man.. you just have to tell her that you are not some kind of jerk who is googling on "how to make money online" or building the Tree Scam thingey** just tell her that you are a google publisher.. easier
I am still waiting for my first cheque. And i have made ALL my links blue and I've started serving up some pretty good referral ads too.
It's amazing and happy. for my experiences, when i received first check, I am amazing for earn money for internet and google. but for now, I am less amazing but i am always happy got check!
