    I used adsense for 8 years, got paid twice, the money i got didn't pay 0,0000000000000000000000000001% of the pixel space it wasted. Now I don't want to hear about it for as long as I'm alive :). Follow my example and you'll be much happier :) :) :)

    Why are you leaving Adsense? Any specific reason?

    Adsense is still the best way to make money on the web.

    Sounds like adsense failed you because you failed at creating a decent site.

    Yeah, my website never had much traffic nor content forced to high paying keywords with low competition, guess it was hopeless, yeah I have a better alternative to adsense, it's called real life work, I only get €5000 per month that way but its better than $150 per 8 years :)

    I guess you did something wrong then... It is quite possible to make good money with Adsense, although it probably isn't wise to base your entire business on it

    Maybe you can enlighten us on how you are making €5000 per month. Also, can you provide a link to your site so that we can make an assessment of why AdSense failed you :)

    Take a break for awhile and collect your thought and regroup.
    My first site I had adsense on was a site just for me really. It
    was a HYIP monitor site I used to write and keep track of my
    umm investments.

    I figured once I did enough investments and started getting
    people to the site I would then sale ad space to new HYIP's.
    In the meantime I didn't want the ad locations to be blank
    so I signed up for adsense just to fill the space.

    Three months into the HYIP games I lost $300. I figured it was
    time to do something different so I left the site alone and forgot
    about it. 10 months later I logged in to check it and I had made
    like a whopping $0.75 yea for me! But...that got the wheels turning
    if I can make $0.75 in 10 months with a site I had forgotten about
    and is really useless to anyone...then what about a site that is
    useful.

    So I started really getting into adsense...thought hey...if I can make
    $10 a day...that would ease the stress of the new baby my girl and I
    just had and pay some bills. 8 Months later I am averaging $250 a day
    now imagine had I gave up like you are doing now. I could have easily
    said...$0.75 in 10 months...adsense is useless. I can find that in the
    couch!

    What specifically was the reason you didn't get paid? I get paid month after month, year after year.
