I received my 4th Google Adsense Cheque! I showed off the green cheque to my dad. He was quietly looking at the cheque. I didn’t explain to him in details on how I get the money except to tell him that it was from the computer.
Bulk of the clicks come from my Mathematics blog which I share with my readers on the tips and strategies to master Mathematics especially the GCE O Level systems.
Recently I observed an increased number of ads on the page on tuition, more tuition. This prompts me to consider if I could continue putting up the ads or just remove them (since those ads might distract my reader and perhaps compete with my services)
I’m still weighing the pros and cons.
But nevertheless, this cheque will be part of my play fund to get a WII + Guitar Hero in October!
So are you still receiving your Google Adsense Cheques or you have moved on to another level?
I would love to hear from you. Drop me a comment or so.
For those who have yet to receive anything from Google, hold on to your persistence. It will be in your mailbox soon 
I waited for quite a while too!

It was a really good feeling to receive cheque (green ones) in my mailbox unknowingly. I got my 3rd Adsense Cheque after a 5 month wait. My 2nd one came in late October.

Well, it is unlike others who received green cheques monthly! with amount totaling over thousands of dollars. Mine is usually around 150+ SGD.
Though my amount is insignificant, it fuels my motivation to continue to share my expertise and thoughts with the world, benefitting readers both globally and locally, one at a time. My Adsense Cheque also (barely) pays for my hosting fees with Hostgator (Been using their services since 2007) and my domain names with NameCheap.
On top of that, I also use any remaining money to buy ebooks, home study courses once a blue moon. I have been cutting down on that since I have piles of materials yet to complete reading & implementing!
For those who have yet to get your 1st Adsense Cheque, work hard and smart towards it and most importantly keep your faith. The 1st one is usually a long wait afterall it’s a steep learning curve. The eventual cheques will arrive much faster provided you continue to working on your blogs!
Based on the estimation, I will perhaps get 3 cheques annually which will total to perhaps $450 SGD. Well, after paying off Hostgator, NameCheap, oh yes aweber! I think it’s not even sufficient! Not to mention getting a WII console.
Look likes I need to work harder!
I would definitely love to hear from your Internet Income experiences and perhaps how you use the money. Leave me a comment or question.

adsense cheque
Yeah! The first one was a long wait after almost 1 year. The second one came slightly faster: 4 months after I received my first one in June.
Here’s my 2nd one:
I guess some of you might been interested to know how I do it.
- Consistent Valuable Content on my niche topics for my readers
- I read books from Adsense guru like Joel Comm (I bought his adsense secrets 4.0 for $9.95(usd) and read and of cos apply 1 – 2 of the strategies he taught) To be honest, I was lazy as I did not track the progress of the strategies I imply
- My personal advice to all bloggers who want to get more out of Adsense is first ensure that there is a consistent level of traffic to your site.
This book is now FREE with a risk-free subscription plan which you can cancel anytime. I thought this is really an irresistible offer.More details here
I would love to hear from bloggers who have consistently made revenue from Adsense as well as those who have tried for many months (like me , one year for my first cheque to come by) and yet to see the results.
Drop me your comments and perhaps your personal strategies for more to benefit from your experience.
PS: I heard from friends that they have friends who get their Adsense cheque real fast as they get their friends to help them to click on the ads. Beware that Google has its means to track the clicks! I must admit I did ask my friends to click for me for the first month when I started off with Adsense but it will not work out long term.
PPS: Never write for the sake of Adsense, write with the right intention to value add your readers with the topic you are passionately about and you will be rewarded accordingly.

Update: I got my 2nd Cheque as of October 31, 2008
I was introduced to the concept of Internet Marketing in May 2007 during World Internet Summit Singapore. Was totally blown off by the ideas being introduced. I started off like a wild horse, dabbling into different types of Internet Tools.
I was totally overwhelmed.
I was totally excited.
I was totally frustrated as I do not know what to focus on. (There are million and one things)
BUT I learnt many things which are totally not what most gurus mention:
- There is no such thing as being a millionaire overnight!
- It is not as easy as perceived to have a online income BUT it is true that anyone can achieve passive income in any niches (aka fields of INTEREST)
Note: I mention field of INTEREST. The niche which you choose to spend your time and sweat in must be an area you are 100% passionate about NOT primarily for $ but to make differences (small and huge) in tens, hundreds and thousands of life locally and globally.
- It takes effort and consistency, definitely the right set of objectives to share and help too.
Only then will you be rewarded for your effort. I got this Google Adsense primarily for my passion in spreading what I know best in – Mathematics tips and strategies to help students, parents and educators to enhance their learning and teaching journey. Yes! It took my 1 year to earn a cheque from Google. I will be sharing in my Adsense journey in my post later.
Meanwhile, to everyone out there, Adsense is true! and ANYONE can achieve what you want as long as we perserve on to our goals!
