Google Adsense won't make you money! Or will it?

Here's how you know you're addicted to the impossible dream of making money through Google Adsense:

1. You check your Google Adsense reports everyday. Sometimes more than once a day. And every time you check, your revenue has increased by the grand sum of 10 cents!

2. You scour the Internet looking for good info on making money from Adsense. You wonder how bloggers like this guy, manage to bring in the dough. You almost contemplate buying that $100 book on building Adsense revenues. But thankfully, better sense prevails. Or you find a cheaper one here. By the way, doesn't the cover look very much like a ripoff of that for Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code?

3. You keep tweaking your Adsense ads and their positions in your template hoping that you suddenly hit a goldmine. By now, you almost remember the Javascript code that accompanies the different layouts.

4. You get depressed when an A-list blogger friend of yours mentions getting thousands of hits per day on her blog, but peanuts in revenues, and then she decides to take the ads off her website!

5. You have read each help file on the Adsense home page, and all the case studies too, and in theory at least can spout as much advise as your blogger aunt. Except that she's actually making more money than you.
