How to REALLY Profit with Google Adsense
I like Google Adsense. It contributes a nice little chunk of change to my income each and every month.
That said, I don't and won't follow the lead of those whose sites earn only through Google Adsense.
What happens when their Adsense accounts are shut down by Google? It does happen, and they're left scrambling to replace lost income!
Don't believe me?
Try clicking on your own site's Google Adsense links once or twice and see how fast Google shuts down your Adsense account. (No, don't really do that!)
Does it make sense to build an entire site around financial products to make a few bucks on Adsense clicks, when you can earn up to $40 for a completed credit card application?
Not to me, it doesn't.
I use Google Adsense to supplement my affiliate income, not replace it.
Basically, it comes down to value. Value for you, and value for your visitors.
Sites that monetize only with Adsense aren't getting real value from their site's real estate.
Too, it's important to me that my visitors find information of value to them on my sites, and I do that by offering balanced product reviews and articles on the related topic.

Placing Google Adsense on your site is a strategy that will put money in your pockets even if your visitors don't buy.
However, in the same way you need to be smart about choosing lucrative affiliate programs, you also want to do your homework when monetizing topics with Adsense.
