Making Money Through Google Adsense

One of the easiest way to make money from blogging is to add the account for google adsense. The google adsense account can be created with following url : 
If you have a google account , then log in with the gmail ID and password. Dont be afraid, this is a google product and you can safely sign in. 
Once signed in , fill the details as requested , and submit. Google will check the BLOGSPOT address , or the website you want to place google ads on , and get back to you. It is most of the times, approved. But in case it gets disapproved , it may be because : 
1. You are having third party ads on the blog/site already
2. You dont own the blog , and try to market it 
3. You have some hatred / undesired content on the blog ( covered in adsense signing policy) .
Once google has approved the adsense account , you are all ready and raring to go to make that extra money 
CAUTION: Please provide the correct tax information , bank account details and so on. The money though real is not black. In any case of fraduent or undesired disclosure , adsense reserves the right to close the account then and there. This is covered in the agreement. 

**** Do read the agreement completely and clearly when you accept the agreement.
