Can a website made for google adsense succeed?

    I'm considering to make a new website. The only incoming source is google adsense. Is this too dangerous to put all eggs in one basket? Can a website made and optimized ONLY for google adsense succeed?

    i guess by asking this you gave yourself the answer.

    first of all its not allowed to have a website only focussed on adsense its called MFA and google recently changed policy on this matter
    second offcourse putting all eggs in one basket is not too intelligent ,
    but also to "divide eggs" you should start with one egg.
    so let this be adsense.

    but do make the website primarily for the user ,
    - if u want to make it anywhere .

    google luck
    ehmm
    i mean good luck

    The website created solely for the adsense is called MFA site (Made for Adsesne). Of course, don't loose heart. Create good content, get back links from related sites and participate actively in the dp forum. Sure. You will be on the way to success:D

    well said, i started of on adsense through using adwords on another niche and it come to me that any site can advertise and make money. i seen a new niche and got on with makin a site, i was passionate about my content and very creative and even come up with a few things that have made my site unique, like forums, flash games, flash puzzles, flash soundboards and loads extra all related to my theme. sure its the best site on the net now for what it is, but it is still made for adsense otherwise what is the point of doing all that hard work creating unique content. there is a a pretty vague definition of MFA

    Do you mean you are making the site with the sole intention of generating money from AdSense, or that AdSense will be the only source of revenue for a general site? The former is likely to get you the boot from Google, the latter is fine provided that you follow the AdSense rules, though obviously it's generally a good idea to have more than one source of income.

    I guess you can succeed. Just don't make one page sites with tons of ads.

    It can work in the short term, but in the long term it is risky

    Yeah. To a certain point. There won't be any long time income.

    I don't think it is wise to make a site just for the sake of adsense. But if you do, understand the risk of being banned for creating Made for Adsense sites. However, if you're going to make a creative site with quality content and are serious about what you wish to convey, then go ahead and make a site. Then you can populate the site with adsense. No harm, no foul.

    Not entirely correct
    website focused on adsense only is called MFA-agreed
    But what he is asking here is whether he needs to monetise his site only with adsense, going by what you say all sites monetising with only adsense can be considered as MFA-not so
    A site which has value to its visitors but monetises only with adsense is not generally an MFA but it believes in what adsense is offering and giving

    Of course it is right not to put all eggs in one basket, but then u ought to start somewhere ain't it
