Secondly, posting my earnings would violate Adsense T&C.
Thirdly, you'd have to be pretty stupid to show the forum your top earning sites. I'd guess your competition increase by an exponential factor pretty much over night.
Welcome to Webmasterworld [webmasterworld.com].
I just slapped it on there and made it a bright construction orange so it would stand out. Also choose the largest box and put it right at the top of your forum pages users love that!
best of all its no work!
Please first read the rules of Adsense and of Webmasterworld. Adsense does not allow you to share details with other people and Webmasterworld doesn't like people posting links to non-authority sites.
However in total (all Adsense earnings over a nine month period - expenses) would equate a steak dinner at a nice restaurant for every day of the year including dessert and drinks.
but i want to ask, how google will know that is my adsense account and if i am sharing information with any one on the internet? by e-mail or by forums?
do they realy have any tools to spy any topics in forums and websites?
i think you are going to tell me about google bot, i think they will get any articles or topics about adsense because the almost have about 70% of the internet websites content,
but the thing that i can't understand is how they will know about my account on adsense if they found this topic in google's archive?
i think we and any one else have the right to know if he/she a member of adsense or not!
please tell me what do you think about this!
but the thing that i can't understand is how they will know about my account on adsense if they found this topic in google's archive?
You shouldn't care about this in the first place IMHO. If you want to use Adsense to get income from your website, just use it and sleep well. If you are posting in a thread about Adsense tricking but you do not implement it on your site, they probably won't care. On the other hand many people are reading WW without ever posting, but they implement all tricks they can find here and on other places. Those are more likely to get banned eventually.
If you play by the rules, Google will play by the rules (although they wrote the rules ;) )

Poor response.
In all likelihood, Google won't be able to identify your username & posts with your website. However, the AS-TOS forbids one from discussing their stats with others - therefore out of respect for the program, you should adhere to it's standards whether anyone knows it's you or not.
<preaching> You should hold yourself to a higher level of professional integrity and a stronger sense of ethical responsibility.</preaching.
Just because nobody see's you steal a candy bar from the store, doesn't mean that it's right.
Don't discuss your stats here unless you want to lose the respect of your fellow AS publishers from whom you may rely on for information to improve your income and publisher quality.
there are better reasons you shouldn't ask that question.
namely its rude
so if i used one of these scripts:
[webmasterworld.com...]
[webmasterworld.com...]
it will be a vio... for the Adsense TOS?
so they will close my account?
One thing you'll notice is that there are is a group here we like to call the "TOS Police". Any time someone mentions click through rate or earnings, they flip out like its the end of the world, and evidently you "lose respect" from them if you do so (lol).
Basically you can earn tons of money from adsense, but it takes work. Most importantly you need to get your site ranked well so you can get traffic needed to make money. It also depends on the topic. Some sites get 10,000 people per day and make next to nothing. Others get 200 people per day and make $50 from that traffic. It all depends.
Some days I earn $3, some days I earn $50.
good luck.

Sounds like a pretty big exaggeration.
For every one person that posts a topic that we've all seen 500 times, there's someone lurking that doesn't know the Webmaster World or Adsense TOS and may do something to risk their account.
If we're here to help each other, then it only stands to reason that in a thread that asks other publishers to break the Adsense TOS that someone post a reminder that what the intial poster is asking is, indeed, a violoation of the Google Adsense rules.
The person asking often doesn't know this and/or has skimmed the TOS rules and may be doing other things that could put their account in jeopardy.
If this board exists to help others, then I think a friendly reminder post about the TOS fits into that perfectly.
I don't know why people get so upset when someone reminds a poster of the Terms of Service. I think I'd be more upset if nobody told me and I just sat there unaware.

I made my whole site BLINK (yellow text on green background) so that the only thing you can read are the Google ads. Making millions!
