Google Adsense is a pay-per-click advertising program that puts money in your pocket on a regular basis. To really make money requires a website or blog, a Google Adsense account, and a Google Adwords account. The concept is article marketing at its best.
Article marketing means that you write a good, high quality article about a popular niche subject. By popular I mean one that pays well in Google Adsense.
