The Car that Google AdSense Bought
Actually I own this car almost 6 months ago, but after I recently made a search in google with this term, I became interested to write this post.

Yes, I bought this Mitsubishi Lancer 1993(evo 3 look) car from the sum of my 3 months Google AdSense earning. I bought it online from the owner, Mr. Rahmadi Budiman, that I met online on idmoc (InDonesian Mitsubishi Owner Club) mailing list. I had not had any interest to have a car before, until my first child born.
Althought I had been thinking to have an Mitsubishi Eterna, or Mitsubishi Galant or Mitsubishi Lancer, lately the lancer was chosen because after joined with IDMOC mailing list I have a fresh and accurate informations on this car. I need a good looking fast car, responsive enough in low rpm, with moderate price, strong yet elegant, and the last but not least is a reasonable fuel consumption. From it’s power I suppose it will easily reach 180 kph .. nah (my record was only 140 kph ;p).
The answer was brought by Mr. Rahmadi Budiman, a Mitsubishi Lancer GTi (CB5), with 1.8 l engine (4G93 without T;p), DOHC, injection, and with slow but sure negotiation he gave me the best price. The car was in perfect condition, I really satisfied drive the car, again thanks to the ex owner.
It’s a coincident, Yuga, a blogger in somewhere also bought a Mitsubishi Lancer from his blogging earning, his’ is a Lancer CK4 (I suppose) 1997, red color.
Picture above was shot using a camera that google adsense bought (Canon DSLR 350 D), engaged with the lens that google adsense bought (canon EF 70-200 f/4
I’m heading for a MacBook, VW Caravelle, and a house .. if you curious ;p

Wow! A car, a laptop, a dslr from your Adsense earnings? I suppose you maintain other popular sites aside from this blog?
Would you like to share how you did it?
Congrats!

Thank You for stopping by
@b456rz: indeed this car is deserve to be missed..(b456rz an ex owner of a car in picture above)
@arnold: not that popular, but I guess traffic from search engine (specially google) bring me a better CPC (and of course CTR). And yes, the earning is not from this blog. In fact I’m a new guy in blog thing, I even could not change your URI in the hyperlink comment (you typed http://aczafra,com/ not http://aczafra.com/)

[…] Among local bloggers doing this professionally, perhaps Kates is the very first to buy a brand new car with his online earnings! He was quick to reply on my comment on the specific model: a Toyota Vios, easily more than half a million pesos. He’s now one of a few who publicly acknowledged buying a car through blogging, like yuga and irawan. […]
