    I'm new to all of this.I'm starting to research using advertising campaigns for my sites bcse I'm not making enough from buying text links.Forgive me if this is a dumb question.I probably don't understand the whole concept of using adwords yet.

    It just seems to me like you are paying 5 cents a click to make 5 cents a click.I could be totally wrong.I'm still signing up for Adwords.I'm waiting for them to make the little deposit in my account so I can verify it.

    I would just like to know if it's a good thing if your primary income from your sites is adsense.Or does Adwords work better for people who actually sell things or do sign up types of things?

    Thanks for your time and help.

    Paying 5 cents a click to make 5 cents is called arbitrage, and it's old and no longer viable with AdWords. In fact, with AdWords, you're paying a dollar a click to make 5 cents. AdWords/Google loves advertisers who sell actual things, as opposed to arbitrageurs.

    Adsense policy does not allow publishers to make MFA (made for adsense) style sites to advertise on adwords.

    Adwords works better for people who sell things, not for people who direct traffic to pages with Adsense ads.
