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!
