Get Your Adsense $$$ via Western Union Quick Cash in Pakistan


Google Adsense
Google Adsense is no doubt the world’s best ad network but until now the most annoying thing about it was that it did not allow fast payment methods like Western Union Money Transfer or Bank Wire Transfer rather it was restricted to the traditional check delivery system which came through regular mail and could take weeks to reach you. Plus you had to then deposit your check to your bank account and wait 1 month more to get it processed but the good news is that Adsense has introduced a new fast method of getting your payments.
Google has introduced a new payment option for Pakistan and some other countries. Western Union Quick Cash is a payment option that lets you receive your Google AdSense payments in cash via the worldwide Western Union money transfer service.
It means that now:
  • No more wait for check through standard delivery
  • No more extra Bank fees
  • No more long term clearing times as associated with deposit checks
  • Fast money making and Fast delivery
Payments will be available for pick up at your local Western Union Agent the day after they are sent according to the normal payment schedule. That’s right, just one day waiting time!
Now you can opt for Western Union Quick Cash option in your Google AdSense account. To find out whether this option is available in your account, login to your AdSense account, go to Account Settings under the My Account tab, then click the [edit] link next to the Payment Details. If you see a Western Union Quick Cash section above the check options, then you are the lucky one!

Received First Payment from Google Adsense

I’m so excited, I just can’t hide it….” Come on, sing along with me! It took me a few months, but I finally reached the magic $100 mark for Google Adsense, and received my first payment for $102.59 US, for my Google Adsense ads.
I opted in to receive my payment via Western Union Quick Cash, so the details about my western union payment appears in my adsense account next to my September payment.

The interesting thing is that Google didn’t charge any processing fee to transfer funds and it was very convenient to receive payment from Western Union.
It was very quick and easy to get payment, no need to wait for months to transfer your money to your bank accounts.
Thanks to Google for providing great services.

How to Make Money with google adsense


Making Money online with google adsense
You will find a lot of eBooks for sale on the Internet with promises like “What Google Never Told You about AdSense!” or “Get rich fast with google adsense“. I’d like to call bullshit on that, since Google actually has a lot of quality information. If you look in the right places. Besides, the Internet is full of specialized snippets on the subject.

Truth is that you can get rich but it needs lot of hard work, tons of visitors to your site and better understanding of SEO (search engine optimization). I am a bit reluctant to promise you riches beyond belief, but a monthly payout of a couple of hundred dollars and up should be easily within reach with a modest amount of visitors.
What you want is to make more people click on google adsense ads, and here’s how to do it!
  • Develop a content rich site/blog

  • Get listed by the major search engines including google, yahoo and msn
  • Select the right placement for your ads (in between your content)
  • Select the right type of ads (square ads normally performs better)
  • Blend your ads with your sites contents
  • Track your performance with channels.
  • Earn Money!
Stay tuned for more details ;)

AdSense Optimization Tips & Tricks


Google Adsense is no doubt the world’s best ad network in contextual advertising. You can generate more revenue than that you are currently earning with just few fine tunings. Google held a webinar for AdSense publishers in July, 2007. They gave out some great adsense optimization tips that they have gathered over the past few years. The original Webinar transcript is very lengthy, so here’s a quick summary:
  • Ad Location – “the middle, above the fold location perform best.” Also “if you have an article page with a long body of text, the bottom of that article is actually pretty successful”
  • Ad Formats – “the top three formats are the 336×280 that you see on the page; the 300×250 medium rectangle; and then the 160×600 wide skyscraper.” Additionally “the wider ad formats are doing better than the other ones and the reason is that they actually take up fewer lines. And so with every additional line, you have a chance of losing that interested user.”
  • Ad Colors – Pick colors that blend well with the site. Matches the background color, and compliments the site. Make them feel like a part of the site. They give an example where a customer went from blended background to yellow, and clicks dropped 65%
  • Ad Blindness – if the colors stick out too much, readers may immediatly identify them as ads and not even look at them. Also frequent readers may stop reading ads so you could alternate positioning and colors to get their attention. “The more you blend in with the site, the less chance that ad blindness will occur.”
  • Experiment – this was a big theme in the webinar echoed by all experts. Use channels to test different colors, positioning, and formats to find out what works best. They show that you can more than double your revenue just by finding the right color, position, format combo.
  • Image Ads – If you want to maximize revenue they recommend turning them on. I personally disable them in my account, because I find them too distracting/annoying to the user. Yes you may increase your CPC, but you will probably decrease impressions over time.
  • Link Units – Don’t take up much space, and also “allows the user to refine what they’re interested in. So if they may not be interested in specific ads on your page, they might be interested in a particular topic, and by clicking on a link unit and a link in the link unit, they’ll be able to specify that they’re interested in that specific topic and get a lot more options and variety on the ads that might appear.” I also bet google remembers what they click on and then tries to generate better ads for the page… just my speculation.
  • AdSense For Search – You can use this for your site search, and you get a percentage of ad clicks.
  • Never click on your own ads – One of the callers asked the question “I was just noticing that someone asked about clicking on their own ads and it says you’re not supposed to. And I don’t remember reading that. And I occasionally do click on the ads… So is that detrimental in some way?” – I can’t believe they said that to google. Google’s response was: “Yes, that’s sort of chief among the terms and conditions”.
  • Impression Counter – Google confirmed that Page Impressions are counted when a public service ad (or alternate ad url or color) is displayed.
  • Your site is unique – all these things may not matter, the best location, format, and color is different for every site. So again, go experiment.
