Google AdSense is a form of contextual advertising. Website owners put AdSense ads on their site, Google detects what the site content is and sends relevant ads to the site and the website owner earns a portion of the advertising revenue.
There are a multitude of products available on the Internet to help you increase your Google AdSense income, from templates to advice packages to ready made websites. BUT as happens with all money-making opportunities, the market becomes saturated, and Google changes it's rules. The combination of these factors means that firstly it becomes harder to make your site noticed and secondly, Google didn't like all the duplicate sites springing up or the sites with low quality content intended just to bring in some money.
They changed the rules for AdWords publishers - allowing them to put in different bid prices for ads which appear on other websites and ads which appear after a search. The net result of this is that AdSense income is not as great as it used to be and you can't rely just on AdSense income from your website.
I've just read the first part of a free ebook report, that explains the above in more detail and suggest what you need to do to make money online. Amazingly, it doesn't try to sell you anything - why not give it a quick read, it only takes a few minutes?
