    Define permanent. A former collegue of mine has been using Adsense since the beginning, admittedly he has a large website with a lot of traffic, but he's been making good money for years now. Sounds good enough to me...

    It is possible to make sufficient money from AdSense alone. I have plenty of proof. Among the proof are people making $3500 per month from adsense sharing sites, various articles of mine which make £100 - £200 per year and various blogs which have taken a week to set up and make in the region of £100 per month. That said, I can still not guarantee sufficient income per month... yet. It takes time.

    The thing is (unless you get lucky) that you start off not knowing much and so a lot of effort achieves negligible income. However, if you stick at it and build websites, blogs and articles and analyse the figures and what works and what does not you improve and you monthly income grows (with the odd blip). Myself, I'll not stop until I do make sufficient from adsense but I'll also work on other methods of improving my online income. Today for instance I've added Konterra to a few sites and a few months ago I started to use Chitika.

    Yes you can rely on the income only you earned from the Google adsense But it will take a dedicated effort.

    I make my living from adsense - but only for the past 6 months

    Before that it was just extra income

    If adsense team ever decide to ban me for some BS reason, then at least I have lots of sites that I can switch to Yahoo or MSN version of adsense

    I would also start contacting google's adwords advertisers and sell them cheap banner space on my sites - to get back at google

    For now, adsense is doing fine by me

    Many people use adsense for a additional income, I'm sure there are some people that make enough to live comfortable but adsense earnings are never guaranteed to pay the bills every month.

    Just don't rely on Adsense solely, diverse. Otherwise, it may make you mad one day. Also, there are a lot of money to be made from other sources such as affiliate marketing, paid membership etc.

    Yes. There are lot people here who earn from $10/Day even $100/Day for living. Which means their earning is between 300/Month and 3000/Month. Isn't that more than enough for you?

    Yes, it's true.
    Markus is the first man inspiring me to earn some revenue from Giant Advertising Google.com, with a lot of hard work, now i made $10/Day using only AdSense. My next target is $20/Day. Wish me luck everyone.

    I don't think that we can earn a lot from Adsense. It's not possible in fact. It can be just to cover some minor expenses.

    Hi Jimmy!

    Earning a living with Adsense is possible, and I would even say it's easy.
    Don't get me wrong, it's hard work, and the money will not come over night.

    I did start out with Adsense for around 4 years ago, and the two first years I did not earn much. Today I earn a pretty good amount. I do not have a secret system or anything like that. I do things easy, and you can so to.

    - Read the threads about Micro Niche Sites
    - Make yourself an action plan, and stick to it for a while(at least a month, it takes time to get results).
    - Analyze your sites and make changes

    I also agree with the ones saying you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket. Daily you read about people who got banned from Adsense for no reason. However I really do belive if you do things on their terms you will be safe. Remember thatGoogle actually earn money on your sites as well.

    I love Adsense as it gives me a stable income every month. I suppose you can earn even more by following a lot of other programs, but none feel so safe as Adsense. At least for me!

    You are using a site which the owner is making more than his living from Adsense alone and you have the guts to ask this question?

    Some people can make a living from Adsense, but not many! If you are not in a low paying niche, it can be easier to make a living by Adsense. Anyway, Adsense is not a safe source of income, but it can be a great addition to the salary.

    Adsense is a great way to make some good and steady money (unless and until you are banned) if you are successful in bringing sustained traffic and it supplements my income although I find affiliate marketing more lucrative...

    Depends on how much you earn doesn't it! I reckon only a handful of people do, less than a thousand worldwide
