    I am a new user here and this is my first question. If this is redundant, please forgive me. I have http://www.sundaysaleads.com web-site. This site is under construction and will not go live for 2-3 months. I was reading the Adsense agreement and it says that Google does not permit adsense on “under construction” pages. Which does make sense because this page does not have any keywords on it, and Google won’t be able to serve any ads on it.

    My question is, is there any other service like adsense available for my site? What else can I use to earn some Money while my site sits idle? Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Until you have content and are indexed who is going to visit an under construction page. As a money maker it would be a dud.

    You could put up an informational page as place holder but I would hesitate in trying to get it indexed. Others may disagree.

    There are many pages out there who always stay under construction. I am only trying to find out what those pages do to serve ads. Is there any other company offering adsense like ads for under construction pages? I can add some html content there to assist the tools to serve ads. It is www.sundaysaleads.com. sunday sale ads. There has to be some ads for those keywords.
    I can jumpstart my site this way, while I get my .net coding done with SQL server backend. This may take some time because I work full-time and this is my evening/weekend project.

    You should go and create a adwords account and think about what is being suggested. Would you like you hard earned advertising dollars to be spent on ads displaying on an under construction page? Come on man, build an honest site, quality content put your AS banners up then.

    Besides no traffic= no revenue.

    I can't imagine that you would have much or any traffic to your site until it is established. Unless you have web stats showing different, I would forget about it as it wouldn't be worth the time. If you assumed an Adsense click through rate of 1% to 3%, and 25 cents a click, you're talking about a very small amount of money.

    Someone was advertising a site for sale that, while not established, had PR3 and had generated $5 total in two months.
