Frequently Asked Questions

        What is Google AdSense?

 

AdSense is a free, simple way to earn money by displaying targeted ads next to your online content. With AdSense, you can show relevant and engaging ads to your site visitors and even customize the look and feel of ads to match your website.

How Does Google Adsense Differ from Other Network?

The Google AdSense program differs in that it delivers Google AdWords ads to your site. Google then pays you for the ads displayed on your site based on user clicks on ads or on ad impressions, depending on the type of ad. AdSense gives you instant and automatic access to a huge source of advertiser demand, which means competition for your ad spaces, more relevant ads, and ads for all your online content.

Do I have to Choose Which Ads that Show on my sites?
No. AdSense automatically serves ads on your site that are targeted to your content or audience. Learn how Google targets ads to your site.

 Who Decides Which Ads Show on my Sites?

AdSense uses an ad auction to automatically select the ads that will appear on your pages. The highest paying ads will show on your site. Learn more about the ad auction.

Can I Choose Design of Ads on my Sites?

Yes. You can choose from a variety of ad sizes and formats and customize the way your ads look to fit with your website. 

Can I see the Ads on my Sites?

Yes, when you've got your ads up and running, you'll be able to see them on your site. An important thing to remember though, is not to click on your own ads. Clicking your own ads for any reason is not permitted by the AdSense program policies. 

If I See the Ads that I don't like on my Site Can I Remove it?

Yes. The Allow & block ads tab in your AdSense account lets you review individual ads and choose whether to let them show on your pages. Check out our guide to allowing and blocking ads on your site. 

Do I have to Pay for Adsense?
No, participation in AdSense is free. Even better, Google will pay you for clicks, impressions, and other interactions with the Google ads you'll display on your site. For more details on the revenue you can generate with AdSense, read our entry on earning with AdSense.

Does Google Have Policies for Participation that I must Adhere to?

Publishers who choose to use the AdSense service are required to adhere to the program policies. If you fail to comply with these policies, we may disable your AdSense account. In many cases we prefer to work with publishers to achieve policy compliance; however, we reserve the right to not display ads that violate these policies, to disable ad serving on pages that violate these policies, to withhold payment, or to close offending accounts.

Please note that we may change our policies at any time, and pursuant to our Terms and Conditions, it is your responsibility to keep up to date with and adhere to the program policies.

How Do Enforce Program Policies?

We actively monitor AdSense publishers to check for continued compliance with our program policies. If we find publishers that do not comply with our policies or Terms and Conditions, we may suspend or terminate the account.
