My Adsense Journey starts

I'm in the mood for blogging..lah la la... :-)

Here I am again making another blog! I've got 3 on the go at them moment, my lotto blog [link] , my xbox 360 videos blog [link] , and my little used Glytch Blog [link].

This one is all about my wish to make some money with adsense, I have been fiddling around with blogs and web design for quite a while now and I've always wanted a little fiddle with googles adsense code.

My journey started when I noticed a site by guy called Wissam [link] and thought it was a nice personal site rather than the pseudo-corporate sites that most other adsense earners make so I left a comment and now after an email or two and some Skype chatting I have entered the world of adsense income!

Wissam helped me out a bit by recommending Swiki [link] which will create a cloud of keywords on your site that is customisable by you and even the ability to add your own adsense code to their results which is useful for indexing because of the keywords.

Now all I have to do is create some content rich sites that can get indexed and get some traffic. My first one is the Xbox 360 Videos site and I've added adsense to the top and right side bars.

I've also added some google refer buttons on my lotto blog and now I'm going to add some here.

I used to have an adsense account before but I haven't logged on for months and months so it was a nice surprise to see it already had 17 USD in it! sweet. now only 83 more to go to get my first payment! (which should be electronically after I set it up with adsense)

Oh and also on my first day, I bought a list of the 2000 top keywords used by google which seems to be filled with references to insurance and equity/mortgage/secured loans. Hmmm don't think I'll be making any exciting sites about them!! There are some useful ones in there though and I'm sure some peeps may be able to get some use out of it. want it for free?
