Taking advantage of the system or optimizing it?

Either way, AdSense is a poor way to advertise and a worse way to monetize. Unless you just want short term gains. Then, by all means… run as many contextual ads as your template will fit.

Sure, it makes money if you have enough page views.

But are contextual ads really worth it?

I don’t think so. Monetize your traffic with ideas and interactions. Not with text links.

Affiliate marketing needs to move beyond this crutch.
