Eurm, I have been talking much about other things and forgot to update you on the current latest improvement on Adsense. So, this time I just want to tell you that Google has made it available to all AdSense publishers from selected countries in Asia, Europe, and South America to use Western Union instead cashing out their check or bank transfer. This is believed to save a lot of time and money as well.

What is Western Union Quick Cash (WUQC)?

It is a payment method which allows you to receive your AdSense payments in cash using the worldwide Western Union money transfer service. Your payyment will be made available within 24 hours after payment issued and can be picked up at your nearest local Western Union Agent.

The Western Union Quick Cash payment is in US dollars. You may receive your payment in your local currency according to the exchange rate used by the Western Union Agent of the day you pick up your payment.

Things to know before you sign up.

Before you sign up, please keep these important points in mind:

* Western Union Quick Cash is only available in Argentina, Chile, China (Mainland), Colombia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Peru, the Philippines, and Romania. We’ll be sure to let you know if we’re able to offer new payment options to additional publishers.

* This payment method is currently only available to individual payee names ONLY.

* You’ll need to bring your government-issued ID to pick up your payment, so please make sure that your AdSense account payee name exactly matches that of your ID.

* Payments must be picked up within 35 days of issuance or they will expire. If this happens, a payment hold will be placed on your AdSense account and the payment will be credited back to your account.

* Payments will be made in US dollars, but depending on your local Western Union agent, they may be picked up in your local currency.

This is how you switch your payment method to using WUQC.

1. Sign in to your account at www.google.com/adsense.
2. Visit the My Account tab.
3. Click the ‘edit’ link adjacent to the ‘Payment Details’ header.
4. Select the Western Union Quick Cash radio button.
5. Click ‘Continue’.
6. Click ‘Save Changes’ to save your payment type.

I have been busy building up network of websites to maximize my revenue from the Internet. While surfing online, I found this interesting articles explaining how you can triple you current adsense income easily with only 4 steps. According to the author, this method has been widely used by newspaper ad reps for years which is cutting down the middle man.

Here are the steps explained.

• Step 1 - Put Google Adsense on your website.
• Step 2 - Wait.
• Step 3 - Write down every URL of the advertisers that shows up on your site (you can usually keep hitting refresh on your page to get new ones)
• Step 4 - Contact these websites and sell them direct ads instead.

From my point of view, I see this as “customer/client stealing”. I might be interested in implementing this idea but still hesitate due to the fact that I use Adsense on ALL my sites and it is my last wish to get banned from Adsense and lose great amount of money. Until Google has saying in this matter (maybe some of you can prove it legit), I will stay out and see how it goes. (yeah, I know someone who did this trick other than the author ;))

If you are interested in doing this yourself, the author has prepared letter template for you to send to the advertisers. All you need to do is to spice it a little bit to your taste and you are good to go.

My apologies for being offline for a few days. I forgot to pay my monthly bill and got my account suspended by my host. lol.

Now I have paid for 1 whole year hosting which means there shouldn’t be any unexpected downtime in the future (unless my host messed up).

So, there is nothing new from me so far..I will try to post some new articles some time soon. I was being busy building my free web directory and my own proxy template site. Currently, I just finished optimizing my template site by doing some modification and SEOing to the site. As a result, you can see it online at Free Custom Proxy Template. Also being worked on is my Free Web Directory within the xytheMe.

The site ranked well in SERPS and well worth the time I spent on them. So, if you have some websites, you are invited to submit them on my directory. Please read the guidelines to assure your site acceptance. Also, if you have proxy template which need to be advertised, feel free to use the contact form on xytheMe.com to contact me. You can read more on this page.

Till next time.
