I couldn't believe it when I got my very first adsense check! I mean I had tried all types of internet things to make money before and they never worked to my satisfaction! As a matter of fact I was quite skeptical about the adsense program myself - I mean how could you actually make money from home using the internet - and legitimately at that?

So I joined the adsense program very nervously at first! I mean after all they do ask you for a lot of information - including your social security number!

Once my site was approved I went through the process of picking the type of layout that I wanted for my ads, got the ad coding and added it to my site(s). Then I waited! Actually I kept checking my adsense numbers to see how much I had made - and I do mean that I checked it continuously - much more than once a day!

I was getting a small amount of earning and even then that just made me more excited because before this I wasn't earning much of anything! So I watched and watched and continued to work on my sites. The earnings (and my traffic as well) started to grow!

My very first month using the adsense program I made a total of $22. Not enough to get a payment the next month. However the month after that I had made $99 and that was enough for me to get an adsense payment the next month! Eureka! I had found a way to make money online legitimately!

I have since become The Adsense Consultant - mostly because I just can't believe how legitimate the adsense program is. And the fact that I am making money from it (and now have to include my adsense earnings on my income tax return) has made me a definite fan of this program!

Now what I want to say to you is that you should never underestimate where your next financial opportunity will come from! Adsense is one of the most legitimate ways that I know of that allows one to make money online! And the money that I am making from adsense comes from the work that I do to my blogs sitting right in front of my computer - just typing away!

I'm not an adsense millionaire yet but any extra income that one can earn - especially when its done from the home - is a good thing! Who couldn't use a couple of extra dollars per month?
