My Private Thoughts
Thinking Allowed

Its June 27 and I’m hovering around the US$191 mark on Adsense.

I just have 3 days to hit my personal target of US$200 a month on Adsense income. I’ve been consistently hitting it for the past 2 months.

Don’t fail me now!

With rising fuel costs and the approaching recession (or is it already upon us?) this is a bad time indeed to be caught out with bad credit. This is the time you need money and it is a time when you may have to turn to loans or personal financing or any means of borrowings to tide you over the bad time.

Times like these, you may have to consider looking at your credit history and if you have to, fix bad credit. Its easier said than done though. Its not as easy as paying off all your loans and then sitting back to let your credit recover itself. You have to get out there and make sure that it your bad credit is fixed and that it recovers and that your credit turns up trumps again should you need to rely on it.

If you don’t have the means to do it yourself or don’t know how to go about fixing bad credit, its time to turn to people who can help. So, what do you want to do? Moan about not getting a loan or doing something about it?

I just cashed out my Adsense today

Unfortunately the exchange rate is now so low

In the 3 months that I’ve been cashing out Adsense, I’ve had the rate drop from RM3.6 to RM3.1 today to US$1. This is terrible because it means my earnings don’t net me as much as I should get!

I know wishing for a strong USD at this point is asking to kill the world economy, but at least I’d have some satisfaction of earning more from Adsense! *evil*

Oh well, at least I’m still cashing out money. $200 next month! Woohoo!

Oh my goodness!

I’m so very happy I can’t help myself.

I was just complaining a few days ago about not earning very much with Adsense now that I have changed one of my templates. I also wrote once about how I felt that my adsense earnings were actually getting a trifle embarrassing.

Well, when the year started, I set myself a target of $100 a month. This would ensure that I will be able to cash out my adsense money every month and ensure a steady income too. I’m not earning very much through other forms of online income anymore. The days of hitting a monthly income of $1000 are past. But I can still make a little and adsense i s one of the ways.

Anyway, last month, I hit $198. I was impressed! It helped that one of my sites is popular.  No, I’m not telling you which! But it is, and its getting a good share of clicks on the adsense ads. I have also another niche site which has very high paying keywords and though the traffic there is low, then I get clicks there, its very good money.

So, I set myself a new target of $200. Ambitious. But when I hit $100 within the first 2 weeks of April, I knew something big was in order. True enough, I checked my adsense account this morning and found that I’d hit my targetted $200!!

Is it the secret in action? I’ve been thinking very positively about earning that much and I did. Maybe the laws of attraction really do work

I can’t wait till May when I get to cash out my April earnings. Ah sweet smell of moolah!
