It’s been some time since I last wrote something here. Time flies but I totally cannot recall what I did in the past month. Maybe playing a MMPORG (Tibia), going for classes, spending time making my student pass and maybe sleeping. Ok, back to the topic.

I have advertisements above almost every entry on this blog and they’re making money for me every month. I may not receive a cheque every month, but its still sufficient for my hosting fees.

After giving some thought, I’ve decided to use part of my earnings to sponsor a child with World Vision. World Vision will help a child on my behalf. Wonderful, isn’t it?

When?

As soon as I receive my next cheque (should arrive somewhere early September), I will deposit it into my bank account and start doing something!

Future

As soon as I find myself earning more (receiving a bigger cheque amount) from my advertising partners (Currently Google Adsense and Advertlets), I will consider sponsoring more children.

Well, that’s what I foresee.

Updates

I will be posting updates about this under “Sponsor a Child” category. Check back some time soon!

I’m sick of emailing Advertlets (or adding a support ticket) and waiting more than a week for a reply. This is not the way to run business, Josh.

Where is my cheque?

2 months ago or to be exact, on 11th September 2007 (Remember the September 11 bombing?), I checked out an amount of money. Hey, that was my first checkout with Advertlets and I haven’t got it yet. It’s been more than 70 days. Seriously, I don’t think Advertlets has that many clients that checkout monthly that my cheque cannot be processed in time. Compare with Google’s Adsense? Does that explain why Adsense is doing so well?

Server downtime/Lag!

I noticed that almost everyday Advertlets’ server is lagging and causing my page to load slowly. Worse of all, when the server is down, my ads don’t get loaded and my page remains dead. Fine. I’ll just accept this quietly.

I saw a bug!

Is that a bug? Why did today appear twice? (Figured censored as respect to Advertlets)

Dear Advertlets

Please do something about this. I’m sure there are others who will give you the support to improve!

Have you encountered any problems with Advertlets that you’ll like to share with me? Bug for you too? Yet to receive your cash-out?

P.S I’m still using and supporting Advertlets!

While surfing online, I discovered that Nuffnang now has a new design and according to some bloggers, Nuffnang is working hard to produce results for bloggers.

I tried Nuffnang 3 months ago and I was totally disappointed with the results. Sad to say, I was offered RM$0.50 for 7 days of Allyhunt Global Skyscraper placement on my blog. I remember I had around 200 visitors and it was totally peanuts; not even enough for my web hosting, not to mention any VPS.

I will give Nuffnang another try. Yes, this time for 1 month. Next month if it doesn’t produce results, it’ll be down until I foresee changes. =)
