I find that google adsense is a great and probably the best pay per click program that you can use. Not only are the rates exceptionally good but the ads are automatically created to be related to the content of the page as to provide relevant ads to the viewer. This is exceptionally useful on a forum or such which has a wide range of heaps of different topics that can be used to draw visitors and then provide ads to those viewers about the subject of that topic.

I recommend Google AdSense too, I am using them myself and I like it, it is easy to use and get, the pay per click is quite high, but different keywords as I read give different sum. Anyway what I like about them is that they are really customizable and in the panel you have detail stats. I say go with google adsense, just don't <- snipped -> your self, google is smart, best if you will create sites not to get money, but for the users. }

No wonder google so successful.
I heard from lots of people that google's adsense is good.
So I applied to their adsense program 3 days ago,
yet I still did not get any reponse from them.
Anyone knows about how long it takes?

Well, I am new about net advertising. Dont know much about it.

usually few days, well it takes time for googlebot to get to your page and crawl it for good content.

I got a reply from google that I am approved on google adsense, on the third day as I remember, I got an email with all the details and stuff. Just remember to not <- snipped -> yourself, google is not so stupid But if you ask, what to do if you want to test your pages ? Don't worry, test them, but don't <- snipped -> with the same IP you enter google adsense. Hope you will succeed to have some income with their ads. There are plenty of secrets

Well, if google still hasn't crawled your page, usually it takes only a few hours that your google ads would produce relevant ads on your page, isn't that fast ? but if your page has no content, it usually shows charity ads or just blank stuff, especially if your page language is different from the most popular languages used, like one of my site is in Lithuanian language and big ads are blank, the half banner ad shows something about donating to charity :S}

Donate buttons will always be #1 on my site... i might go to a Adsence tho soon!

I might go target line, but i'm putting up a donate button for my project on a freind of mine in my website ( His name is Ben, and he's truly Nuts)

Alright so i guess google adsense is the best way to go. i'm planing on signing up for it but i want to find out how much ppl make off it. i need something to make at least 10 dollars a month so i can pay for my domain.

donate buttons are not illegal, but u like gotta have a purpose for adding the button or as "Kuyakurt" mentiond it'l sound like your begging

well.. go for Google Adsense in conjuction with a forum.. u'll make a decent amount monthly!
