My site recorded click through rate(CTR) of 80%.That's because it is accessed by a community group and i haven't clicked on these ads. Will i be thrown out of google adsense? what can i do to prevent myself of being thrown out of this programme.

Didn't you get your google LCD picture frame?  Your supposed to look at your children and not at your stats.  \n\nGoogle just settled a class action lawsuit on click-fraud.

In terms of earning money on Adsense, your mileage varies. One website with the 10,000 uniques a day can earn $50 a month while another may earn $5,000. It is not easy to predict how much you will earn from Adsense. The only way you can learn about how your site will perform with Adsense is through trying it.\n\nThe amount you can earn will depend on the \n\n1. Responsiveness of audience to the ads = Users looking to book a travel to Spain comes to your site about tourist destinations in Spain is a site that will do well with Adsense as users are more likely to click on an ad about hotels in Spain. However, if you are a gaming website where the main purpose of the user is to play games on your site, then Adsense will not perform as well.\n\n2. Ad format = some types of ads do better than others depending on your content and layout. In our case, large rectangles in the middle of the content is the best, while leaderboards do not generate as much as income. Skys are the worst for us. Experiment and measure the results via channels and see which formats work best for you.\n\n3. Ad placement - check Google's heat map as they have tested where the best placements are https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=17954&ctx=en:search&query=adsense+heat+map&topic=0&type=f \n\n4. Ad colors - sometimes ads blended into the content works wonders, but sometimes ads that contrast your site colors work best\n\n5. Number of ad units on a page = we are allowed maximum of 3 ads + 1 ad links + 1 search box on a page. Maximize the allowed number based on the resulting look of your page (you don't want an overkill of ads). Users going to your page and reading your content may ignore the banner or rectangle at the top of the page, but may click on the ad at the bottom of the article\n\n6. Smartpricing - the big unknown in Adsense. No one knows how this actually works\n\nExperiment with the factors above (except smartpricing, which you can't control), and see which combination works best. Remember though that not all sites do well with Adsense - even if you get gazillions of traffic but your visitors are not interested in looking for ways to spend their money, they won't be interested in your ads and won't click.\n\nI suggest you read the following articles:\n\nGoogle Adsense: How Small Business Entrepreneurs can Earn from Online Advertising http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol123/adsense.htm \nEarning Revenues from Contextual Advertising http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol139/contextual.htm \n8 Tips for Maximizing Contextual Advertising Revenues http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol146/contextual.htm \nContextual Advertising: Why Are You Earning Only Pennies? http://www.powerhomebiz.com/022006/adsense.htm

If you used the same credit card, it probably doesn't matter and Google is likely within their rights to refuse service until all accounts under that credit card are satisfied.  However, I find it all rather difficult to believe.  After you pay the $300 Google should run the ad.  Hard  to believe they didn't give you any notice.  It seems like you are acting as a middle-man, so it makes no difference if the new company has nothing to do with the previous company, because you are the account holder.  It doesn't sound like you have a lawsuit, and what company is going out of business because it can't advertise on Google?  If they're going out of business and jobs are being lost, then there are issues more deeply rooted than Google advertising.\n\nSorry, try not to get burned throughout all of this BS.

Be careful of where you get your traffic with Adsense.

Y! Answers does not provide direct compensation for being an active member.\n\nBut you can always be a very productive member. Answer each question as best as you can and try to help as many people as you can. You can put description of your business in your profile. If people like what they read from you, they check you out and go to your profile. If they see your website, they are very likely to click on the link and check out your site.\n\nSo that's extra traffic to you. How you monetize that traffic depends on your business model.

I would suggest that you create a bunch of campaigns in AdWords so that you can track to see what is and is not working.  I also suggest that you turn on some ads and turn off others to analyze what seems to be working at different times of day.  The web audience is different during the day vs. during the night.  A good click rate doesnt necessary translate into a good conversion rate -- you need to analyze the tags and ads that are working and push those more.  It could actually make sense for you to increase your CPC rate if it makes financial sense.

YES it is essential to have a website before applying to Google Adsense. Afterall, where will you put the ads if you have no website? Plus, Google will evaluate your site if it is acceptable, and they can only do that if they have something to review.\n\nYour success with Adsense depends on the \n\n- responsiveness of audience to the ads (users looking to book a travel to Spain comes to your site about tourist destinations in Spain then clicks on an ad about hotels in Spain)\n- ad format used\n- ad placement\n- ad colors - sometimes ads blended into the content works wonders, but sometimes ads that contrast your site colors work best\n- number of ad units on a page\n- keywords shown on your site\n- level of advertiser bidding on your site - e.g. keywords "diamond" is worth more than "squirrel games" because more advertisers are willing to spend money on those interested in diamonds\n- your traffic levels - the more traffic you have, the better\n- your CTR rate - the higher the better and this depends on the responsiveness of your audience to your ads, your ad placement, your ad colors\n- smartpricing - the big unknown in Adsense\n\nOne website with the 10,000 uniques a day can earn $50 while another may earn $500. Your mileage varies. \n\nThe only way you can learn about how your site will perform with Adsense is through trying it. Suffice to say that some are doing extremely good with it and others do not.

Yes, we are having REAL SUCCESS with Adsense. Let's just say we are earning in one month what a research assistant in Washington DC earns in a year. We're definitely not earning pennies from the program :o)\n\nWebmasterWorld has a lot of discussions on Adsense and one of the most active discussions right now is the thread "How I made a Million in 3 Months with Adsense  http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/12751.htm . The person who started the thread is Markus Finch, who operates the immensely popular online dating website PlentyofFish.com. PlentyofFish.com's business model is different from the subscription based model used by the big online dating websites. Instead of subscriptions, Markus relies on advertising, specifically Google Adsense to derive income from his website. The lessons he shares are:\n\n1. Understand your traffic and how it could affect your keywords.\n2. Create sites that will bring in repeat traffic.\n3. Have your users create content and lots of it.\n4. Do not enter markets with a lot of competition monitized via adsense.\n5. Keep your site simple.\n6. Learn from various forums and if people are not talking about your market, there is a good chance you will make money.\n\nMarkus' website has an impressive Alexa rank of 1,407. What is more impressive is that the site is only a two-person operation, with Markus getting help from his girlfriend unlike his big competitors run by big corporations (e.g. Viacom owns Match.com).\n\nIt is important that you experiment, but keep in mind that your mileage varies. Some sites fit so well with Adsense and can earn thousands from it (example is my website), while some can earn very little from it -- EVEN with tremendous amount of traffic. Here's a thread I recently answered where the site owner said that her site was even featured in 60 Minutes show and is enjoying an avalanche of traffic - yet she earns only $10 from it http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=Ar5WQhJtsb8LJN4NbpDeivgjzKIX?qid=1006032112980 \n\nYou have to remember that your income will depend on several factors: \n\n1. keywords shown on your site\n2. level of advertiser bidding on your site - e.g. keywords "diamond" is worth more than "squirrel games" because more advertisers are willing to spend money on those interested in diamonds\n3. your traffic levels - the more traffic you have, the better\n4. your CTR rate - the higher the better and this depends on your ad placement, your ad colors\n5. responsiveness of audience to ads\n5. smartpricing - the big unknown in Adsense\n\nOne website with the 10,000 uniques a day can earn $50 while another may earn $500.

No one really knows. Google has not revealed this data. There has been speculations about it in forums such as WebmasterWorld http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/10398.htm\n\nYou may be able to get some gauge of sites using Google Adsense by searching for "google_ad_client" -- not accurate but a gauge.

Friend,\n\nYahoo is in beta stage and it is giving its adv to selected sites. Google is public you can use that and you can also get paid in indian rupees. So use google adsense.

it's called google bombing. people made links in their websites and blogs, and encouraged others to make the same links, so when you type failure, liar, whatever, it gives you the link they want you to see.

Its on a per click basis.\n\nThey will display your ads to multiple people - but you don't have to pay for it unless someone clicks and visits your website.\n\nIf they display your ads to 1000 people but only 2 end up clicking then your \n\nClick Through Rate is = 2/1000 or 0.02%\n\nIf you click through rate is lower than 1%, then they may tell you change or remove your ad.\n\nAds cost by Keywords:\nEach keyword has a cent value.\nIt start from 2 cents/click.\nDepending on the key word demand it may be as much as $5 per click! And yes there are websites that pay that much!!\n\nTo get started go this site ... www.overture.com\nGoing to this site will tell you a lot that want to know.\n\nA similar program google is adwords ...\n\ngo to adwords.google.com\n\n\nIn my experience,\nGoogle is cheaper and more competitive\nYahoo (Overture) is olders, not so cheap, BUT less competitive.\n\nHowever, \nGoogle is easy to get out of if you don't want to continue. Overture is little bit harder to get out of - they will charge before you know it.

Yes you can have adsense on yor site. But as above said the content must be approved by Google. And as far as i know "enough traffic" is no requirement at all. Its not in the Google Adsense's TOS. So you need not worry about traffic. And if you have a good content you will get traffic automatically.

Per Google TOS, you are allowed to reveal only your earnings but not other metrics such as CTR. But on my site, average CTR is double digit. If you are talking about EPC or earnings per click, that's different from CTR.\n\nTo improve your metrics you may want to read the article "8 Tips for Maximizing Contextual Advertising Revenues" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol146/contextual.htm
