After around 18 months of blogging, I think this is the time for me to cash out some money from my Adsense to make other investment. In fact, this is my first payment. Therefore, as a record for future cash out, I would like to jot down the procedure I have taken to make a payment from Google Adsense account in this post. This post shows a step-by-step procedure I took to cash out my Google Adsense revenue.
-------------------------------
Part 1: Cash out from Adsense Account
1. Login your Google Adsense Account
2. Remove a hold in self-hold option, if any.
3. Submit tax information.
4. Select Payment method.
In this case, I used Western Union Quick Cash instead of Standard Cheque, which requires 2 to 3 weeks for delivery, and Secured Express Delivery, which takes 1 week but with 24USD processing fee.
Western Union Quick Cash, in fact, will be available the day after the payment date. Besides, the bank fees and long clearing times associated with depositing checks can be cut down by using this option too. Last but not least, it is worth noting that AdSense does not charge any fee at the moment for the payment option of Western Union Quick Cash. However, only individual publisher can use this payment option.
5. Before confirm your payment option, don't forget to double check the payee name.
-------------------------------
Part 2: Take your cash now
1. After one day of the payment date (15th of every month) you can go to local Western Union agency to pick up your money. In my case, the payment is only available on 26th, actually. Nevertheless, it is still faster and cheaper than other payment options.
2. To determine nearest Western Union agency, you can check it through its official website of http://www.payment-solutions.com/agent.asp
3. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID (e.g. National DI, Passport, or Driver's license) to verify your identity. Sometimes, it requires a duplicated copy of the ID. So, do bring it along.
4. Don't forget to jot down the following information, which can be found in your Adsense account, for the sake of verification.
i. Sender's information
(Can be found at the 'details' link on the payment line of the Payments page)
ii. Amount of payment
(Can be found at the Payment History page)
iii. Unique MTCN (Money Transfer Control Number)
(Can be found at the 'details' link next to the Payment Issued line on the Payment History page)
Lastly, you may be asked to fill in a form of "Western Union - Money Transfer" in the local Western Union agency. That's all for today.

Monetize Review: Google Adsense is my Final Choise in Blogger
After canceled my entrecard account and follow by quited Adgitize program in the last monetize review, finally, I believe this is the time for me to stop CMF ads. There are three reasons for me to remove CMF ads in my blog.
1. The Google Adsense Revenue is Superior than CMF ads.
Why, I don't know. But what I know is the revenue of Google Adsense is more than 500% of the revenue from CMF ads in last six months. For example, when the revenue of Adsense reach around $20, the revenue of CMF in my blog reach only $3.
2. To Increase Page Loading Speed
Of course, the less applications plug-in in one blog, the faster the loading speed of the blog. Besides, faster loading speed will make visitors more comfortable and good impression in ones blog.
3. I have no idea how to increase the revenue of CMF
Google Adsense actually works very simple for me. Sharing a thought, produce original posts, update frequency etc. In short, just do what I am and what I like. The thing is I can learn something and help other via blogging. CMF, on the other hand, provides random advertisement to me via its network advertisement.
Lastly, from what I had experienced after spend lots of time in trying different monetize providers, my point of view is, always look at what advertisement provider for famous website like BBC and National Geographic, and then do what they have done. That's all for today. Feel free to give me a comment about this topic or any suggestion about Xaivier Blog. It will be a great support to Xaivier Blog.

Monetize review: Google Adsense, Adgitize blogger, and CMF ads
This is a new monetize review after the previous review about Google Adsense, Entrecard, Adgitize blogger, or CMF ads.
First of all, let's talk about the performance of this blog. After doing some SEO in XaivierBlog and quit the Entrecard program three months ago, one of the biggest changing is the percentage of traffic sources, which is shown in the chart below by using Google Analytics tool. Personally, I am quite satisfied with the 71.43% traffic from Search Engines.
Although the webpage loading speed is better after removed Entrecard, in order to increase the Google Rank, the webpage loading speed is needed to be improved. This is because webpage loading speed is one of the criteria in evaluating of Google Rank.
As a result, I have decided to quit Adgitize program. The main reason for me to make this decision is it does work well to me during last few months. After doing some research, I found most of the publishers have same experiences as I. But for the bloggers who are both publisher and advertiser in Adgitize program seem very satisfy with this program. As you can see, the average traffic to this blog is around 40 visitors per day according to Google Analysis Tool. But Adgitize only give me 5 or 10 points per day for advertisement view and page views.
I don't know what is wrong with them to treat publisher like me. Besides, I have found the my revenue is decreased to 1 cent from 2 cents per day with total points more than 120 per day. (During last few months, I always received 2 cents per day if total points is more than 120 per day)
Although I have reached more than one dollar now in Adgitize program during last four months, to reach the minimum cash out, $10, I think it will cause me few years!!! Besides, the banner from Adgitize is going to slow down my web page loading.
CMF ads, on the other hand, treat fairly to both publishers and advertisers as the change of policy as shown below:
As you can see, original rate is going to discourage members to cashout their earning. But thanks for understanding of CMF, they start reducing the cashout tax from 50% to 10% in about six months.
Finally, Google Adsense still the main stream income in this blog. Why? I don't know. I just feel very comfortable with Google Adsense. Besides, Google Adsense also give me highest revenue compared with other monetize program, so far.

| Date of change | Cashout tax | Advert tax | |
| (Original rates) | 50% | 0% | |
| March 2010 | 40% | 2.5% | |
| May 2010 | 30% | 5% | |
| July 2010 | 20% | 7.5% | |
| September 2010 | 10% | 10% |

Monetize review: Google Adsense, Entrecard, Adgitize blogger, or CMF ads
or 
or CMF AdsThis post is for bloggers who wish to increase their site traffic, earn more money, or looking for more information about Entrecard, Adgitize blogger, and CMF. However, if be aware, they might against Google Adsense TOS and policy.
According to my knowledge that all of them should not against Google Adsense Term and Conditions for publishers. If somebody here has updated information, it will be very nice to share here via comment box below. Some comparison between these services are shown below.
| Service | Entrecard | Adgitize Me | CMF Ads |
| Monetize | - No | - Yes | - Yes |
| What you need to do | - Need to visit members's site to earn drop credits | - concentrate to post new things in your blog - visit community ads | - Set your price to suit advertisers' budget |
| Traffic increasing | - High - Because members need to drop other members' site to earn credits | - High | - Depend on where you advertise and the design of your banner - using spikes program to bring 50 unique traffic via $0.20 |
| Advantage | - Not need any cost - Immediately traffic for active members - User friendly environment | - Automatically bring advertisement to blog - Good reputation so far in internal - $10 for PayPal transactions(can be considered low) - many features which are provided - no need to take care, just concentrate on your blog development - You are rewarded points: - every time you write an article on your blog - when you click on ads for other members within the community. - for any visits to your web site or blog. - any time someone clicks a member ad on your blog. - No fault click | - Can set your own price - You can earn as many as you can with one or more slots - $1 minimum cashout - forum is available for members to share experiences - User friendly environment |
| Disadvatage | - No earning - only one slot can put in your sites - increase site bounce rate | - Not very user friendly environment(due to many features which are provided) - $50 for payment by check transactions | - You many - Only can play all slots in one place - Need to adjust your price from time to time if necessary |
After a brief comparison as above, now, let's talk about Google Adsense. Due to the policy of Google Adsense which I have gone through it again this morning...
Therefore, I have decided to cancel my entrecard because:
1. Entrecard is considered as traffic exchange program and against Google Adsense policy.
2. Entrecard make me so hard to determine my visitors in the long run. The traffic, of course, is increasing. But if you really treat your blog seriously, you should think about future.
3. Entrecard make my website slow down.
Next, both Adgitize Me and CMF Ads are quite similar, so far. Personally, I believe they still comply Google Adsense policy, if and only if, you do not participate what they call pay-per-click program, which is definitely violate Google Adsense TOS. Again, time is needed for me to do more investigation about those providers. I will update it in xaivierchia.blogspot.com soon.
To recap, be aware to what you have been participated and what you want to participate to avoid any unhappy thing happens.
Good luck and have a nice day^^
