Examining Advertisement Networks - Google AdSense

Google Adsense

Of course the most prominent of all advertising networks is Google AdSense. This was my own first ad network which I utilized for my first website. After all, they are by far the largest ad network out there. Not only are their ad codes easy to integrate into any blog or site, AdSense accepts most publishers, even the new and very small. Additionally, external site evaluators consider Google AdSense daily income when determining website or blog worth.

There are two frequent complaints about AdSense. The first is the high payout threshold which is set at $100. The second and continually raised caution when using this network is Google’s frequency of banning publishers for violations of their agreement. Mainly Google AdSense terminates publisher use for clicking upon their own ads in an attempt to fraudulently raise their revenue.
