Quote:who's earned through google adsense?is it advisible to get paid by cheque ama via direct bank transfer?
As alma and elder have said u can only be paid through checks & now western union.
With checks there are 2 types:
Check - Standard Delivery(sent by regular mail arrives 2-3 weeks of mailing date)
Check - Secured Express Delivery (sent via courier and should arrive within 1 week & you will be charged €17.00 Processing Fee)
You want it fast that is in 1 week u will have to buy back those xtra 2 weeks for €17.00.
With western union though haven't used it yet you get to pick up your money the next day after the payment date.
Quote:You have the option of receiving the money in euros or dollars at $100 or 75 euros.
Just to clarify something
you don't receive your money in Euros or dollarsYour earnings in the adsense account will be in either Euros or dollars but you will receive the money in Kenya shillings at the exchange rate of the day of payment.
Quote:Note kenyan banks stay with the funds for 4 weeks and the check should get to you from google in 4 weeks. So give it 8 weeks to get your cash.
This is not true at all i have been using adsense for 2 years now and whenever i bank the check i get the money within just a few days.
FYI: Google have an account at City Bank in Upper Hill Road, Nairobi. That's where you will exactly be paid from. So i don't understand the issue of banks staying with the funds for 4 weeks.
Quote:hehe sawa al.1 more q tho,hw much does the bank cut?
The bank doesn't cut anything you get your full earnings plus the cents
Quote:My two cents: don't rely on Google Ads for revenue. They will not make you wealthy.
Part of this statement is true but the fact is that the people having very poor earnings with adsense have either poor content targeting low paying keywords or have just one or two websites.
In short
ALL KEYWORDS ARE NOT EQUAL If you really want to be successful in Adsense target high paying keywords with a lot of traffic.
Also don't expect to receive good earnings from just a one or two websites. The more the merrier. Simple maths if one site gets you €0.50
a day for example, what if you had 100 such sites? That's right u will be making €5.00 a day
As you have seen it takes a lot of research and initial hard work to be really successful with Google Adsense.
Good Luck!
