My PIP Has Arrived!

Time to do a happy dance!



So my "payment in progress" has arrived for the month of November 2009!

There's a rumor going around that Adsense wanted to get the "PIP" 's into peoples' accounts so that they could have money to spend by Black Friday!

There Has Been A Payment In Progress Sighting!

I can't believe it!

There has been a "payment in progress" posting by actually 2 people who have posted that they had gotten their "PIP" line yesterday - Friday! I was really shocked to see this because the "payment in progress" lines usually don't show this early in the month. However this does look to be one of those "short" months with the week of the month having only 2 days!

So one person that posted didn't post their location so I don't know if they live inside or outside the United States.

The other person that posted lives in the US Midwest - however I don't know if they get their Adsense payment by check or by bank transfer.

So be on the lookout on Monday to see if your "payment in progress" line is showing in your Adsense account!

The Payment In Progress Process Has Begun!

How do I know this? Because when I checked into my Adsense account today that familiar message box was showing:



This means that at least the "payment in progress" (PIP) process has begun for this month of November 2009.

Now I did some comparisons with months that had a similar date format to this month and it seems that the "PIP" showed up a lttle bit more early than the 25th of the month. Unfortunately though just because it has done that in the past doesn't mean that it will automatically happen again this month - so I'm just crossing my fingers and hoping for the best!

A Pleasant (And Profitable) Surprise!

I have been doing some experimenting with my high-paying keywords list and went to check my Adsense numbers today and got a very pleasant surprise!





Usually at around this time of the month I am trying to get at least to the half-way point - meaning earning at least $50 - so that I still have the rest of the month to earn the minimum $100 needed in order to get an Adsense payment the next month!

Well like I said I am doing some experimenting with my own high-paying keyword list just to keep myself updated on what the highest-paying keywords are. I have used some of these high-paying keywords on both my and my clients' blogs just to see if it was possible to earn even more than the average for this time of the month!

I checked my own numbers and I am definitely past the half way mark! In fact I have earned over the minimum amount needed to get an Adsense payment for next month - and I still have the rest of the month to go!

Well you know what this means don't you? I'm off to put more higher-paying keywords in my blog posts! Maybe I could even double my current earnings before the month is out and use that money for more Christmas presents!

Well The "Payment In Progress" Process Has Begun!

Well it looks as though the "PIP" (payment in progress) process has finally begun!

A lot of us Adsense publishers were getting worried because its so late in the month! An actual thread was started because the Adsense "payment in progress" line wasn't showing up. But now I'm happy to say that it has shown up now!

I Made It Past The $100 Mark!

Well tonight is just getting better and better!

As you can see, I made it slightly past the half-way mark. That means that I will be getting an Adsense payment next month.

You can probably also see that my numbers are quite low - although I am proud of the cpm earnings that I am getting! There have even been a few times when I have gotten $1 per click! I have been working on using some of the more higher-paying keywords that are in my higher-paying keywords listing and it looks like that is paying off!

"You Are Scheduled To Be Sent A Payment This Month......."

Well I saw this message on my Adsense account page today and that means that the payment process has begun!

According to past months with the same kind of date format it looks as though I won't be seeing a "payment in progress" until Monday which will be the 26th of the month.


Now this doesn't have to be written in stone (actually I'm hoping that I will get my "PIP" much, much earlier than that!

(Remember the average estimated date that the "payment in progress" line shows up is on the 25th of the month and unfortunately the 25th of October 2009 falls on a Sunday!)

I'm A Little Past The Halfway Mark For This Month - So Far!

Well as you can see I have made it slightly past the $50 halfway mark. This means that I still have the rest of the month of October to earn at least $50 more in order t meet the $100 minimum needed to get an Adsense payment for next month!

So far I have managed to get an Adsense check every month this year (as you can probably tell from my previous blog posts )

It's really ironic because I was looking at my Adsense numbers over the weekend and was feeling kind of low. But for some unknown reason my Adsense earnings took quite a jump from the weekend!

I have to say that my click-thru-rate is kind of disappointing (but it will just be that much more fun to increase that again) but my ecpm numbers look good though!

Adsense Will Be Down For Maintenance This Saturday!

Again, the Adsense site will be down for maintenance this Saturday.

Here is what is on the Adsense site page:

On 10/10/09, our engineers will be performing site maintenance from approximately 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM PDT.

Payment In Progress! September 2009!

As you can see, I got my "PIP" line!


This means that the "payment in progress" process has begun for September 2009!

Usually I report about seeing a "PIP" sighting BUT I saw the "payment in progress" line in my own Adsense account before I started looking for "payment in progress" sightings.

If you read my previous blog post you will see that I made an estimate (based on a past month with the same date format) that the "PIP" line would show up on the 23rd - which was yesterday. I'm looking at that past month and it seems that there is one more day in that month. Could that be why the "payment in progress" line appeared a day later than I calculated?

As you can see I'm still trying to figure out the "payment in progress" process - but so far I haven't figured it out yet.

"Payment In Progress" - Just In Case You Are Wondering........

There haven't been any "PIP" sightings yet for this month of September 2009!


It still may be a little early in the "payment in progress" game because today is the 23rd! According to my obsessive calculations of a past month that has the same date format as September 2009 there was a "PIP" on the 23rd of the month.

This is the 23rd of the month so that just means that you can't really rely on past months that have the same kind of date format.

There hasn't been anyone reporting any signs of a "payment in progress" note on their Adsense account as of yet............

But I will keep my eyes open for that first sighting!

You Are Scheduled To Be Sent A Payment..........

Well this finally turned up in my Adsense account today! What this means is that the payment process has begun - although technically I thought it would begin on the 16th of the month which is the day AFTER all holds have to be checked / verified.

I am a little concerned because this message is appearing quite later than usual - I seem to remember on average it showing up on the 19th - average-wise.

However to make this even more complicated, I did some checking and I looked for a similar month in the past that has the same date format as this month - September 2009.

I found a similar month and noted that the "payment in progress" line appeared on the 23rd of the month which is tomorrow!

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

I Made It Past The $100 Mark!

Well as you can see I just barely made it past the $100 mark for this month. That means that I will be getting an Adsense payment next month (I'm still waiting for my Adsense payment for this month! - LOL!

For any of you that are making less than this per month I hope that this information helps you! There are people who are making a lot with Adsense and then again there are those who have voted in the poll saying that they have made less than $10 a month with Adsense. For you - I say that those numbers can be improved! You just have to learn how to optimize your site more to get more of an Adsense income!

I Made It Past The Halfway Mark!

Well as you can see, I made it past the halfway mark! What this means is that I have earned at least half of the amount that is required to get an Adsense payment for next month. Just in case you didn't know you have to earn at least $100 during the month before Adsense will send you a payment.

This means that I still have the rest of the month to go to earn at least $50 more!

As you can see from the screenshot my Adsense numbers are going up and down all over the place which means its hard to say what is "average".

So look at my numbers and compare them to your own whether your numbers are higher or lower.

The Adsense Site Will Be Down For Maintenance Today!

This upcoming Saturday, the Adsense site will be down for maintenance from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM PDT.

So for about 4 hours on Saturday the adsense site will be down.

During these maintenance schedules Adsense assures its publishers that while they are still earning their adsense money, they will not be able to check their adsense account(s) while the Adsense site is down.

Adsense Has A Facebook Site!

Just in case you're curious or are already a Facebook member, Adsense has its own Facebook site as well!

GoogleAdsense's Facebook Page!

My PIP Has Arrived!

As you can see, my "PIP" / "payment in progress" has finally arrived today!

Kind of odd too (although its greatly welcomed!) because I checked my Adsense numbers earlier today and was disappointed not to see my "PIP" line. So I thought that I would head over to the discussion boards to see what other people were saying and what I found out was that only so far those who were getting paid by regular check were getting their "payment in progress" lines. Another person posted said that they 'spect it would come on Wednesday - since they were a "senior" member I kind of resolved myself to the fact that maybe they were right and I resigned myself to thinking that I wouldn't get my "PIP" until Wednesday - thus not getting able to spend the money until Thursday (unless one knows Rose's secret for being able to spend her Adsense money earlier!

Being the obsessive person that I am, I decided to check my Adsense numbers a few hours later and guess what! - my "payment in progress" line is there!

Just goes to show you that sometimes even the "experts" or "seniors" can be wrong!

"You Are Scheduled To Be Sent A Payment This Month......."

Well this showed up in my Adsense account today and it means of course that the "payment in progress" process has begun! It doesn't mean that the "PIP" has showed up in my Adsense account yet - it just means that I am scheduled to be sent a payment this month and it is being acknowledged in my Adsense account!

August 2009 is a funnily formatted month! I highly doubt that I will be seeing a "payment in progress" line before this weekend! Since the average "PIP" date is around the 25th of the month, we'll just have to wait until next week to see that "payment in progress" line.
