How to Withdraw AdSense Earning Using CIMB Bank Western Union?

Google has been introducing Western Union Quick Cash payments for Malaysian Google Ads publishers since September 2007. This is great news for us as we no need to rely too much on check payment which mostly will take longer time to process. This mean you no need to wait for 10 days for Adsense check arrives and another 30 days for the Adsense check to clear in the local Malaysia bank.

How to Withdraw Adsense Earning via CIMB Bank Western Union?

On each end of the month, you will be given MTCN (Money Transfer Control Number) from Western Union. It is a 10 digit number that you need to write down this MTCN in the form. You can get this by logging in your Google Adsense account.

Is It Possible to Use AdSense and InfoLinks at Same Page?

Do you think can we use Google AdSense and InfoLinks on the same page? Will it against Google terms of service? As I known, InfoLinks provide in-text advertisement which you may see that some terms in the text are hyperlinked to the advertiser’s website.

Based on the Google terms of service, it is possible to place your Google ads with other ads on the same page with the condition that your non-Google ads formatting or colors are different Google ads. In the other words, you need to make sure that it should always be clear to the user that the ads are served by different advertising networks.

So, you now can monetize your website with in text ads together with Google AdSense ads with no worries. Google does not have anything against in-text ads. The in text ads that I recommended to use is Infolinks since it is widely used by many publishers to create a stream of revenue to supplement Adsense.

Here’s an example how the Infolinks shows on my site:

Google Adsense Click Fraud

We have heard a lot of bloggers complaint about Google Adsense accounts getting banned. Most of the reason observed in most of these cases is click fraud. Do you know what is click fraud? It is the act of clicking on ads for the purpose of earning income from the advertisers. Based on the Google Adsense terms of service and policies, if the publishers perform click fraud then it will result in their accounts being banned. Thus, please don’t try to play this fool game.

Most of the people have their same thinking that forming a click fraud community to help each other to click their ads is healthy activities since Google may not know the person perform self-clicking as the IP address always different. This is stupid action entirely. Google can do more than what you expected!!!

My First Advertlets Payout

Advertlets is founded by Josh Lim & Associates.

As everybody known, making money with Advertlets is no longer a secret. Nowadays, there are many new and existing bloggers quite actively discussing about this local advertising program in our Malaysia’s popular forum - Lowyat.net. Even though there is a lot of complaints about Advertlets but at least, it does pay me the money in the end. See the proof below:

But, do you know how long can I get the payment? See the date I cashed out the advertising earning below:

Beware: Advertlets Is A Scam !!!

Do you know why I give up the Advertlets and switch to Nuffnang? The reason is they don’t pay you for what you earn. Advertlets is a scam!!! Advertlets is the Malaysia Advertising Network Scammer!!!

Non-existent Payout System From Advertlets

Honestly, I have a very bad experience with Advertlets. If you compare with Nuffnang, the payout ratio is far better, you can see that there are quite great number of people who’re getting paid, and never have the issue of non-paying unless the blogger perform click fraud.

If you just do simply search “Advertlets not paying” in Google, you may found that there are more than 2,000 unsatisfied bloggers blame on their payout process. So, it is not just me who’re being “scammed” of this Malaysia advertising revenues, but thousands of them.

Try to do a simple math. Let’s just estimate a small amount of the unsatisfied bloggers who’re not getting paid, to be around 1000 and minimum cash out quota of RM100.

Thus, 1000 x RM100 = RM100,000.

Very Poor Support From Advertlets

Nuffnang vs Advertlets

I believe these 2 advertising company are the biggest and most commonly heard local blog advertising agencies in the Malaysian blogosphere.

Yes…It’s pay per click program but it depends on your traffic (impression) also. You can have Nuffnang and Advertlets on your blog at the same time. You will only see the default Nuffnang banner if there are no sponsors for you.

Comparison Between Nuffnang and Advertlets

It’s a common scene to have people asking on which of these 2 being the better. Nuffnang and Advertlets are different from Google Adsense, Adsense is text based ads and the other two are graphical ads, so I don’t think the click will be separated

From what I’ve known, Nuffnang will pay per impression when a campaign is in place. Nuffnang will update your earnings every week in the dashboard while you may check your Advertlets daily earnings.

Nuffnang can cash out at RM50 while Advertlets allow you to cash out at RM100 which is take more time to achieve.

More people prefer Nuffnang than Advertlets since Advertlets have some problem in their payout system, they always did not pay bloggers earning in timely manner.

The Thing That Advertlets Can Compete With Nuffnang

Advertlets have Blogvertorials, means you write a post with pictures. After successfully doing so, they’ll pay you.

The Reason Why I Choose Nuffnang?

Google AdSense vs Bidvertiser

There are 2 Pay Per Click Advertising programs often go head to head Google AdSense vs Bidvertiser in a battle for the winner. Most of the people sure know about Google Adsense, it’s the block of ads and very popular on all types of websites over the Internet.

Both have a good anti-click fraud system to ensure that the publisher and advertiser are safe by detecting IP address and blocking too many clicks from one IP.

Why I Quit Bidvertiser?

After 7 months using Bidvertiser program, finally I’ve make decision to quit and now Google AdSense is my first choice.

Many people believe that Bidvertiser is the new contender looking to overthrow Google AdSense as number one advertiser. But, I have different saying here, the things that makes me feel unsatisfied about Bidvertiser are the relevancy of advertising, slower loading scripts and lack of advertisers.

In the other words, Google AdSense ads are based on the content of your site, so if your site has a rich content basically it would generate relevant ads.

In addition, I personally feel that Google AdSense control panel is more user friendly since it uses easy to understand wording. And, creating an ad unit involves fewer steps and it’s in sequential process.

Good Points of Bidvertiser
