Frequently asked questions

About AdSense

What is AdSense?

AdSense is a free-of-charge, simple way to earn money by displaying ads next to your online content. With AdSense, you can show relevant and engaging ads to your site visitors and even customize the look and feel of ads to match your site.

How does AdSense differ from other ad networks?

The AdSense Program differs in that it delivers ads served by Google Ads to your site. Google then pays you for the ads displayed on your site based on user clicks on ads or on ad impressions, depending on the type of ad. AdSense gives you instant and automatic access to a huge source of advertiser demand, which means competition for your ad spaces, more relevant ads, and ads for all your online content.

Do I have to choose which ads to show on my site?

No. AdSense automatically serves ads on your site that are targeted to your content or audience. Learn how Google targets ads to your site.

Who decides which ads to show on my site?

AdSense uses an ad auction to automatically select the ads that will appear on your pages. The highest paying ads will show on your site. Learn more about the ad auction.

Can I view the ads on my site?

Yes, when you've got your ads up and running, you'll be able to view them on your site. An important thing to remember though, is not to click on your own ads. Clicking your own ads for any reason is not permitted by the AdSense Program policies.

If I view an ad on my site that I don't like, can I remove it?

Yes. The Blocking controls page in your AdSense account lets you review individual ads and choose whether to let them show on your pages. Check out our guide to allowing and blocking ads on your site.

Google AdSense is for publishers. If you own or manage websites, blogs, or forums, and want to monetize them, the Google AdSense program could be for you. Ads appear on your digital property, and you can earn revenue based on the number of people who view or engage with these ads. Other platforms for publishers include Google Ad Manager and AdMob.

The Google Ads program is for advertisers. If you want to advertise your products or services on website or apps, with an eye on growing your business or sales, Google Ads is for you. Your ads appear on Google search results and our network of publisher websites.
