        It's supposed to take up to 2 days. Maybe you deleted the email on accident?

          Would you recommend using it vs. say using an affiliate banner?

                There's no real way to figure out (ahead of time) how much you will get per click?

                  I've got a handful of mainstream sites that I use with adwords. The trick is getting an adwords advertisers account and finding out high PPC keywords.

                    Not really, there are sites out there (adsenseadwords.com) that display the average max $ per keyword. Others say the adsense payout rate is comparative to Adwords.

                      It against the TOS to use it for adult sites.

                        And AdSense pays only on clicks and not impressions, correct?

                                    yep, sign up as an advertiser, go to add a keyword and make play around with your PPC amount. You'll eventually find out which keywords are best and which give the best payouts and how many searches to expect a day

                                      I make about $50 a day from each of the 1-2k forums i run.

                                      In the beginning i only made $10, but its like the users found out that it was relly great sites adverticed through adsense.. so they started clicking

                                              depends on if the ads pulled by adwords are relevant. Mine was pulling "Free Chat rooms" , "Get your free online chatroom" shit like that. Since it was extremely relavant it got lots of clicks.

                                              I also had a AFF banner on the page too, that made 30 bucks in about a week on the ppc program.

                                              in conclusion, if the ads pulled are relevant then you CAN do well. If they're not, you probably won't make shit

                                                So why did Google make you stop, if you don't mind me asking.

                                                    I have some sites that will do over 1.50 a click, usually its for niches without a whole lot of traffic.

                                                      because I had adwords on a login page. The shit was displaying in a frame and it happened to appear on the login page and I guess that's against TOS.

                                                      BTW there's lots of rules that ARE NOT on the TOS page. and they'll pull your account if they're having a bad day

Because the ads are related to what your visitors are looking for on your site ? or matched to the characteristics and interests of the visitors your content attracts ? you'll finally have a way to both monetize and enhance your content pages.

                                                              Travel is consistant. High PPC words are usually stuff like payday loans, etc. The AdWORDS and Adsense PPC are totally different. You will get in between 10 cents and 1.50 for a payday loan site, but if you want the top spot for ADWORDS, it gets in the multiple dollar range. College education keywords do rather good.

                                                                              what the hell are you talking about? adsense comparative to adwords? all adsense is, is google using you to send their adwords clients traffic instead of the google search. then they take a cut.

Most people are wondering what subjects would yield the highest CPC Ads. From my own experience, Payday loan, college education, and other financial related topics do well. Travel is one that is a large market and can perform consistant.
                                                                                          there's a way of doing CPC

                                                                                          The way google works for webmasters using adsense is not using the top (highest) PPC results for whatever particular keyword. I believe the actual technical equation is alot more advanced and constantly updated but its basically;

                                                                                          Google likes the top PPC to go on google's search page, this helps guard against high priced click fraud from advertisers. It also means google doesnt have to pay out 50% of that amount to their webmasters.

                                                                                          So generally you'll find #5 and below listed on adsense randomly, though this is variable based on number of searches and clickrate for that keyword throught google's search pages.

                                                                                          There's also a variable of what percentage of an advertisers budget goes on adsense as adsense is less productive generally than google's search pagesm (I said generally but there are exceptions) and google wants to be sending decent traffic to their advertisers otherwise they wont be spending more on google's traffic.

                                                                                          Using adsense to determine what keywords are hot is not a foolproof way to find out the CPC but if you use it properly it will tell you how many searches to expect on a keyword (I go for #1 on google's adwords gets 1/8th of the traffic of google's #1 search listing, which is a low estimate but it works in my favour). Also if you adjust your phony keyword PPC in adwords you can see what kind of dropoff you get the further you go down and how many advertisers there are for a particular keyword. It is by no means a way to 100% accurately guage a keyword value but it does provide an educated guess

You just have to trust it. They claim they have a sophistocated formula to help serve relevant ads and remember, they also have to protect themselves from clickfraud..which is said to be as high as 20 percent of all paid clicks!

I just imagine, and from experience, that Google just does not pay out 'fairly' on high CPC, due to the clickfraud as you mentioned. This is why when 'Mesothelioma Lawyers' was topping $100 per click a while ago, there is no way Google was going to give you any reasonable chunk of that from Adsense ads.
