from USD to MYR in cash and coins. The exchange rate that I got on that day as of 29/10/08 was 3.53MYR to 1USD.

Receiving your payment is easy.

  1. Wait for your Payment Details to show up after you reach the payment target.
  2. Write down the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN), payment amount and Google’s address. I would print that page out makes your job a lot easier.
  3. Bring a photocopy of your IC. (CIMB Bank did photocopy for me)
  4. Visit any bank with Western Union logo on it.
  5. Ask for the Yellow Form (for receiving money) and fill it in.
  6. Go to the counter, wait for your cash. =)

You will be asked what is source of the cash. You can said it’s “payment from Internet advertising”.

Search for a Western Union Agent location.
