Adsense by Google works. I would recommend that you put it on your new forum site.

how can a test mode site have google ads?......and I thought they will not accept a page full of other ads?

I own the forum www.ComputerForums.org and sell ad space. Seems to do quite well.

 

[The Equivocate]

I'm getting a lot of hits, but have made $0.00 off of AdSense...

 

[holeinone]

Make PPL click....

The best idead for a forum would be to sell advert space using banners at the top and the bottom...

Use phpads etc...

or bannermanpro like WHT.
