I like Google Adsense. It contributes a nice little chunk of change to my income each and every month.
That said, I don’t and won’t follow the lead of those whose sites earn only through Google Adsense.
AdSense delivers great click-throughs and high revenues for one reason: the ads are targeted to what the user wants. Google’s robot picks out keywords on your page, gets a grip on what your website is about and delivers links that take users to sites that interest them.

When you’re starting up your home-based business, you’ll want to attract clients whilst minimizing the impact on your purse strings.

You’re then supposed to click a button to show that you’ve read it all through, understand it and agree with every word. If anyone but the lawyers who write these things has ever read them I’ll eat my hat. Most people just click and move on.
The Google Terms of Service are different.
Before you put Google’s AdSense code on your website, you must read the Terms of Service carefully. I’m not just saying that to protect myself legally; I’m saying that to protect your income.
