If I am a Google AdWords advertiser, can I sign up?
Yes. We're excited to help you find yet another way for you to increase your revenue and encourage you to submit an application.
Can I sign up if I am already a part of an ad network?
Yes. However, we do have some guidelines as to how non-Google ads may be displayed along with Google ads. We do allow affiliate or limited-text links.
If your ad network already displays Google ads on your pages, you can still join AdSense and run ads on your site through our program. We allow publishers to display up to three standard Google ad units on any webpage.
Keep in mind that it's your responsibility to work out any contractual issues that may arise with your ad network as a result of serving Google ads directly.

Does participation in AdSense affect my site's position in the Google search results?
Participating in Google AdSense does not affect your site's rank in Google search results and will not affect the search results we deliver. Google believes strongly in freedom of expression and therefore offers broad access to content across the web. Our search results are unbiased by our relationships with paying advertisers and publishers. We will continue to show search results according to our PageRank technology.
Adding the AdSense code to your site will not queue your pages for crawling by our main index bots. While our bot (starting with 'Mediapartners-Google') does crawl content pages for the purpose of targeting ads, participation in AdSense does not increase the number of pages from a site in our main index.

How much does AdSense cost?
Participation in AdSense is free. Even better, Google will pay you for clicks or impressions on the Google ads you'll display on your site. For more details on the revenue potential you can realize through AdSense, read our entry on How much will I earn from this program? .

Does Google guarantee revenues?
Since the revenue that you may earn through Google AdSense depends on the content of each of your webpages or the search terms entered by your users, as well as the availability of related Google ads, Google does not guarantee that you will earn any revenue amount.
What is the AdSense revenue share?
Although we do not disclose the revenue share for Google AdSense, our goal is to enable publishers to make as much as or more than they could with other advertising networks.
We provide detailed online reports that enable you to track your earnings. Once you start running ads on your site, you can view your earnings at any time by visiting your Reports pages, where we'll show you the page impressions, ad clicks, clickthrough rate (CTR), your effective CPM, and your total earnings. This information can help you get an idea of how well the program is performing for you and how much you can expect to earn over time.

What's the difference between AdWords and AdSense?
The Google AdWords program enables you to create advertisements which will appear on relevant Google search results pages and our network of partner sites. To learn more about AdWords and begin advertising immediately, please visit www.adwords.google.com.
The Google AdSense program differs in that it delivers Google AdWords ads to individuals' websites. Google then pays web publishers for the ads displayed on their site based on user clicks on ads or on ad impressions, depending on the type of ad.

How quickly will Google ads start appearing on my site?
After you've been accepted into the program and have implemented the HTML ad code on your site, ads will start running within minutes. If your site is not yet in our index, it may take up to 48 hours or more before we are able to crawl your site. Until your site has been crawled, we may display public service ads, for which you will not receive earnings.
Your ad relevancy should increase over time. However, keep in mind that if you make changes to a page, it may be 1 or 2 weeks before our crawler captures the changes and updates our index to provide more relevant ads.
Adding the AdSense for search code to your pages will instantly generate an AdSense for search box. As search results are displayed on Google-hosted pages, relevant ads will appear immediately, if ads are available for the particular query.

How does Google target ads to my website?
Google automatically delivers ads that are targeted to your content or audience. We do this in two ways:
* Contextual targeting
Our technology uses such factors as keyword analysis, word frequency, font size, and the overall link structure of the web, in order to determine what a webpage is about and precisely match Google ads to each page.
* Placement targeting
With placement targeting, advertisers choose specific ad placements, or subsections of publisher websites, on which to run their ads. Ads that are placement-targeted may not be precisely related to the content of a page, but are hand-picked by advertisers who've determined a match between what your users are interested in and what they have to offer.
Our technology can also determine the primary language of a page. If your content is in a language supported by our program, AdSense will target ads in the appropriate language to your content. In addition, Google ads are geotargeted to your visitor's location.

What is AdSense for content?
Google AdSense is a fast and easy way for website publishers of all sizes to display relevant, unobtrusive Google ads on their website's content pages and earn money.

The program is free, and combines pay-per-click and pay-per-impression advertising - meaning you get paid for valid clicks on the ads on your site as well as impressions. So go ahead and try this program. If you comply with our program policies, just complete our online application.
We'll review your application and follow up with an email within 2-3 days. If you are accepted into the program, you can log in to your new account and get the HTML code to insert into your webpages.

How do I earn money with AdSense?
The main way of earning revenue with AdSense is by displaying Google ads on your site.
With AdSense for content, these ads you display on your site can be either cost-per-click (CPC) or cost-per-thousand-impression (CPM) ads. For CPC ads, you'll generate earnings when your users click on the ads. For CPM ads, you'll generate earnings every time the ad appears to a user viewing your site.
You can also generate earnings while enabling your users to search your site and the web.

How do I earn with AdSense for search?
AdSense for search lets you offer your users Google web search directly from your pages. By placing an AdSense for search box on your site, you'll generate earnings from ad clicks made by users on the search results pages.
You won't, however, receive revenue from user searches through your AdSense for search box. When users perform searches on your site, but choose not to click on the ads on the search results pages, you will not receive any earnings.

Can I filter the ads that are displayed on my site?
Yes, you can prevent ads from appearing on your pages using two tools in your account.
* Competitive Ad Filter
This filter lets you create and manage a list of websites whose ads you'd prefer not to show on your pages. Add a URL to your filter list, and ads from that site will no longer display on your pages.
* Ad Review Center
This tool allows you to prevent placement-targeted ads from appearing on your pages. You can block ads by advertiser or by ad group.
Keep in mind, though, that filtering ads may decrease ad competition to appear on your pages, which can decrease your potential earnings.

The Google ads you are able to display on your content pages can be either cost-per-click (CPC) or cost-per-1000-impressions (CPM) ads, while AdSense for search results pages show exclusively CPC ads.

Although we don't disclose the exact revenue share, our goal is to enable publishers to make as much or more than they could with other advertising networks.
