Joel Comm is the author of the popular info-product titled Adsense Secrets, among other titles that he offers on his various sites. If you've been in Internet Marketing for any amount of time, you're bound to be familiar with it.
I bought a copy several months ago myself, and love it. I actually ordered two of his products (see my notes), and requested a hard copy of Adsense Secrets as well as the ebook version. The hard copy is a very professionally done spiraled book. I was glad I added that to my order too, because I love to grab it and take it on the go, make notes in it, bookmark & highlight, etc.
Even at $97, this product is a great deal... because if you apply the techniques then you will drastically increase your Adsense revenue on a consistent basis. And done right, you should earn your money back in a matter of weeks - if not days. That would depend on where you are with your sites or with site development, of course.
Anyway, it came up in a recent discussion on my forum that Joel also has a physical book on Amazon titled The Adsense Code:
Can anyone with both books comment on this? Is it the same?
Anyway, if you're thinking of getting The Adsense Code from amazon, order it from Joel's amazon link on his site to get lots of additional bonuses. One of which is Michael Cheney's Adsense Clinic Videos (not the same as Cheney's main videos product).
... which sells for around 15 dollars. Is this one and the same? Surely not... He wouldnt be selling a book on Amazon for $15 that he sells on his website for $97, right?
I decided to check into it...
I started out by reading the Reviews on Amazon. I figured it would likely get mentioned there if someone else had ordered for the sake of comparison. The Reviews were all positive though, and nobody mentioned Adsense Secrets. I also checked out the sales copy for The Adsense Code - Joel does mention being the author of Adsense Secrets, which leads me to believe this is a newer book with more or different information.
Curiosity has the better of me, so I decided to just order a copy and check it out for myself. Besides, you get tons of cool bonuses through Joel's site when you do... so it's worth the 15 bucks.
While I was at it, I also ordered Money For Content and Your Clicks For Free : Turning Web Sites, Blogs, and Podcasts Into Cash. It looked like it might be a good addition to my summer reading... and adding it to my cart qualified my order for free shipping 😉
I'll let you know what I think of both titles once they arrive - and the comparison between The Adsense Code and Adsense Secrets. For now I am off to claim my bonuses from Joel!
Best,

About Lynn Terry
Lynn, I look forward to hearing your thoughts on Adsense Code. I'd never even heard of it until you mentioned it, and I'm chuckling at the way he made the cover look like the DaVinci Code. hehe!
I own the first and second editions of Adsense Secrets, and his techniques do work. I went from earning a few dollars a week, to several hundred a month, immediately after putting his suggestions into effect. I'd say I've earned back the money I spent on his book at least dozens of times over since then.
That other book sounds interesting too, hopefully you'll offer some thoughts on it once you finish it! 🙂
I'll definitely let you know my thoughts on both once I get a chance to read through them. I am looking forward to checking out the Adsense Code, as I've had good results with the tips I got from Adsense Secrets as well. The bonuses alone were well worth the 15 dollars!
Lynn,
I'm glad that you've decided to look into this topic. I already think that both books are different, but how much different is the question. Are there any key things mentioned in one and not the other? Stuff like that I guess. I'm looking forward to your findings.
In any case, the book and bonuses are a steal at 15 bucks.
I imagine my package from Amazon will arrive today or tomorrow. I did speak with Joel though, and from what I understand The Adsense Code (physical book) is not quite as detailed as Adsense Secrets (the info product). They are two different products designed to reach two different markets. Which makes sense.
But you're right - for only $15, it's a no-brainer to grab the book and download all of the bonuses. I havent done that yet, by the way - but I'll check it all out once the books arrive and give you an update 😉
Lynn
Okay, well I was wrong - the books still havent arrived yet, so I went to Amazon to track my order. According to them, the books should arrive between July 24th and August 1st. I'm not sure why this particular order is taking so long... my book orders usually arrive within a few days.
Just wanted to keep you all updated 🙂
Lynn
