The Dream Adsense is amazing. What else allows you to make money for such minimal effort. If you own a website and are a member of google adsense all you have to do is add code to your site. Then when people click on those ad's you make money, this is fantastic. Easy right? It would be but for some reason a large percentage of people who visit your site dont click on any ad's. Me when I visit peoples websites for information I allways click on there ad's, because this is how they can keep these sites running. Plus 9 times out of 10 the ad's are relivent with the page content and that's what I'm after. Makes sense, yes? This is a message for all web users. If you want website content to be good, then learn to click on the ad's of the website, this is you paying for the information you have gained. Also this money will encourage web owners to improve there sites with more and better quality pages and links everybody wins. WHAT DO YOU SAY? www.hartlepool-visitor.com/pay-per-play.html
I say that that's exactly the kind of logic that devalues AdSense. You should ONLY click an ad when you see something that interests you. That keeps the value high for the advertiser. The idea of "tipping" the owners of a site is a foolish one...not well thought-out...and the kind of attitude that leads to spamming. AdSense is not a FREE MONEY STREAM. People are paying for that. How would YOU like to be trying to advertise your business by paying good money from your own pocket for clicks...only to find that people thought they'd pick your pocket just so they could feel generous?? Very weird thinking.
I don't know if it always true that people who make adsense money use that revenue to improve their websites. I think alot of people will make adsense money and leave their sites alone because they're making money. Thats just my opinion, I would hope for your scenario of course, I just have doubts that it holds true.
I wouldn't say creating and maintaining a web site is a "minimal effort". Many successful AdSense Publishers work day and night to keep their earnings high.
I think that clicking ads, is "allowed" when your visitors clicks are not planned. Most of people using Internet(not those using it for fun) want top buy something i.e a book, they search with google, then your article appears and they read it and probably click your ads cause the ad is relevant to your website of ebooks. This is a proper way of making money through adsense.
The key to making good money with AdSense is 3-fold: 1. Have excellent placement 2. Have lots of relevant visitors 3. Have a site related to high-paying keywords
