Google has strange policies about many things. The article "Google vs.
Evil" <http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.01/google.html> outlines
their policy-making methods.

Let people know when you actually get paid. I know people that shot to
$300 in 2 weeks and were canned.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Little danger of that for us. So far, the results have been very
disappointing, with very few pages able to display relevant adverts
(despite being indexed by Google, already), mainly the non-payable
community adverts.

I am forbiden by the terms to disclose the CTR we are realising, so I
shall not. But I can disclose that our trials (which shall last
perhaps a week) do not change my (well documented) opinion on 99.9% of
'affiliate' schemes!

Good info Matt, thanks. Did you manage to get away with the tax ID thing.
UK business, Canadian host etc? As I read it, you are exempt. Me with an
American host, may be liable.

If it isn't picking anything up besides the charity stuff, good time to
can it.

I can guess what you are getting. Though I might be a 1/2% higher.
