To anyone who is still in doubt, those tips are not going to make you a thousand dollars a day. You'll be lucky if you make $1 a day.
Why?
You need a LOT of traffic, high click-thru rates, and be in lucrative keyword areas to get anywhere near $1000 per day with Adsense.
While the tips are general and useful, there are a few problems:

Add placements. Make sure there is two ad boxes one at the bottom of your page and one at the top. Make sure the color of the add boxes matches the color of the content you have inserted on your site, blog etc. The best sized ad boxes are the medium size rectangles which i have placed on the top of my site.

People need to test. Different layouts work for different sites.

Have a site map with Google and yahoo. This means your newly updated content will be available in the search areas and will lead too increased traffics.
|
A good tip, although keep in mind that being crawlable does not necessarily lead to increased traffic. You must also rank well.

Ezine articles is another important aspect. I have submitted 25 articles too Ezine with my links down the bottom. Google analytics has showed me that has led too 45000 follow through visitors too my sites. Make sure the ezine articles have good keywords.

This is pretty old strategy, and doesn't work all that well. Think about how many visitors come to your own sites directly from free article submission sites. My guess is that figure isn't particularly high.

When having an Adsense site. Make sure too choose a financial niche. The keywords pay heaps and one click can average around $2. Look around for lists and see that some people using Adwords are paying around $8 per word/ click that means publishers must be paid nearly half that, which is a massive average click.

This isn't correct.
The bid price on Adwords doesn't relate to the content network, as webmasters can bid on each network separately.
The pay-out might be 1/2 of the content network bid, or it might be less. Google won't tell you what percentage you get, and it may change based on factors you aren't made aware of. So, if the Adwords bid is $2 per click, the content bid might be 10 cents per click, of which you get less than half....possibly around 4 cents.
So, how do you make a lot on Adsense?
The poster is correct in saying you need to do a lot of linking work in order to get traffic. He's also correct in saying you need to pick areas with high value keyword terms.
However, if you have a site that does all that, and ranks well for lucrative financial terms, then the site is pretty valuable, no matter how you choose to montarize it.
