    Already emailed the "owner" by the name of CETIN HAKIMOGLU (sounds Turkish) and also emailed ClickBank.

    For some reason, his website, he never mentions his name. Probably unsure about how people would take him. Going by the name of Joel Comm or Richie Stevens sound more appropriate, HAHA

    Always buy eBooks thru ClickBank, some offer up to 90-day return policy... so far I've used in in 9 of 10 cases.

    But the refund, isn't ClickBank need to consult the e-book owner before refunding the e-book?

    Hmm, I seem to be doing quite *OK* with my web articles on AdSense tricks and such. It won't pay my mortgage and I don't really aim for that anyways.

    The thing is, when I spent my time reading Joel Comm's and this *Turkish* guy e-books, 90% of the contents I have seen before on blogs, forums and web articles.

    I thought to myself, why am I doing this? I already have 3 websites and growing. I've known most of the basic things to get AdSense going.

    And I surely have my own tricks and tips that I can put into a website myself. And live on the AdSense of it.

    Although people here are saying this is all available for free, you do have to spend the time looking for it. Then evaluating if the free advice is worth anymore than what you paid for it.

    What a book / guide could offer to make itself worth paying for is time savings and an "authority voice". Collecting even free info takes time and for the inexperienced difficult to separate the good from the bad.

    I would do the tips-and-tricks for free because I adhere to the pre-selling concept. I'd like my visitors to warm up to my contents and gracefully click on my AdSense.

    my44 i thought you were an adsense guru out here having 114 posts ,never thought you would blow away your precious bucks to such tricky scamers! This forum is the best source of info for any newbie as well as matures .Remember this Newtons law of adsense success " making money with adsense is directly proportional to the sum of hard work and experiments

    experiments + hardwork= thousands of $$$ with adsense

    ^^^Please dont mind but i love my english:D

    I'm not saying it doesn't pay anything, but it's not at the high end of the scale when compared to other topics. Generally speaking, techie stuff pays worse that broader consumer stuff. But this is true of most things....

    Not a guru! Just signed up with AdSense in June 2005.

    There's a long story why I bought the $49 thingy. The Joel Comm thingy, the cost was split in half, because a friend of mine bought it and we shared the reading.

    Joel Cumm is worse than the adsensesystem.com guy. Joel rubs his adsense success in yourface. Its like wow you earn a gazzilioon dollars and hold a big check..good for you ...

    Guys who are making real money don't sell ebooks nor do they use adsense. They do deals...think real estate underwriting ipo's ect.

    I wouldn't say his info is a total useless. But a lot of repeated stuff that we all know already. And $97 for that? LOL - I blame my friend who fell into his trap and we ended up $97 shorter.

    You're asking the wrong people. PIONEERGOLD is right about selling sand in the desert, and water to a drowning man...but take that water to a man in the desert, or help a drowning man make it to sandy shores...and you've got a winning business model.

    Business success is all about identifying, and fulfilling your markets need.

    This probably isn't the proper market to test the percieved value of your product - but there is obviously a ripe market of people looking to 'cash in on the revenue machine' and looking for the cheats, short cuts and easy ways to do it.

    Those guys seem to be cut from the same cloth as the MLMers & other 'get rich quick'ers.

    I agree why to pay when it is available for free. I got some ebooks and had given it out.

    I've certainly never thought this was the right market for my own (printed) book, but I was curious to see what you folks here would say. The e-book market is in many ways different from the printed book market. Certainly there's more of a "hard sell" approach to the e-books, and much higher prices. Both of those are primarily due to the affiliate program approach to selling -- price the e-book high enough and your affiliates can make substantial money. I think Joel Comm's book has a 40% payout, for example, which means every person who manages to sell the book gets almost $40 for selling it. (And he'd get about the same amount himself per copy after ClickBank's fees, which is a BIG difference over publishing books the traditional way, let me tell you...) Sell just three copies and the book pays for itself. Affiliate programs certainly manage to get results -- and that's what network marketing or multi-level marketing really is -- but not everyone agrees with their tactics and approaches.

    You should meet Shoemoney.
    he'll tell you how to make tons with adsense.
    My quick tip, make 50 websites on different niches, promote them well to get average traffic. Place adsense code on hotspots. and sit back and relax just see your money tree growing.

    That's funny admans, just got your pm trying to resell an ebook to me for $15. Nice Try :p

    My question for people that buy ebooks, I personally have never, is would you walk into a book store and drop $100 on a book with 20 pages. My guess is no. Even a $50 hard cover book with 100 pages wouldn't be sold. So why does everybody buy such expensive ebooks online?? Boggles my mind.

    Yes, the AdsenseSystem guy gave something like 20-page PDF e-book as well. And the contents seem like were taken from somebody's blog. And I would say, half of the content was from Google's website itself.
