Done properly you can. You need a quality blog or website that is well visited. The secret is to have your visitors to be kind enough to look at the advertisers advertisements. This is called keyword targeting and you build around those keywords. Google pays out after 100$ is earned in a month. When starting off that might take two to three months and after that you should be making a monthly cheque. One world of caution is do not click on your own adsense ads on your sites. You can go to other sites and click those ads but not on your site.

Most definitely -- but you need to have the right kind of website. Not all sites do well with contextual advertising programs.

The amount you can earn will depend on the

1. Responsiveness of audience to the ads = A travel website that provides information on travel to Spain will attract visitors looking for ways to arrange their travel and spend money on their vacation to Spain. Your site provides the info, but the ads will provide hotels, travel agencies, tourist destinations, car rentals -- ads that are likely to get the attention of the users of your site. This is a site that will most likely do well with Adsense. However, if you are a gaming website where the main purpose of the user is to play games on your site, then Adsense will not perform as well.

2. Ad format = some types of ads do better than others depending on your content and layout. In our case, large rectangles in the middle of the content is the best, while leaderboards do not generate as much as income. Skys are the worst for us. Experiment and measure the results via channels and see which formats work best for you.

3. Ad placement - check Google's heat map as they have tested where the best placements are https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=17954&ctx=en:search&query=adsense +heat+map&topic=0&type=f

4. Ad colors - sometimes ads blended into the content works wonders, but sometimes ads that contrast your site colors work best

5. Number of ad units on a page = we are allowed maximum of 3 ads + 1 ad links + 1 search box on a page. Maximize the allowed number based on the resulting look of your page (you don't want an overkill of ads). Users going to your page and reading your content may ignore the banner or rectangle at the top of the page, but may click on the ad at the bottom of the article

6. Smartpricing - the big unknown in Adsense. No one knows how this actually works. But it can affect the pricing of the ads on your site. If the advertiser paid for $0.50/click - but your site is smartpriced - then the cost may be discounted lower (e.g. $0.25). So you may try to develop a site based on high paying keywords but if smartpricing gets to you, then you may not get as much per click as what you are expecting from your keywords.

Here is Google's explanation of smart pricing https://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=9562&query=smart+pricing&topic=0& type=f

Google's smart pricing feature automatically adjusts the cost of a keyword-targeted content click based on its effectiveness compared to a search click. So if our data shows that a click from a content page is less likely to turn into actionable business results -- such as online sales, registrations, phone calls, or newsletter signups -- we reduce the price you pay for that click.

Experiment with the factors above (except smartpricing, which you can't control), and see which combination works best. Remember though that not all sites do well with Adsense - even if you get gazillions of traffic but your visitors are not interested in looking for ways to spend their money, they won't be interested in your ads and won't click.

I've been making money for a few years now with Adsense. Ever since I put it on my site it's been making me something. The thing is if you have a website or blog which you have set up and work on anyway, you might as well use something like AdSense. It's really easy to set up and once you do you can pretty much forget about it. It's referred to as "passive income" because once you set it up you don't have to do much at all and you still make money.

I haven't tried AdBrite yet but I just bought and am now reading this book called AdSense Alternatives which talks about AdBrite and other alternatives - 25 of them in fact. I never knew there were so many.

Of course you can make more if you do tweak and test it, but that doesn't have to be a time consuming thing to do either. There are some really good comments above, so I won't re-iterate on them too much. The key things are to make sure you do your keyword research and get lots of targeted traffic to your site. Provide good content and keep updating your site to keep it fresh in the search engines - although you can get away with doing this less if you have a well-established site with lots of good content.

Have a look at the site in my signature - this is the most valuable membership site I belong to, it solves the problem of traffic to your site and content for your site and the training videos are the best I have seen anywhere. But even if you are not wanting to join it's worth going and having a look at all the free video tutorials and books. This guy really knows his stuff and I have learned more from his videos than from anywhere else. Mind you he has made tons of really good videos - but the information in each is really, really good.
