			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve read posts from some people claiming to have quit their day job as a result of enormous adsense earnings.  A lot of people inflate their max bench press by at least 25% as well.  For that matter, people exaggerate about all sorts of things.  Human nature is to exaggerate &#8211; to make ourselves seem better than we really are.  </p>
<p>In my opinion, not many people quit their day job as a result of huge adsense profits because their day job is running websites to begin with.  In other words, if you are making beaucoup adsense bucks, it&#8217;s because your main job is running websites.  In my opinion, there are very few people who can hold down a 9 to 5 and somehow find the time to make one or more websites profitable enough to later quit that 9 to 5&#8242;er &#8211; unless you&#8217;re making $8 an hour at McDonald&#8217;s.  You might be able to leave that job behind.<br />
<span id="more-126"></span><br />
I&#8217;ve always said that adsense is only part of the formula to internet financial success.  A multi-pronged financial attack is the plan to follow.  A buddy and I jokingly refer to adsense as adcents or adpennies.  When you first start out trying to turn the adsense buck, it can seem like adpennies.  And friends may laugh at your $2-3 a day earnings.  But $3 a day is still over a grand a year and close to a check a month from google.  If you want to quit your day job, you better be thinking about a couple hundie a day.  </p>
<p>Without further ado, here are my rules for adsense success:</p>
<p>1 &#8211; Don&#8217;t make adsense the sole income source for your websites.</p>
<p>2 &#8211; You&#8217;ll notice I said websites (plural) &#8211; I feel that you need to diversify with several websites if you want to turn the adsense buck unless you started a website a decade or so ago and already have a ton of traffic.</p>
<p>3 &#8211; Don&#8217;t overdo it though &#8211; stretch yourself too thin and you&#8217;ll only hurt your earnings.</p>
<p>4 &#8211; This is the number one rule &#8211; TRAFFIC!  If you want to make a lot of money with adsense, you&#8217;ll need a lot of traffic.  Hey, in most instances, you&#8217;re only getting pennies a click.  You&#8217;re going to need several hundred to a thousand clicks to pull home the big adsense bucks.</p>
<p>5 &#8211; Don&#8217;t quit your day job even if you are pulling home some serious adsense coin.  Adsense earnings can fluctuate dramatically with the prevailing internet weather.  If you do quit your day job, then have other income generating sources on line.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll focus on more detailed adsense earnings tips in my next post.      </p>

<span id="more-84"></span></p>
<p>From: <strong>OSUTEAM </strong> <em>from OSUTEAM with a chartermi.net account &#8211; first clue that there&#8217;s a problem</em><br />

To: Undisclosed recipients: ;<br />
Subject: <strong>VERIFY YOUR OSU  EMAIL NOW</strong> <em>any attempt to &#8220;verify&#8221; is generally bad news</em><br />
Reply-To: <strong>upgradeservice@live.com</strong> <em>Reply to a different email address?  Alarms are sounding!</em></p>
<p><strong>Dear OSU Email  Owner</strong>, <em>Big tipoff here.  Should be personalized.</em></p>
<p>This message is from OSU messaging center to all OSU emailEmail owners. We are currently upgrading our data base and e-mail  center. We are deleting all unused OSUemail to create more space for new one. To prevent your account from closing you will have to update it below  so that we will know that it&#8217;s a present used account.</p>
<p><em>I would think that The Ohio State University would refer to itself as such and not as &#8220;OSU.&#8221;  How about &#8220;emailEmail owners&#8221; or &#8220;present used account&#8221; &#8211; spelling and grammatical mistakes indicate that this is coming from a foreigner.  OSU&#8217;s &#8220;email center&#8221; would be the first one to evaluate whether your account is being used or not &#8211; no verification required.</em></p>
<p>CONFIRM YOUR EMAIL BELOW<br />
EMAIL USERNAME :<br />
EMAIL PASSWORD :<br />
CONFIRM EMAIL PASSWORD:<br />
YOUR FIRST / LAST NAME:<br />
<strong>DATH OF BIRTH : </strong><br />
COUNTRY OR TERRITORY :</p>
<p>Warning!!! Email owner that refuses to update his or her Email,within Seven days of receiving this warning will lose his or her Email  permanently.</p>
<p><em>Look for capitalization issues as well &#8211; also indicates that this is a foreigner trying to hijack your email account.</em></p>
<p>Thanks,<br />
OSUTEAM<br />
OSU</p>
<p><em>OSUTEAM &#8211; who at Ohio State refers to themselves as the &#8220;OSUTEAM?&#8221;  This email is outright fraud.  Look for the warning signs and don&#8217;t respond to any email that asks for your password</em></p>
