How to Place Google PPC Ads on a Website
Google's PPC ads can earn a few cents per click when you put them in the right place on your website. You simply need to cut and paste a section of code and add it to your HTML pages to get their ads to appear on your website. Google's search engine technology will scan the page the code is on, and then send relevant ads directly to your page using a special computer language and the Internet. When people click those ads, it records the click in your account, and you get paid.

Tips & Warnings
You can also reconfigure the ads by going back into your AdSense account (see step 5) and choosing different options to change the code. You have to re-copy the code and paste it back into your web pages for the changes to appear. You can modify the colors of the ads and much more.
Do not click your own ads. You will find after even two or three clicks that your entire account is suspended for life.
