USD $485.80 From Google Adsense

I’m happy today, you see what I have just received right? It is a cheque with amount of USD $485.80 From Google Adsense. But this is a hard work and a lot of things to understand. I did a lot of mistakes right and left but after I think I have positioned myself in a good place.

First, I want to thank to all the fan and visitors around the world. You might feel a bit strange to know my name and have learned that I am a blogger from Cambodia. But yes, Cambodia has bloggers too. This is the starting good point.

It was hard for me to do balance on this blog. It make me think a lot and due to the time constraints, things are moving very slow. At the beginning I start to tell myself well if my blog can make 1 USD per day, it would be great. Then I started to implement Google adsense on this blog with a lot of hesitations that the Ads will disturb the readers. I really don’t want my blog to become a place where people hate it because of its ads and advertising.

It took me sometime to adjust the Ads placement and writing good contents to provide the relevant Ads to the visitors. This is important. This blog is not just about money but sharing news, lifestyle, technology and other things. I think now the blog provide good contents and original ones. I plan to hire some good writers to explore more topics about Cambodia and social media. I need to have a good budget for this. Now this blog started to earn 5 USD per day, I do hope it will last long and continue to grow so that I can invite good writers, bloggers from Cambodia to write for this blog.

I plan also to write an eBook to tell you exactly how I run this blog. The ebook would go under title of “How To Create A Blog From Your Passion”. I will start to write the eBook and give you more details when this daily 5 USD is sustained. This will prove to you that thing I do is working.

It would be interesting to share with you about my experiences in blogging world.

Thank again to all your supports!

    Another 300$ check for me is coming soon! Cheer!
    According to my personal experience. Having making money with Adsense for more than 1 year (1 and 4 month and total 450$) I have learned very much. I learn many entrepreneur skill from google. I get stuck, I resolve, I improve a lot. At first they don’t pay anything for me coz I don’t know how to earn a lot. But then they start to pay for my break first (let’s say 0.6 to 1$ daily). and now they pay for my university fee. Even if I sleep but my blog/article don’t sleep, they works!

    Now I am working on a new project that work as Adsense revenue sharing website. And I do need some wish ! :) Can you gimme a wish!
    To our success!

    Thank for your comment Sereyboth, This is a very good news, I hope we can share a lot of experience together. The making money online is hard but the good thing is it didn’t require any budget to start it.

    I started to use little budget, invest on this blog and now I just see a little light to find my way out. I wish you could earn a lot more soon, Stay connected!

    It is interesting also to learn that we can earn from Adsense without having our own website, Maybe you want to share this with others, you can do a guest post here. I setup before a sharing revenue with Adsense but since nobody contact me for this, I disable it. But if you think you want to post and become a contributor here, let me know, you will get 100% of the revenue from your post.

    I have a long dream to create a blog to talk about internet marketing too. And I will try to contact you post guest article soon!
    Wait to get from me!

    Hi Friend. I am so happy to hear that our Khmer people can earn money from google. I used to use google adsense before but I was stuck with PIN confirmation. The PIN was requested but never delivered even I trid to change and use my friend address which is easy to access. Can you please help to share with these?

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      I think I remember now, After I send request pin for 3 time, I got another link that I can send email to Google Adsense support for help. They I got their reply back and asked to scan the documents etc, then pin was enable by Google Adsense support teams.

      How many time you have requested for Pin?

      • Vichet

        Hi Santel. Thanks for your useful information. I had requested twice if I am not wrong and I’ve contacted google for PIN activiation now.. hope they will activate it soon.. Thanks again friend.

  • Vichet

    … and which bank in Phnom Penh can we cash this check? Thanks friend.

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      I am using Canadia bank because I have account there, but I think Sereyboth using Acleda bank.

      • Vichet

        Do we have to pay any fee or how much does the bank charge?

        • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

          If i remember well, they charge me 40 USD for cheque clearing.

          • Vichet

            Wow.. USD 40 is huge..

    Congratulation! I just created blogger blog for myself cuz i saw the article on the internet MAKING MONEY ONLINE WITH ADSENSE but till today my application is still waiting for approval….. However, i really happy to see your result and i have learned for it a lot. Keep going my friend, you’ll get more than this :D

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      Hope you will get approval soon, let me know if I could help.

  • http://twitter.com/sereyboth Sereyboth

    @Vichet the pin code is very hard to get in Cambodia because the post office in Poor penh is so poor. I was very lucky to be a neighbor with a mail delivery man and so he can deliver to me quite easy. I recommend you to buy post office box for 10$ a years (Some people use to tell me like this when they cannot get Adsense pin code).

    Any bank in Cambodia can clear the check so don’t worry too much about it!

    • Vichet

      Thanks Sereyboth. I will consider to open a box at post office..

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      Yes, it is a good idea to have a Post box is Post office. This will make sure you receive all mails or you can ask for sending by express.

  • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

    @Vichet, I didn’t get the pin as well but I write to Google and they asked me to scan my passport (you can use your ID card) or bill. Then Google team has active my pin.

    I forget the way I sent mail to Google, let me check a bit,

  • http://www.simplyzesty.com Niall Harbison

    Well done on the check. I don’t know about you but when I get stuff like that through the post it always makes me want to go out and double it for the next one!

  • http://www.vuthasurf.com vutha

    Congratulation!!!! you will come true. how many time do you get cheque from google. You are good cambodian blogger. For me, my earning is increasing a little. I plan to earn at least $10 per day. Now, I earn only $5 per day…..

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      I think you will reach the goal soon.

    Hi, Khmerbird
    I am very happy that see khmer blogger can earn money from google adsense.
    I want to ask you some questions but not related to adsense is to clickbank.
    Do you have experience with clickbank? I think that Clickbank can earn money more than adsense.
    http://techs-n-talk.blogspot.com
    thanks.

  • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

    Adsense is a pay per click advertising program, clickbank is an affiliate program, you got paid when people buy product with your affiliate links,

    It depends on what kind of blog you have,

    Hello all of you! I am very happy to see khmer blogger can earn money from google adsense. I join google adsense about 2 month ago with my blog. I have research all things that relate to adsense, now I know more about it. But my earning is still very poor. I just can earn over 10$ since I join google adsense. My problem is the traffic to my site. My site is low traffic, I have used twitter, stumbleupon, netlog, and google search engine to drive traffic to my site, but is not success. So I want to stay connect with all of you. I think we all can share idea together about google adsense and increase our earning. I want to know some tips about getting visitor to my blog, and how to increase adsense earning. if anyone can give me please sent to my Email: [email protected] Thanks to all of you.

      If you read my latest post, you might know some reason why. WordPress can spread the contents by ping functions, one you publish you content, we can ping our contents to the blog direction and search engine,

      But first of all you need to have a good blog that people want to read, thank for dropping comment here, I think the first thing you might want to consider is to move your blog to WordPress,

    I have asked DHL employee, he is the one that carry the Check for me. he said that there only 30 check to cambodia. but here i see alot cambodian pp can earn with adsense. nice to see

  • sok savda

    Now I can earn over 10$ per day from google adsense. thanks to all of you for giving me some tips. but now my problem is pin code. I have request for pin 2 time, but now I do not get my pin yet, I do not know where to get my pin. my earning now nearly 200$.

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      don’t worry, try to request again, i am not sure if it’s 3rd or 4th time, you will have a link to write to support, they will ask you to send some documents such as ID or Passport, Mobile phone bill or bank statement etc,

      By then they will activate the pin for you, it worked for me this way.

      Congratulation! let me know if you have any other question.

      • http://fantook.com Rithirun

        I have this matter also, after i request them for 4 time, then they accept my account with pin code.

        • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

          Congratulation for your Adsense Account.

    Thank for the good article…
    Nice to see Cambodians earning money from Adsense . I just create a new website with Google Adsense, But I earned only $ 0.71 per month.
    How to get more money from Google?

    • http://khmerbird.com Santel PHIN

      There’s no special tips for it but it depends on traffic, keyword and position of the ads, best way is to create good contents that will drive more traffic and showing relevant Adsense Ads, then you will get clicks and earn.

        I liked your post but my opinion does not count for much. Now clicking on my name to help people make money has counted a lot. A lot of money that is.

    Hi i don’t know much about adsense. i’ve request for pin. but Where can i receive the pin, Post office is it, right?

    • http://khmerbird.com/ khmerbird

      Normally they will send the pin to your home address. If you have a post box at post office, it would be more convenience!

      Try to request many time, when it is reach the maximum request, you will see a link where you can contact them via email for verification.

      Good luck

      • http://www.facebook.com/ice.brok3n Suon Virak Panha

        So. Is that mean i need to open a post box at the post office. Then request for the pin. After that i’ll receive the pin via my post box. is it right? thank for help

        • http://khmerbird.com/ khmerbird

          You can try with your home address first, but by experience, via a Post Box would be more efficient.

          • http://www.facebook.com/ice.brok3n Suon Virak Panha

            So the Post office will bring the mail to my home for me?

          • http://khmerbird.com/ khmerbird

            No, you have to go and check your post box regularly!

          • http://www.facebook.com/ice.brok3n Suon Virak Panha

            I don’t have post box at the post office. I need to go to post office and ask if there is any mails that someone send to me, is it right?
