Is AdSense a good choice?

I want to make money online, around $100/month, I've built my website and monetized it with AdSense, but I see many people saying that people don't click on AdSense ads anymore, they've become ad blind and stuff like that.

Is that true? Is it still possible to make money with AdSense with a 30 page website and good keyword research?

    Wait... You want to make money? Around $100/m? You have already built your website and monetized it with AdSense?

    Here is my question...
    Do YOU make money?

    really depends on your niche and how much traffic you get to it. If it is a buying keyword and you can get ranked for a few keywords that get a least 2000 exact searches a month I think you could do it

    I pull in most of my online income with Adsense, so it's definitely not even close to being "dead" - far from it.

    Good keyword research is just part of the puzzle. You really need to determine if the niche is profitable and has buyer intent. Is it ripe with advertisers? How about your traffic levels? What about your ad placement? How solid is your content? All of these play a factor in your overall revenue potential.

    If your niche is horrible to begin with, then all of the keyword research in the world isn't going to make a bit of difference.

    It's a good choice for newbies who want to explore making money with their websites. After your earnings are fluctuated or your account getting disabled, you can move on with affiliate and CPA marketing.

    If you can get traffic, yes, it is still possible to make money with Adsense. I do it every day.

    $100/month is easily doable with adsense. But I recommend going for niches that can be monetized in other ways as well, eg through product/ebook sales, or even banner spots for local businesses.

    There are a lot of reasons for that, one of which is - something that can be monetized in other ways tends to have a higher adsense payout anyway. Plus, you can add more monetization and make more money

    The common saying is - Adsense is the easiest way to monetize, but not necessarily the most profitable.

    There are far to many people making more than $100 a month with ad sense to discredit it, Depends on the site if you should go with adsense though.

    Depends on your niche! With Google Adsense you can make good money, but only if you really have a lot of visitors on your site, but it still is a good way to make money online.

    If you definitely need more traffic - at least 10 times more to get anything significant. Think about it, how often do you click on Google ads? And yes bending the ads is really important - try to make them look like another link withing your site. I find a horizontal line of ads directly under a horizontal navigation bar works quite well.

    Traffic is the most important thing to making money with adsense. Just becareful with what type of traffic you are after. Make sure it is not paid traffic and that it can be easily tracked otherwise Google could suspend your account.
