    ye, probably 5$/month is too less. But my blogs earn currently approximately 1$/day and so I cant invest 5$/day:) Probably I can try 15$/month, not more:)

    What I realize now after spending some time with adwords is, investing some money and time in adwords is the best way to learn about adsense and keywords:)

    I spend $20 per month and the hits do not stop. I get hits from all of the search engines that Google owns. When I signed up with Google they strongly suggested the minimum spending limit.

    What do you want to get from advertising? Sales or customers that hopefully come back later?

    what do you expect when visitor go to your site? buy or just to click adsense? from my experience, adwords contributes so little to my adsense. But when your keywords/contents/pages have been indexed by google, so you will see the clicks increase.

    A big "Do" - don't get frustrated if at first you don't see many clicks or conversions, or even much traffic. It's easy to lose focus from being super targetted in a certain area and being aggravated you aren't getting more clicks, and expand your campaign to take in more general keywords.

    This almost always has an opposite effect - you do get more clicks, but they don't convert because you're so broadly targeting, so you end up paying more to make less.

    Always be very very specific with your keywords, avoid general keywords , you ad should be very much specific to your targeted auidence, dont go for higher cpc and as others told go to adwords learning center and learn.

    My main aim is to convert visitors to adsense clicks. Thats my primary aim now.

    So, you recommend me to start with few keywords which are quite specific. I will do that.

    An update and a doubt :)

    Update: I have increased my campaign to 1$ per day, I will see how it goes for few days and then will decide what to do.

    Doubt: If I get no clicks per day, google wont charge me, right?
