if you guys don't know yet about Google's Adsense i highly recommend getting familiar with it.

imagine banners on your sites being custom taylored by google's search engine specifically geared towards the text content on each page.

you can track how many impressions of your banners and see the amount of money you have generated in pretty much real time.

just make sure if you read the terms agreement carefully. discussing your actual profits can get your account deleted.

i highly recommend trying it though.

here's plenty more info on adsense

Yeah, I put them on my forum (which currently gets 0 traffic :eek: :() but I just wanted to give them a go and see what they were all about, by far the best type of ads IMO, they don't ruin your page either as you can customise the look of them.

Yeah, that's one that you should not do.

There's this site I report news for called julestm.net. The webmaster told me, and others on the site over iChat to click on the ads multiple times. He did aswell.

But then Google didn't give him the $100, because of 'invailed clicks'. they must have traced ths IPs or something.
