The Hype around Google adsense

Most of you would have heard about an advertising program from google, the Google Adsense. This program is basically a way for monetizing the costs incurred by a publisher to maintaining a website. A publisher who signs up for this program can put javascript advertisement codes on pages of his website. When a visitor views the page he could see text advertisement links or banners related to the content at the specific area.Google Inc. will pay you if the visitor clicks on the link and navigate away to the advertiser's site.Payment of certain ads may be based on impressions created. Google puts ads of both types on a random basis.So the point is if you have a site with fairly decent traffic (number of visitors to it), you can make some money. If you have a website with lots of visitors and users, you could actually make millions. This is a fact.

Lots of Crash Courses

There are lots of people selling ebooks and books preaching easy money making through the internet. Most of them are frauds. All they want is your money, their idea is make themselves millionaires at the cost your ignorance. The truth is that 90% of such courses teaches you nothing. Certain things in life are designed in such a way that you need to learn them yourself. Ebooks cannot replace such experiences. There are some good courses also in the market. But don't buy anything that promises in helping you to make money in 20 or 40 or 60 days.

Truth about making money with Websites

You need to have tons of pages on your website and thousands of visitors and page impressions per day to even think of taking up blogging / website publishing as your career. You need to learn about the methods of increasing traffic and how to write good content. So after investing some money in a course and finding that your site is making only 5 or 6 dollars per month, please don't think that this business model is a faulty one. This model works but you need to learn about how to bring traffic to your website. If you can do it, then your blog too can pay you.
