I just recently added google adsense to my website. I'm glad I did
too! I'm making quite a bit more from google adsense than I was
using fastclick.com banners.
After adding google adsense, I was doing pretty good, however, I
figured I could be doing better. So, I looked up some google adsense
tips sites, took their advice, applied it to my site, and boy, it
worked! I'm doing better now because of it!

But I do have a couple of questions. Firstly, I am real new to google
adsense. And they say something like, if I am just starting out, I
have to wait for a pin# to be mailed to me, and then after receiving
the pin#, I have to input that pin# into the google adsense website in
order to get paid. Has anyone gone through this? How long do you
normally have to wait for the pin# to be mailed to you? And, after
inserting the pin# into the google adsense website, do they start
paying you what they owe you straight away?

Secondly, I have been to a few google adsense websites. But, do any of
you have any other suggestions on where I can go for google adsense
tips? such as sites, discussion groups and the like?

Whatever info and advice you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
