Banned from Google AdSense

It is against Google AdSense TOS to click on your own AdSense advertisements or to get others to click on your advertisements. Note that it is also illegal to solicit clicks from your visitors either verbally, or through your writing.

Accidents may sometimes occur, however, and according to the Google AdSense Team, infrequent accidents will not get you into trouble.

Here is a list of common suspicious clicks questions and answers by Google.

Sometimes, you may also be sabotaged. A third party may decide to do a series of illegal clicks on your advertisements for the purpose of getting you banned. If you notice any suspicious clicks of this nature,Google encourages you to report it to them.

Use Google Analytics or other website statistics tracking software to obtain as much information as you can about the suspicious clicks. This will get them banned instead of you.

Instead of reporting the incident to Google, some people suggest that it is better to stay under Google's notice and to just temporarily remove Google AdSense advertisements from the locations where there is suspicious activity. After waiting a few days, you can reestablish your advertisements and hopefully your saboteur has found something else to do with his time.

It is also possible to both report the clicks to Google, as well as to disable Google AdSense temporarily so that the abuse does not continue to occur while you are waiting for Google's response.

If your Google AdSense account gets banned because of invalid activity, you can appeal to Google using this form.

Note - It is also best NOT to 'reward other hubbers' by clicking on their Google AdSense advertisements as that can also be viewed as suspicious clicks.

Publicizing your Google AdSense earnings information.

Opinions vary on this. Some people say that you are only not supposed to publish your Google AdSense CTRand eCPM figures publicly. Others say that you are not supposed to publishall exact earnings figures - including CTR, eCPM, number of clicks, and exact earnings numbers.

It is best to not publish a screenshot of your Google AdSense report page under any circumstances. If you do screenshots of your other Google AdSense pages or of other Google tools (e.g., Google Analytics) make sure that none of your account information shows up in these screenshots - including your earnings numbers, your e-mail, and your Google AdSense ID. This is important for your own privacy protection, as well as to stay on the good side of Google AdSense.

Personally, I would not publish any of my Google AdSense earnings figuresexcept as general aggregates, e.g. It took me about 4 months to get my first AdSense check, or I earned about $2 in my first month on HubPages.

Banned from Google AdSense Mistake 3

Stealing content.

Plagiarising content or copying contentwithout permission are also against Google's TOS. Here are some common questions and answers about Google's copyright infringement policy.

If the content owner files a valid DMCA report on your online article, you will most likely get your Google AdSense account banned, with no hope of getting it back - ever.

Note that copyright infringement does not only apply to text, but also to images, photographs, and graphics, Do not include an image, photo, or graphic unless it is public domain. Make sure to follow the rules of the public domain license placed on the image.

Images that are not explicitly flagged as public domain are considered to be copyrighted by the original creator. Do not use any of these images unless you have obtained permission from the original creator. Always attribute all images (public domain, and non public domain) back to their site of origin, and to their original author.

Note - copyright laws applies to videos, including youTube videos, as well as text and images.

Preserve your online legacy by only producing good and original content. This will also be the best way to get traffic and increase your Google AdSense earnings.

Generating fake traffic.

Do not try to trick Google by generating fake web traffic to your Google AdSense sites.

What is fake web traffic?

Fake web traffic is anything that generates false impressions on your Google AdSense advertisements, including -

1. Participating in link farms or link exchange directories. Do not link to link farms or link directories or you may not only find your Google AdSense account banned, but also that you have been dereferenced by Google Search.
2. Participating in rank exchange or rank purchasing activities. Do not try to purchase a higher Google search rank from another site. Google is good at tracking down these 'sellers' and when that happens, you will lose your money, your purchased rank, and also your Google AdSense account.
3. Participating in traffic exchange programs.
4. Using doorways, page cloaking and other similar techniques to get higher search engine rankings and to misdirect your visitors.

Here is a list of legitimate ways from Google on how to increase your Google AdSense traffic. Here is a list of things of avoid.

Banned from Google AdSense Mistake 5

Getting multiple Google AdSense accounts.

Currently, Google only allows one Google AdSense account per person or entity(e.g. company or organization). Some non-US publishers have reported that Google does not even allow two people from the same address to have separate Google AdSense accounts.

Trying to trick Google into giving you multiple AdSense accounts can get all of your accounts banned. If you have accidentally applied for multiple Google AdSense accounts, then it is best to write to them and apologize for your mistake.

Some publishers have gotten their AdSense accounts banned because it is related to another banned account. Be very careful where you place your Google AdSense advertisements and only include them in your own sites or a very trusted third party or business, such as HubPages.

Otherwise, you may get penalized for someone else's wrongdoing.

Banned from Google AdSense Mistake 6

Showing pornographic material or linking to pornographic sites.

Google AdSense does not allow advertisements to be placed with certain types of content including adult, violent, and racist content. Content relating to alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and gambling are also not allowed. For a full list of unacceptable content topics, refer to the Google AdSense Program Policies.

For this reason, do not distribute content, including website templates or blog themes that contain your Google AdSense advertisement capsules. Since you have no control over what others publish in their website using your themes or templates, you may end up getting banned because of what others are publishing. For even better protection, you can go to AdSense Setup >> Allowed Sites on your Google AdSense page to restrict your Google AdSense-ID to only trusted websites.

Some sites that support pornographic or other unacceptable content may point to your online site or articles. There is nothing you can do about that, so you will not be penalized for incoming links, just for outgoing ones. Be careful not to show pornographic material, use pornographic related text, or link to any pornographic sites.

Note - make sure that the comments that you receive on your online articles also do not contain any keywords or links that are against Google AdSense's content guidelines. These bad comments can also affect your Google AdSense account.

Modifying the look and feel of Google AdSense advertisements.

Understandably so, Google AdSense is very particular about advertisement tampering. You are not allowed to alter their advertisements in any way. You are not allowed to put competing advertisements that have the same look and feel in the vicinity. You are not allowed to place images close to your Google AdSense advertisements in an effort to draw your visitor's attention to the advertisements and increase your click through rate.

There are also restrictions as to where you can place AdSense advertisements. You are not allowed to put advertisements in pop-ups, emails or software.

Here are a list of common questions and answers about advertisement placement from Google AdSense .

If you are only showing Google AdSense advertisements through HubPages then you do not need to worry about these ad placement rules as it is taken care of for you by HubPages.

Banned from Google AdSense Mistake 8

No privacy policy.

Google requires all AdSense sites to put a cookie disclosure notice in their privacy policy.

AdSense publishers must have and abide by a privacy policy that discloses that third parties may be placing and reading cookies on your users' browsers, or using web beacons to collect information as a result of ad serving on your website. ~~ [Excerpt from Google AdSense Program Policies]

This only applies to AdSense publishers that run their own site, such as a personal website or a personal blog.

Publicly hosted sites such as HubPages, Blogger, and others have their own privacy policies, that will likely meet all the requirements of Google AdSense.

If you are not sure, scroll down to the bottom of your public page (e.g. hub) and locate where the copyright message is. Included close to the copyright message is a link to the website's privacy policy. Click on that and check to see if it contains all the elements stated by Google AdSense.

If you maintain your own website or your own blog, then it is important to include a similar privacy policy for every page that contains Google AdSense advertisements. It is easiest to include a 'Privacy Policy' link near to your website's copyright message as is done in most professional sites.

Refer to the Google AdSense Program Policies to determine what you should put in your website's privacy policy.

Failure to comply to this requirement could get your Google AdSense account banned.

Life After AdSense Banning

In the unfortunate circumstance that you do get banned by Google AdSense, here are some resources of what you can do to get reinstated.

• Google AdSense disabled account FAQ.
• What to do when you're kicked out of Adsense from Webmaster World.
• How to respond to a banned Google AdSense account notice from SEOpedia.

All of them seem to require a lot of work and some luck as well, so it is best to just keep a careful watch of Google's TOS and program policies.

Reading Google's AdSense rules carefully may not be the most interesting thing to do with your time but it is necessary to keep yourself from getting banned for accidentally breaking a rule that you may not even be aware of.

Remember to always be polite and professional when corresponding with Google AdSense. Do not publicly bad-mouth Google, or otherwise alter Google's trademark.

Site Design and Integration

Once you know you are going to put adsense on your website you’re going to have to consider where to put it. If this is new site it’s easier, if it’s an existing site it’s more difficult. While there are some people who will be able to do it, in most cases I’d say if you just slap the adsense code in, you’ll end up with a frankensite monster (props to Tedster of WMW for the buzzword). While every website is different, Google has published some heat maps showing the optimal locations. No surprise that the best spots are middle of the page and left hand side. Now I’ve done really well by placing it on the right, but you should know why you’re doing it that way before hand, and be prepared to change it if it doesn’t work out.
Google has also has published a list of the highest performing ad sizes:

• 336×280 large rectangle
• 300×250 inline rectangle
• 160×600 wide skyscraper

From the sites that I run, I do really well with the 336 rectangle and 160 skyscraper. My next best performing ad size is the 728 leaderboard, I don’t really use the 300 inline rectangle too often. So really it depends on how well you integrate these into your site. Placement can have a dramatic effect on performance. TIP: When working on a new site or new layout you may want to give each location it’s own channel for a little while until you understand the users behavior.
Another ‘trick’ that can increase your CTR is by blending your adsense into your body copy. For example if your body copy is black, remove the adsense border and make the title, text, and URL black.TIP: Try changing all of your page hyperlinks to a high contrast color (like dark red or a bold blue) then change the adsense title to the same color.
The one area where I’ve found blended ads don’t perform as well is forums, especially ones with a high volume of repeat members. Regular visitors develop banner blindness pretty quickly. One ‘trick’ to keep the ads from being ignored is to randomize the color and even the placement. As with any of the decisions about location, placement and color it’s a trade off. How much do you emphasize the ads without annoying your visitors. Remember it’s better to have a 1% CTR with 500 regular visitors as opposed to a 5% CTR with 50 visitors. TIP: For forums try placing the adsense ads directly above or below the the first forum thread.

Using Images

One of the latest ‘secrets’ to make the rounds is using images placed directly above or below an adsense leaderboard. This has been used for a while but came out in a digital point forum thread where a member talked about quadrupling their CTR. Basically you set up the adsense code in a table with four images that line up directly with the ads. Whether or not this is deceptive is fuzzy and very subjective. Obviously four blinking arrows would be ‘enticing people to click’ and be against the adsense TOS. However placing pictures of 4 laptops over laptops ads isn’t, so use your best judgment here and look at it from the advertiser or Google’s perspective. If you have a question as to your implementation being ‘over the line’ write to adsense and ask them to take a look.
As far as using the images, I’ve done it and can tell you it definitely works. You get the best results when the images ‘complete the story the ads are telling’. For example if you have ads about apple pies, use pictures of freshly baked apple pies, instead of granny smith, Macintosh, pink lady, and braeburn apples. TIP: Don’t limit yourself to using images only on that size ad unit, it works just as well with the other sizes, like the 336 rectangle.
Added:
I got a little criticizm for this and rightly so, as I wasn’t specific as I could have been. Do not use very identifiable brand name or products for your images. Use generic non-specific stock images whenever possible and appropriate.

Multiple Ad Units

Another way to increase ad revenue is to use multiple ad units. According to Google’s TOS you are allowed to post up to three ad units per page. Similar to standard search results the highest paying ad units will be served first and the lowest being served last. If there is enough of an ad inventory, place all three ad units. However you should pay attention to the payouts. Current assumption is you get 60% of the revenue (on a $0.05 click you get $0.03). So if a click from the third ad unit is only paying between 3 to 5 cents you may want to omit it from your page. This is one are where giving your ad units channels does have value. If one ad unit is getting a higher percentage of click throughs you’ll want to make sure the highest paying ads are being served there. TIP:Use CSS positioning to get your highest paying ads serving in the location with the highest CTR.

Adsense in RSS

With the growth of blogs and RSS feeds you’re starting to see adsense included in the feeds now. IMHO this doesn’t work, and here’s why:

• You only get to place one ad unit.
• You have no control over finding the ‘sweet spot’ for the ad unit.
• The ads are usually poorly targeted (this is getting better).
• People develop ‘banner blindness’.

I know people like being able to read full postings in their feed reader, and there are at least a dozen other reasons for full posts from pleasing your users to mobile offline computing, all of which are completely valid. However if your website depends on generating adsense revenue to survive, then bring them to the site and show them the ads there.

Affiliate Sites

Placing Adsense on affiliate sites is tricky. Are you giving up a $10, $20, or $30 sale for a $1 click? This is something you have to test on your own to figure out. If you aren’t converting now it’s definitely worth a try. I like to use adsense on my article pages. For example let’s say you had an affiliate website where you sold shoes. You’re going to need some related articles to ‘flesh out’ the site. Things like ‘getting a shoe shine’ or ‘finding a shoe repair shop’ these are excellent spots for adsense. While you won’t get rich, they will usually provide a small steady income and cover things like hosting costs.TIP: If you find you have pages getting more than 50 clicks per month add more pages about this topic, and link the pages together. Mine you logs for the search terms used.

PPC Arbitrage

This is a dicey subject so I’m going to steer clear of precise examples. Basically you bid on low volume uber niche terms at a very low cost. You set up landing page that contains high payout ads for the related general topic. You are looking for terms with a large gap between the price you are bidding on adwords and the price you are getting on Adsense. If you pay $0.10 a click and get $1.00 a click you make $0.90 each click. To get your adsense ad approved you will need to ‘add some value’ along the way. You can make a killing or get taken to the cleaners

Is it safe to be giving my information to google adsense?

As with all matters concerning the sharing of personal information, it may not be possible for any of us to have any guarantee that our information is safe. 

I had my reservations when I was signing up for a Google account (just as I had when I signed up for a PayPal account); but I reasoned that most times when we arrange to earn money directly from a company, that company generally asks for much the same information that Google does.  Separate from earning money, even when we don't arrange to use online banking with our personal bank accounts, our banks store our information electronically.

So, having resigned myself to the idea that our personal information is generally "out there"  these days, I did sign up with Google. 

After signing up, I was pleased to discover that Google sends a pin number through U.S. mail, as a security step.   That pin is not required to view Google activity, so as it happens I haven't yet had to use it.

Google gives users the choice between receiving payments through U.S. mail or direct deposit.  This, of course, eliminates the matter of sharing bank account numbers with Google if one doesn't feel comfortable with that. 

Since I have more than one bank account, I have designated one for transactions resulting from my online writing.   Doing that can keep one's "main living" bank account information private.  Banks today offer lots of free checking account options, which means there is little reason not to set up a separate checking account for online payments if that makes someone feel more secure.

My experience with my Google account as so far (knock on wood) been absolutely excellent.    Google has an excellent system of offering earnings reports and payment history.  

Having selected the direct deposit option, I am very pleased to say that each month my Google earnings have been uneventfully and successfully deposited into the designated checking account.

What Google does with any of my information behind the scenes is something I have no idea about; but having said that, my experience with my account has thus far been a very positive one.  (I've been using Google for about one year and a half.) 

List of 100% adsense Revenue Sharing sites

DW is an adsense revenue sharing site and such websites allow you to generate revenue through Adsense from the posts you contribute.These sites have high rankings and Google is calculating CPC based on the smart pricing method, where the statics of the page (where you got the click) is very important in determining the value of a click.The sites can surly increase your CPC. Also keep in mind that they have a lot of loyal readers who possibly reads your articles also (more readers=more clicks=more money). Rather than Just money, you can also earn some authority and experience through these posts!
Here I am compiling a list of 5 such sites, which allows Adsense revenue sharing on their posts.

1.Devils Workshop (DW):
I think that there is no need to describe DW.You can earn money from your posts in DW through Adsense revenue sharing system and can also win $100 if you became the ‘Blogger of the Month’.My favorite site where i makes guest posts.
2.SheToldMe ;
Another favorite of mine.It’s the best way to earn from adsense.Here, Instead of writing,  you have to share articles – i.e, this is a social bookmarking site like Digg and reddit.Through this site, You can promote your blog and also earn from adsense.You can even earn money by sharing the articles of others.
3.Hubpages ;
One of my favorite.You want to create ‘hubs’  and can earn money from the ads displayed in the hubs.Each posts is a page which is called hubs.Most of all hubs are added on the front page of Google and is highly SEO optimized.
4.Flixya ;
It is an image, video, blog sharing site, which posts your ads on the shared pages and shares with you 100% Adsense revenue generated from the contents you share.
5.Simpy ;
It is also another social bookmarking site just as SheToldMe.It also allows 100% Adsense revenue sharing to the contributors. Here too you can promote your blog or earn by other’s contents.
There are many other Adsense revenue sharing sites, which pays from 50%-100%. Anyway, this concept is accepted by Google and is the best way to make more money.
In my opinion, if you have an Adsense account you must checkout the DW and shetoldme.

Reasons why adsense link unit work well

I’ve recently discovered link units for myself, and having tried them out on a couple of my blogs, I highly recommend you give them a try. If you still don’t know what link units are, please visit this page: https://www.google.com/adsense/adformats.
In fact, now that I look back at the half a year of my AdSense experiments, I don’t understand how I could start with something else and not link units – they’re so simple to add and integrate into your blog design, yet so effective that they’re bound to make any page with a decent content earn you some money!
Looks like this:

Imagine yourself as your website visitor
The reason I never tried link units originally is because I couldn’t understand why someone would want to click them. As all the webmasters and usability experts say, you’ve got to look at your website with the eyes of a visitor. Not only you should do this, but it is also recommended to imagine yourself both a random and a targeted visitor – cause they really are two quite different flows of traffic for your website.
So doing such an analysis and trying out all kinds of visitors in my imagination, I just could not understand why I would like clicking the link units. It would make so much more sense to me to click a text ad which shows you the URL and gives you a short description of the website you’re about to get to. So it made no sense to me, and having spent few hours over the course of a week or two thinking about link units, I did eventually give the idea up.
Few months later though, having tried few other AdSense formats, I’ve decided to give link units another go simply out of interest. I was pretty amazed to see that quite a number of my visitors DID click link units and not only that, but also followed up and clicked some of the links provided by Google when you click on a keyword in a link unit.
Now I believe I’ve finally figured out why link units work. This is because of the number of factors:

Link units look promising
Indeed, most of link units look like some kind of a menu. Some websites integrate them so well, that they completely blend in with the rest of menus – so that visitors click link units as easily as they click any other menu item.
It had been noticed that using a Link Unit closer to the top page makes it look like a menu bar so much that it greatly improves the click rate, while if you were to place the same Link Unit closer to the middle of your page, it may have no impact and attract no clicks at all.
Link units are neat and compact
Link units are probably the easiest AdSense ads to integrate into your website design. There’s quite a number of formats for these units, so make up your mind and start experimenting
Link units deliver results
Essentially, link units are keywords – the most relevant ones to the current content, according to Google. And clicking on any of these keywords will bring you to more relevant results to click on. Visitors see the keywords and they immediately get an idea of what kinds of links they’re going to get when they click link units.
Link units are not overloaded with URL descriptions
This is probably one of the most important things to understand about AdSense link units. I believe I haven’t tried link units before exactly because of this reason. I did not understand why visitors would click on some keywords that they might have an idea about but no exact knowledge of what results they’re going to get. But then I had realised that this also serves as an additional attraction – visitors click on link units EXACTLY because they don’t know how good or bad results they’re going to get. In contrast, when they see a full-scale text ad, they read the description of a link, and they may immediately decide not to follow the link because they don’t want to visit a particular site. But with link units, they have to click to get the list of URLs with their descriptions
Link units are different
When users click link units, they get a page with relevant ads in a form of Google search results. This list of URLs does not look like an ad at all – it’s in a form of a list of potentially useful resources which your visitor might find helpful. I believe there’s something psychological behind this representation of ads, because users seem to be more willingly clicking such ads compared to how standard AdSense ads perform.

How much will Google AdSense pay me?

Since its introduction in 2003 Google’s Adsense program has been helping bloggers defray hosting charges and other costs related to running their blogs. Blogging can be expensive, especially when you have high levels of traffic and numerous pages. So many are turning to advertising such as Google Adsense to help generate revenue.
Google Adsense is an advertising program that is run (of course) by Internet giant Google. Google’s Adsense allows blog owners like you to sell advertising space by displaying relevant text and banner ads on your blog content pages.
Banner ads are the most common form of online advertising displayed at the top of many blog pages. Google pays you a fee when a visitor clicks on the ad. Because the ads are targeted to what visitors are looking for on your blog, or they match the interests of the visitors your content attracts, you can earn and at the same time enhance your content pages.

how much i earn with adsense?

Google’s AdSense is a fascinating revenue-sharing opportunity for small, medium and large web sites. Some webmasters are designing brand new sites specifically for serving AdSense text ads. (It’s against the AdSense rules to design a site purely for AdSense, so you’ll want to include a few affiliate links or sell your own product, too.)

I read an article about how to increase adsense revenue from associate programs here is the analysis from the article
Let’s say you have a goal of earning $100,000 a year from AdSense. Is that possible? Let’s see … $100,000 divided by 365 = $274 a day. So your goal is to produce either:
274 pages which earn $1 a day or
548 pages which earn 50 cents a day or
1096 pages which earn 25 cents a day
The following are hypothetical cases. To earn $1 a day per page, you need, per page…
400 visitors, 5% click-through rate (CTR ) and average 5c payout.
Or 200 visitors, 10% CTR and an average 5c payout.
Or 100 visitors, 10% CTR, and an average 10c payout.
Or 100 visitors, 5% CTR, and an average 20c payout
Let’s assume you choose a goal somewhere around the middle, say aiming for 50 visitors per page and want 274 pages earning $1 a day. You’d need 274 x 50 = 13,700 pageviews a day.
Does that sound too tough? If so, you’d better look for more profitable keywords and ways to improve your click-through rates.
Let’s try a different scenario, You choose more profitable keywords and make your $1 on average per page from, say, 10 visitors. 274 x 10 = 2740 pageviews a day, That’s looking easier to achieve, If your average visitor sees 3 pages, you now need 913 unique visitors a day.
Is that too tough to achieve in your niche? If so, create two sites, each attracting half that number, 456 unique visitors, a day, Can’t achieve those click-through rates and payouts? Then you’ll either need more pages on your sites on more niche sites.
Please note, because of the AdSense rules, these are all hypothetical cases. I’m not allowed to give real cases. Real CTR rates and payouts vary hugely.Choose the goal which best matches your site or sites.
Then start building keyword-rich pages containing well researched, profitable keywords, and get lots of high quality links to your site.
For example, if your site is about topics such as debt consolidation, web hosting or asbestos-related cancer, you’ll earn much more per click than if it’s about free things.
On the other hand, if you concentrate only on top-paying keywords, you’ll face an awful lot of tough competition.
What you want are keywords that are high in demand and low in supply, So do some careful keyword research before you build your pages.

Google adsense account disabled?

This person just received a "Google adsense account disabled" notification.

It's true. Such a message is prone to swing someone into rampant anger and furious chaos, causing them to throw chairs and scream "armageddon is here! Save Yourselves!"

Well, perhaps not quite. But I've known several people who have had their adsense accounts disabled, and it is not fun. Some of them were earning $1000 per month in revenue from adsense and having those earnings terminated and halted caused an instant and sudden stop of their passive income flow.

If you've had this happen to you, do not fear. Take a deep breath and continue reading.

Reasons adsense accounts get disabled

There are hundreds of reasons a Google adsense account disabled message can appear. Two of the more common ones are:
1. Someone abusing your website. In other words, refreshing the page all day long and clicking your ads like there's no tomorrow. This causes your adsense stats to be inflated and is a form of fraud.
2. Your account undergoes a drastic change in ad impressions. I mean it has to be a huge change. I once had a change from 1,000 impressions per day to 15,000 the next and this caused no problems. But say for example you have been receiving 300 impressions per day growing at a steady pace for 6 months up to 1,000 impressions, then the following hour you receive 50,000 impressions in one hour. This can cause your adsense account to be "flagged" and disabled.

"But it's not my fault" I hear people saying

Your Google adsense account disabled? It's not the end of the world, because as is clear above, it's not always our fault that this happens. In fact sometimes we have no control over it at all.

How to get your account back

"Google adsense account disabled" does not mean that the account has been terminated for good. It also does not mean that Google hates you. You'll still be able to use GMail and other Google services, and it IS possible to re-instate your account.

1. E-mail Google.
2. E-mail Google again.
3. E-mail Google again after 1 month if there is still no response.

I have gotten through to Google Support on a number of occasions and I know from personal experience that people have gotten their account re-enabled after contacting Google and explaining the situation (with evidence and stats to back it up).
It might take 2 months or longer, but if it wasn't your fault (if you didn't breach the adsense TOS) the chances are you will get your account back.

Personal advice

Here is the Number 1 piece of personal advice I have to offer on this subject -
"Diversification of Passive Income"

1. Never depend on just a single source of passive income online. This is just not a good idea. Google adsense is not the single site that disables accounts for reasons such as the above. CJ, AdBrite, and almost all other ad serving companies have similar policies.
2. Create more income streams to minimise potential losses. Have at least 5 streams of income. If one goes down for a short or long period the losses are just 20% of the full income flow.
3. Have a back-up plan.

Why Google Adsense Works

Google Adsense works because of relevance. The ads that Google shows on a website is relevant to the website's content. This ensures that more clicks come from the website's audience. For example, you have a website or page about 'plasma television sets'. The ads that Google will place on your page would be about 'plasma television sets' or something that matches very closely. Of course, your visitor will be interested in these ads and click, earning you and your website a few pennies and sometimes up to a few dollars.
This is known as Google Adsense for content and Google will pay for each click. Google will also pay 'per-thousand-impressions' (CPM). This is particularly useful if your site has lots of visitors. It means that every thousand unique visits your site gets as long as it has Adsense ads on it you will get paid.

Getting the Most Out Of Google Adsense.

So how do you make more money with Google Adsense?

• Adsense Blocks - The better the adsense ads blend in with your page theme the more natural it would look and the more clicks they would get since people wont see them as ads but rather a part of your page.
• More Traffic - The more visitors you get the more clicks you are likely to get. Always stive to write quality content that people would want to read and use keywords in the title of your pages so that they would get higher in the search engines where more people will see your site or page.
• Do Not Click - Don't be tempted to click on your own ads. Google will ban your account if they find out. How will they find out? Trust me, they will.

How does Google Adsense work?

One of the most popular questions about Google Adsense is 'How does it work?' Many users of blogspot making money with Google Adsense but do they really know how it works? I guess some do and the others probably don't care. As long as they are making some money, right?

Adsense is one of Google's advertising programs. Another one of Google's advertising programs is Adwords which is the source of the ads used for the Adsense program. Adwords users would pay money to run these ads so that they themselves can generate money by sending people to their websites.

Website owners known as publishers can sign up with Google Adsense free of cost and get to place these ads on their websites. When an ad is clicked on, Google will pay the publisher about half of what the Adwords advertiser is paying to run the ad. Google gets the other half.

AdSense

AdSense
Google's AdSense program lets you sell advertising space for other people's ads on your website--and not just any ads that Google chooses, but ads that are relevant to your site's content pages. The service is free, and you earn money every time someone clicks on an ad.

Some Quick Tips for New Users
AdSense is a great program, though Google has given it a confusing name. If they'd called it AdSpace, you'd know right away what it's about: selling advertising space on your website. Despite the nomenclature issue, AdSense (www.google.com/adsense) has become popular with bloggers and other people who run noncommercial sites. You sign up, carve out some space on your pages for the ads (Figure 1), paste a few lines of code from Google into the HTML for your site, and let Google fill in your pages with color-coordinated ads. When somebody clicks one of the ads, Google pays you a fee (the amount varies, and the company doesn't disclose its payments).

Note: AdSense can be tricky for e-commerce sites because you can't fully control which ads appear on your site, and you wouldn't want to run ads for your competitors' merchandise right next to your own displays. You can, however, filter out some ads.
Though you can't decide which ads appear on your site, Google does a very nice job of assessing your pages and supplying ads that might interest your visitors. For example, if you run a site about the history of window treatments, Google is likely to dish up ads for vintage blinds and specialty curtain rods. That kind of relevance is important, because Google doesn't pay you when somebody sees an ad on your site; it pays you when somebody clicks an ad. So you want Google to fill your space with blurbs likely to interest your readers.
The $64,000 question is, of course, how much can you make? The exact answer is: it depends. If your site gets tons of visitors, and you focus on a narrow topic, there's a good chance Google will serve up ads that appeal to a lot of people hitting your site. For example, if you run a popular site devoted to mobile gadgetry, you might make enough to buy a new device every few months. If your site gets sporadic traffic, or more important, if it's not clearly about something, it may be hard for Google to supply highly relevant ads, and you might make enough to cover a box of paper clips every so often.
