I hate being harsh, but this book should not be on the shelf. It has to be one of the most disorganized and useless books I ever purchased. You don’t need this book to learn adsense since adsense help function is much more up to date and useful. If the book was even organized enough for a good reference I may not of felt I wasted my money, but not the case.
If anyone gives his book a good review, they are either friends with the author or they can’t tell it like it is. DO NOT BUY!

I just finished this Google AdSense book and was very impressed with the detailed easy to follow information. Great for beginners or seasoned AdSense users as it has many tips for all on how to get started, improve and maintain a great ethical AdSense account. I can see where those who try to defraud the AdSense privilege would leave a negative review. For those who are honest and want to learn the many facets of Adsense this book is a must and well written! Nothing replaces this great hard copy in hand that has clear chapter titles and categories that are easy to find! Many illustrations that take you through the steps to set up your AdSense account, preferences, and much more. Very pleased and will search for other titles by this author!!!

The book is a decent introduction to AdSense, but contains serious errors.
I got a copy of the Dummies Guide to Adsense and on page 55 it tells you to put this code
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
in your robots.txt file to ALLOW robots to view your whole site. Wow. That code will EXCLUDE all robots from the entire server.
The correct code to allow all robots complete access is
User-agent: *
Disallow:
(or just create an empty “/robots.txt” file, or don’t use one at all).
I mean come on…the entire premise of the book is to get traffic on your site and here the author is giving you a “tip” that will shut you down completely.

This book is very good… I have read a few books on the subject and the 2 books I suggest are this one and & “The Adsense Code” by Joel Comm Fantastic Book. Also if you want to see my web site eBaySolver.com or eBaySolvers.com to find out about solving your eBay Problems.
