Thanks Loai, I;ve been caught out with my adsense account recently when they changed the TOS so another one to consider is read the newsletters they send out as their terms do change and you will be notified that they have been updated

Nice list! No offense, but I think you forgot the most important tip of them all. If one wants to make money from Google Adsense, he should not be a blogger.

Yes, you read it right - a blogger. This is because most bloggers love to submit posts to social bookmarking sites, leave comment on blogs, and socialize with fellow bloggers. Bloggers should realize that traffic from social sites don't click ads. You don't click ads on others ads, do you? Worst is, no blogger buys a product from the ads they click.

Therefore, search engine traffic should be the main target - tons of them. They are the real and legitimate ad clickers, and product buyers as well. If someone wants to buy something online, he will search it on Google and not on blogs.

But of course, the list you mentioned above can help a lot too especially towards the top of Google page.
