Hi All,

I have heard lot of about AdSense. I know what it is and how it works. But I want to know if I have an Adwords account then how can I activate AdSense in my account. Is it what we know as contextual advertising on Google? If not, then can somebody explain me the difference between the two?

Thanks and Regards

An adwords and an adsense are too separate things.
Adwords is for people who want to place, and pay for, ads on other sites.
Adsense is for people who want to earn money from their website and accept ads to be placed there.
I believe we are to have separate accounts for the two facilities.

Yes, if you check the box that says you want to do contextual advertising, your ads in your Adwords account will show up as AdSense ads on other people's sites.
