Earn With Google AdSense Program
If you are searching for one of the easiest ways to make money online, then you should consider Google AdSense.
The reason why I'm saying it is “easy” is because:
1. Signing up to Google AdSense is FREE
2. You can earn money writing about something that you like, a passion of your or anything that interests you.
How Google AdSense works
Let's say you create a website on a passion of yours, for example, "gardening".
Then, you will make a Google AdSense account, which is, as I said before, FREE (I will tell you how to do that later).
Google will display on your site ads related to your topic. Then, each time a visitor on your site clicks on these ads, you get paid.
How much you can earn with Google AdSense Program
Well...the truth is that Google doesn't tell you exactly how much you will earn when an ad on your site is clicked. Anyway, commissions are anywhere from 2 cents to 20$ per ad clicked.
It depends on the topic you choose and how much are advertisers paying Google for that ad.
Anyway, once you have your Google AdSense account, you can always see how much you have earned that day.
Will Google give you the money?
The answer is YES, they will. Why? Because Google is a serious company and they also have benefits from that.
Google receives money from the advertisers through a program called AdWords.
So, let's say a company pays Google through AdWords to advertise their products. Google displays their ad on your site and each time a visitor clicks on that ad, you get paid.
The best part of it is that the visitor doesn't have to buy anything from that company so that you get paid. He/she only has to click on the ad.

Google AdSense Tips: Increase Your AdSense Earnings
Many people join AdSense thinking it's an easy way to make money online. If you are one of them, then, I'm sorry to disappoint you! Because it is not easy, I would like to you if I would say it was.
As in any other business, if you want to succeed with Google AdSense, you have to know from the beginning that implies a lot of work...but I really think it is worth as, in time, your site will get tobring you money while you sleep, travel or have fun with your friends.
I've talked to many people that were complaining they don't succeed in making money with Google AdSense.Some of them don't even earn $100/month. But there are also a lot of people earning thousands of dollars a month with Google AdSense.
The first ones were wondering “what was what made the difference between success and failure?”
So, let me explain you what made that difference.
The ones that have failed have created junky sites, with little content, they didn't update their sites or they didn't promote well their websites.
So, here are some “rules” you should follow if you want to succeed with Google AdSense:
Google doesn't accept anymore free blogs and sites created on free web hosts. You must register a domain name.
After you have done that, choose the proper web hosting plan.
So, don't try signing up with a free blog or with a free web hosting account, cause you won't get accepted anyway.
Here is a list of some professional web hosts that let you register your domain name for free: List of Web Hosts.
If you want to succeed with Google AdSense, make sure you choose a topic that you know a lot of things about, so that you can keep updating and adding more and more content to your website.
Keep in mind that your content must be unique. Of course, you can inspire yourself from other sites, but don't copy them.
Write as many pages as you can (Google likes sites that have at least 15 pages).
Make sure your site is well organized, easy to follow. Also, make sure you have lots of useful information on it.
Create a Sitemap, an About page, a Contact page...
After your site is “ready”, you will need traffic in order to succeed with Google AdSense. Just think about it...what would be the chance that someone clicks on your ads if you have, let's say, 2000 visitors a day, compared to the case when you would have, for example, 100 visitors a day.
It is simple...the bigger the number of visitors on your site, the bigger the chances that your ads are being clicked on! And so, your money will come!
The most important thing in bringing a lot of traffic to your website is to get your site ranked high in search engine results.
Obviously, if a person searches for a certain topic, they won't look on the 50th page of results. They only click on the sites displayed on the first pages.

Keep in mind that there are some other ways to bring traffic to your website, so, make sure you follow them too.
