8 months - those cents finally turned into the big payout!!
So I guess I'll be getting a check next month?
Merry Christmas to me!!!
Actually, if you check Adsense, they tell you they'll pay at the end of NEXT month, so you will get the check some time in January. Just in time to pay the Christmas credit card bill!
Thanks Marisa- but I don't use credit cards anymore- thank God! My first check is going to go back into my writing- I'm going to start a website- I'm just working on the what and how right now!
Thanks!
Let me know if you need any help, Godaddy domains are 9.99 right now but if you use the coupon code "Chill3" (no quotes, and it never expires, I have used it 20 times this month!) it knocks it down to 7.49
Hosting at gatorhost is pretty good... 15.00 a month unlimited space, bandwidth, and alot of useful features (just about everything possible).
I use cleverdot.com to host all my sites. $3.95 month to month, or only $24.95 a year. They offer all the extras all the big boys do. They also have great customer service. The bandwidth does have a limit but even with hundreds of pages I have never come close to maxing it out.
When your ready for a name, let me know, I create them for a hobby. No charge LOL.
That is an excellant deal (24.00 a year), for my uses however I will be using ALOT of bandwidth and thousands of pages so I need both unlimited BW and DS, I also use gator because when it comes time to sell my site (I only hold on to them for 3 months with the exception of 5 or so I keep) they make it incredibly easy (for the company I use) same deal with godaddy, all about buying/selling sites but for the person just putting up a site, a blog site, whatever, I would go with your suggestion as this is perfect, mine may be too much juice (and a more money.. about 100 a year ish)

Just got mine in the mail today seems citibank is their bank
Congratulations! I wonder what those 10,000.00 adsense checks will look like (just a few more zero's right?)

Great job, Dorsi!
Best of luck to you and your continued success!

good job it's a long way to go for me though, only had a few dollars.i'm not complaining.i know ill get there someday
Congrats, Dorsi! And once the first check rolls in, they start coming a lot faster.
This is truly face breaking news. Roger wonders if he could also experience such a sucess. He has legal bills to pay. (Face breaking doesn't come cheap.)
(Third person speech makes me the face breaking king.)
Actually Dorsi, when you reach plus 10k you will get your cheque Fed Ex'd to you. The courier knocks at your door and delivers it in a beautiful coloured satchel. All very fandangle it is. Get the camera ready when this happens...
After that, just get the money electronically funds transferred. Much quicker.
By the way, congrats to you and hope you have many many more.
Congratulations Dorsi - hard work and good writing really do pay off.
Congrats!!! I have to wait for another 8 months to get my first one
Thanks everybody- it is so exciting!! And I notice my Kontera is ramping up too!! yeah!!!
Hopefully, I will be celebrating like you in the future! I just joined HubPages 3 hours ago. I have a loooooooooooong wait before receiving my first check. Enjoy!

I need to find out how to optimize and make the most out of my hubs. With Kontera, do I need to sign up as well?

Short Pat Pat on the back, now for all you big money ad-sense guys and gals, I have analyzed my traffic and the convergence of 200/400/1 seems to be a tipping point in the acceleration of earnings, since I hit 200/400 mark, I have had some earnings pretty much every day (though not always from...

Just a couple of minutes ago, I got my first Adsense check. I reached the pay out amount last December. It's not much in US dollars - $130 but if you translate it to local currency, that's equivalent to a one - month minimum salary / wage here! So I'm celebrating, and it's a wonderful post -...

Today, I just received my first Google Adsense check. I was a bit surprised cause it said I would get it on the 30th. Glad I got it today. I am getting close to payment this month too. Hopefully I do not miss payment by a few dollars.

Yesterday I checked my Adsense earnings and it was ZERO... I got so depressed my son told me "Mom, will you knock it off! It's not the end of the world!" and today... today I got $0.40. Yippee!It might just be 40 cents to you, but for me it is my very first earnings and this...
