Tips & Warnings
  • Understand that google places ads on your site based upon what it identifies your keywords to be. Using the wrong keywords in your writing can make the ads inappropriate for your readers, and they're less likely to click on them.
  • Stuffing keywords (usually at a percentage higher than 4-6% ) can make your articles be banned by google. If it looks like SPAM, google will remove it from their system and stop sending traffic to your site.
