Some owners of content sites are earning four and even five-figure incomes per month selling "nothing." They're doing this by selling their targeted traffic to other websites through Google's AdSense program. If you're not familiar with (r)AdSense, it's where (r)Google pays website owners ("publishers") to run ads on their sites.

You Are The Devil

Ouch, no I am not, but my tarot prediction is. Thanks to 1-2z for the link. You Are The Devil Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition. Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about...

The dot-com balloon is said to have burst but savvy publishers have grabbed the coat tails of the Google search monster and employ Google AdSense on content-rich websites.

Dedicated To A Cuz..

Who bloody says I can't blog about family, yes I can...! Something from home by the way; here are some smuggled out pics of my cousin sister's wedding a couple of days ago.

When AdSense Goes AWOL

No matter how hard you work to optimize your page, there are going to be times when Google just can’t figure out which AdSense ad to deliver, so it defaults to delivering a PSA (Public Service Ad) instead. Now I don’t have any problem with charities, but I give to the ones that I choose to give to.
