AdSense Secrets - Should I buy?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by GPS Mapper, Sep 12, 2006.

    Ok, since Joel Comm's e-book is on sale for 24 hours, should I buy it? I've learned a lot about AdSense in the 8 months or so I've been using it. And I know I can learn nearly everything in the book from forums like this. But I don't have time to spend monitoring the forums that much.

    Whadaya think? Should I buy it?

    If you've already been studying up on Adsense for 8 months, there is no point buying Joel's book. His books are geared to the total noob -- folks who can't even spell Adsense yet. I would pass, as you would probably not learn anything in the book to justify the money spent.

    An even cheaper alternative might be his "AdSense Code" book - I bought that after usign AdSense for over 18 months and I sitll got a couple of good tips that have already paid themselves off. I think the book costs like $15 on amazon or there abouts. I never got around to buying his ebook though, so I can't really comment.

    it's depends on you...


    for me, i don't need it. Because there are many free resources (especially on dp) and much worth it.

    If you don't have time monitoring forums it's just a sign that you're lazy and not serious on your adsense campaign.:cool:

    I don't believe books can help you in your adsense campaign. Anyway it's really up to you. Goodluck!

    I guess the best place to get best information about your adsense campaign is DP. Just don't be lazy to explore the forum.

    Lazy? Hmm, I've got a FT day job, five websites that I spend another 40 hours or so on. Guess I better crank up the ol' work ethic! :D

    I do use the forums quite a bit, but I'm running Amazon, Chitika, CJ, AdSense, doing SEO...it's hard to read everything!

    Dude if your earning a real income just shell out the $50 spend a day reading the ebook (or as I suggested earlier the AdSense Code book for $15) you'll probably pick up a hint or two that will end up making you $1,000s anyway. I know I picked up one tip that I hadn't seen anywhere on any forums that I have since applied that has earnt me $10 a day paying off the book within 36 hours.

    I might recommend that you not invest the money if you were some school kid that didn't really have the money - but let's face it. If people can't afford to shell out a few dollars here and there to improve their online practices and skills then this really isn't the game for you, we are talking two digits here - I would be different if it was some $1000 course or something. I know personally I have his AdSense Code book mark and sitting within arms reach of the computer all with a couple of other books I have invested in.

    Too many people think small and are focussed on earning pennies rather than dollars.

    What is there to believe?
    Joel is an expert in Adsense period.

    He doesnt have any secrets, he teaches you the in's and outs of AdSense. That's it. There is nothing to believe.

    Actually, nothing is a secret online. It's just that some people are too lazy to do a simple search.
