Biggest adsense check i’ve ever seen: 1,631,935.36

Yes, you see it right. It is a real check and i bet it is the biggest adsense check. It belongs to jimKarter.

After some research, I’ve found that most of his earning are from Made-for-Adsense(MFA) sites. The domains are very generic and nothing special. The important part is SEO to get traffic.

very impress.

What do you think?

One of the biggest Adsense check $132,994.97

I always inspired by this photo of the $132,994.97 check which Shoemoney made. This gives me energy to try harder in order to archive a portion of it.

And some of the most FAQ answered:

• 1) How much of the check was profit?At the time my expenses were 1 server @ 299$ per month for hosting. I would say atleast 130k was profit.
• 2) How much of the traffic was pay per click?None of it was pay per click. Back then I did not know anything at all about pay per click.
• 3) Where did all your traffic come from?About 70% of the traffic was direct 15% from search engines and 15% from referrals.
• 4) How much traffic did the site get to get that much money?About 75k uniq per day.
• 5) Why did you get a paper check and not wire?Back then Google did not do wire transfers for amounts of $10,000.00
• 6) Do you think its possible to still earn that kind of revenue? (most often asked question)Yes.
• 7) How long did it take to make revenue?I never tried to make any money the first 1.5 years it was running. I just concentrated on providing a good service. About 2 years after I started the site It started to do good revenue from AdSense.
• 8)  Can you show the full month report from AdSense for that month?

Google PageRank 10 Websites List (Updated April 2008)

Google describes PageRank (PR) as
“PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page’s value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves “important” weigh more heavily and help to make other pages ‘important’.”

Webmasters just dream about getting PageRank 10. Though it is unofficially proved that PageRank has very little effect on SERP, webmasters would do anything to achieve higher PR. There are webmasters or SEO companies who don’t even slightly hesitate to apply Black Hat SEO / spamming for PR even though know they might be blacklisted in Google.

Anyway, here is a list of PageRank 10 websites according to Google PageRank update on April, 2008.

One of the most common asked question is “How can I get quality backlinks?” or “Why I can’t find my backlinks?” etc etc. Anyway, I’ve come across a list of “dofollow” social bookmarking website lists.

It is intended to reduce the effectiveness of certain types of search engine spam, thereby improving the quality of search engine results and preventing spamdexing from occurring in the first place.

Here is the list of “dofollow” social bookmarking websites (updated on 31st May, 2008):
