It has been around Christmas time that I requested my first pin. I finally managed to make a website that now made me $ 1000 in 2 months. But where is my Pin? Yes I read it takes long sometimes. The first pin was send out 19th December. I requested a new Pin January 18th. We live overseas and our mail is delivered through APO - Army Postal Service. We have no problems receiving mail, if its ebay amazon or whatever. I'm getting kind of worried that I will never recieve my pin. I wrote to Adsense Support but yet no reply. On 18th February it will be weeks for the second PIN as well. I guess I'm just looking for some people that waited longer then 8 weeks for their pin? What if I don't receive any of my PIN's? My money will be gone with the wind? It's just so depressing..especially if you have a $ 1000 there waiting . The Bankaccount verified within 3 days or so... A depressed Adsense Publisher
Its not uncommon for the pin to take over a month to arrive for overseas people. I cant really remember how long mine took but it was over a month for sure. Email google a couple of times if you want a response.
Yes, 4 weeks is fine but it has been 8 weeks for the first and already 4 weeks for the second PIN. I did email Support several times, it's so frustrating..
I received my pin under 4 weeks. However, I am no way close to you a million light years in case of money you made at adsense within 2 months. You must have worked very hard. Email google and let them know your problem.
Yes I will email support some more. One email a day . LOL Oh yes, I work very hard on my site. I run a blog and I update it 4-6 times a day. I used to have a Tech Blog which made me exactly $ 22.98 in one year. This was so frustrating that I finally gave up on this blog. I can't recall how many nights on coffee and ciggarettes I smoked searching the web for a way to make money , SEO ,Adsense ,Articles, Niche you name it. Still nobody wanted to read my freakin' Blog.. It was one evening that I stumbled accross a post were the guy said he made $ 1000 from Adsense in one month. I checked out the website and there it was , My Niche..I would have never thought of it. So here I go, I bought a new domain , set up my wordpress and started posting and to my surprise I started to make 3 $ a day the first couple days. then I made $ 10 and my traffic just started to come in. It just keeps moving up from there. So finally I have made it.. My Alexa Traffic Rank went from nothing to 118.715 . In 2 months.. Now if I could only get THIS PIN..I would be very happy. Oh and if you would like to check the site out here it is, and don't be surprised : Sujet
Wow, just wow. Your story is exactly like mine, except I'm in the states. I've been waiting over a month for my PIN. I have earned ~900 in the last two months, and I'm very worried the PIN will never arrive. *Sigh*
your home page google rank is 6 !!! how did you manage to do that in two months? - if you can share that
I was just like you.. It took like 2 months to get my Pin. Don't worry Google will sort it out if you didn't get it, it's not the end of the world
Dont get depress, you can request PIN 3 times and if you don't get it on last attempt, google will arrange some other way to verify your address like sending PIN via DHL for some $$ After you are verified, you can easily get checks via DHL for $25 fee in just 3-4 days of issue or use EFT option if it is available in your country.
I've got mine like within 3 weeks. There was a stamp on it saying "Priority AirMail U.S POSTAGE PAID JAMAICA N.Y." or something like that. I don't know what kind of priority airmail it was, I never waited for anything that long from United States even if send via normal mail. Saying honestly after two weeks I was wondering if they were sending it using naval transport ships . But I've received it finally.
Hi Holy, Actually I have no idea. Every time I make a post I will bookmark it on delicious etc. . I also ping my site on autopinger.com once a day. I got lucky to be No.1 Technorati Search for some posts and Google had me on page 1 for the Michelle Manhart (Playboy) Pictures. Other then that I was listed on Fark's main page twice. Not sure if this helped me gain a Rank 6. I believe its the regular updates on the blog and content. Backlinks from other sites I actually don't have to many.. Thanks for the replies regarding the pin, I do hope it will be here soon...
I think you should ask them to resend the PIN. It might have got lost in the post or something. By the way, excellent earnings for just two months.
Wow, I received my pin..YAY There I go and complain and there it was in my mail TODAY ..It doesnt have a stamp on it so not sure which one it is. But I got it ! SO HAPPY..I will go crack me a beer right now! BTW Thanks Gwest
Oh yeah, finally even Adsense Support replied, it must be my lucky day! Hi Lashon, Viewing your account details, I've found that your PIN has been entered correctly. Your account is now eligible to receive payments and you won't be required to enter another PIN for this account in the future. Thanks for your cooperation. Sincerely, Sean The Google AdSense Team
