One day when I was browsing the net, saw this ad for theadsensejerk.com :
$3000 a week in Adsense I’ll teach you for free
Being curios that I am, I click on the ad to see what this guy has to offer.
It welcomes me with the standard “From Rags to Rich” talk that always accompany sites promising quick returns. Not bad for a start. There is even “Live Chat with Adsense Jerk” here. Wow ! And a link to “Most Talked About Membership Opportunity.”
Then there is this Yoga master waving at you. Say hi !
Oh, then you can give money via paypal to this rich guy to buy some drink. Because he is too rich to afford some beer?
Now, here is the fun part. He go to great length to show how rich he is by putting screenshot of his earning. Oh, wow ! Too bad the all dollars are covered. Hmm…

You see that “CLASSIFIED INFORMATION” and “GOOGLE SAYS NO TO SHOWING MY MASIVE EARNINGS!” ? Please do me a favour now. Follow me. Say “Yeah, rite!“.
You did that? Good. As matter of fact, it is in Google Adsense TOS not to show your earning related to particular site. But:
- It has nothing to do with whether your income is MASIVE or MISERABLE. You might be earning thousands a day or fifty bucks a year, the same policy applies.
- You CAN tell people how much YOU earn from adsense, just not to say which WEBSITE.
Oh, and while we are at this. Did you see line at the screen shot, from “Page Impressions ” down the purple box. That will be this jerk’s page impressions per day. Seems to me that the page impression range from 1 digit to 2 digits. More than that would have got overflown from the purple “MASIVE INCOME” box.
I am not sure how much his “MASIVE INCOME” is. But if it is enough to pay 2 mortgages, bought three boats and two Porsches, it has to be really massive (with double the s, please).
Let’s do some basic math here. Adsense click is worth from 10 cents to 5 dollars per click. Average CTR (clickthrough rate - how many click you get for a number displayed pages) is about 5%.
If he gets into very high paying 5-dollar-a-click niche (which by the way, is extremely rare and highly competitive), assume his page impression is 99 (the highest of 2-digit number), and his CTR is 50% (which is extremely high and most likely would result in your adsense account being closed by google), he would make of with 7500 a month. That is good sum of money, but too bad, not enough for 2 mortgages, 2 Porches, and 3 boats.
But, he said that is only the least profitable out of his MANY Accounts, you say. Well, I want you to do me one more favour. Follow me. Say, “Yeah, rite!”
You did that? Good boy. Because I’m going to tell you something now. And you’ll realise that this is the very reason I’m writing this article.
Are you following me? OK. Say “I can only have one Adsense account throughout my life.” Yup. That’s right. It is in Google Adsense Term and Condition, point (1), last sentence.
Multiple accounts held by the same individual or entity are subject to immediate termination unless expressly authorized in writing by Google (including by electronic mail).
So now, it is either cheating adsense, or cheating you. Either way, I don’t see any reason for getting his “Free Lessons”.
Well. Enough said, you can visit his site at http://theadsensejerk.com/ and maybe you can discover some more of the jerkness.
