After 3 years and 7 months (from my old blog to this one), I’ve finally collected a little more than USD100 from Google Adsense. Yeah it sure took a long time. And judging from this speed, it’ll be another 3 years before I get my second payment. 
I picked up my Adsense payment from Western Union at RHB. I requested the ‘receive money’ form but didn’t quite understand how to fill Google’s full address in the form. As far as I know we must remember the following details when we go pick up our payment.
1. Amount of the payment
2. MTCN
3. ID (in this case our IC)
4. Google’s info
I didn’t fill Google’s address wholly, just the state, postcode and country. And still it’s no problem. Hehe! Collected my RM in less than 5 minutes. Cool! Although it’s not much still I’m happy happy happy

CC, I put the code in the comments.php file
Bryan, hopefully. I will!
Yozoranitesky, you have a good food blog. A niche blog will get better adsense click & impression. If the type of ad unit didn’t bring in much money, you can try changing to another type of ad unit.
Xin, yeah better than nothing. That’s why I’m happy.
Dawn, I’ll save it. hehe
Wuching, yalor. Blood money weh…
Neo, you don’t bluff weh. You cash in every month punya.

Haha, you know what, I baru got mine also. First timer as well. You might want to consider putting the ads in between posts. My adsense is already more than USD50 (after this month cash out) after I changed the placement.

Hcfoo, teach me how…please please… commented in your post about this. You’re getting $$ fast because you’ve change your blog to a tennis blog (niche).

Che-Cheh, yeah after changing to tennis blog, I have higher unique visitors and click on adsense liao. But the placement and type of ad unit used also important. I have more clicks with the current one. Everyday got money coming in. For one page I can only have a max of 3 posts. If not sure got banyak tempat kosong like what u meantioned in my blog. For me, it’s something like this: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/09/22/how-to-wrap-adsense-ads-around-and-inline-beside-blogger-post-content/ Here’s other readings for wordpress. http://www.5xmom.com/how-i-dramatically-increase-my-daily-google-adsense-income/ http://www.whydowork.com/blog/whydowork-adsense-plugin/
