Google Ads - What's your thoughts?


I'm thinking about adding Google Ads to my forum.

I've never been a fan of them and I don't like it when I see them on websites but is it a good way to make a little but of money?

Obviously they would only be visible to guests and there wouldn't be many of them.

Is it worth while?

Thanks

Yes, I have been using them since the launch of my forum and at the moment they easily pay for the hosting costs etc.

I have been using them for a long time and only show them to guest only also. They are great to start out with. As Yogesh states, if you can cover your hosting, the domain, and just a little bit more its a good thing.

With the revenue from two forums, i earn about 250$ per month... so i can cover the hosting for a whole year, and still have something left

I've had them installed for less than 48hrs and I already have 17.5% of my monthly hosting fees.

Well chuffed!

Re: Google Ads - What's your thoughts?


adsense is the best program i have ever tried. And they pay well for clicks so if you need to cover hosting and domain costs it would be an ideal option.
