Adsense is best choice and start earn. But the group members should not access the site and click the ads put in your site. Because, known persons, friends should not repeately click the ads. Google may dis qualify your site

Just have your mom put here SSN in when you fill out the adsense forum. You will get a form that shows how much money you made from the ad program come tax time. Take it in when you have your taxes done and as long as its below a certain amount you won’t even have to claim it. I have been using Google ads for years and have not had to claim it come tax time yet.
I came close one time but was able to claim it as a hobby and right off a ton of stuff that made it look like I did not make any money. Your tax person can help if you ever get in that boat. I basically just use it to pay for the hosting fees and a little pocket change.

WHAT IS IT EXACTLY?
Adsense is a way to monetize and earn money from your site by putting Google ads from their advertising network Adwords. It has been around since June 2003 and Adsense has allowed many website owners to earn from their sites. I highly recommend going through the Adsense Quick Tour to learn more about the program http://www.google.com/services/adsense_t…
HOW DOES IT WORK
You apply and once you get approved, you can put in the Adsense code in your site. Here are the instructions on how to add Adsense codes on your site https://www.google.com/adsense/support/b…
You earn through various ways:
1. Pay per click – this is the common way to earn which is you earn every time a visitor clicks on your ads
2. Pay per impression – an advertiser can specifically target your site and show ads where you earn via cost per 1,000 impression (e.g. you earn every time someone sees your ad, even though they don’t click on it)
3. Referral – you can also earn if you refer a visitor to use Adsense or Adwords, download the Google toolbar, etc.
WHAT PERSONAL INFO DO I HAVE TO GIVE?
In the application form https://www.google.com/adsense/g-app-sin… you will give
- your name
- your address
- if your country qualifies for electronic fund transfer and you wish to be paid by EFT, your bank details
- your SSN or tax account number if you are in the US as Google reports Adsense income to the IRS
If you are under 18 then your parent or guardian should sign up for you
IS IT WORTH IT AND HOW MUCH MONEY PER MONTH DOES IT BRING IN?
Some sites do very well with Adsense (even in the millions of dollars a year) while many more sites do extremely poorly with the program (can’t even earn $10 a month). One of the misconception people have about Adsense is they simply slap it in their websites and it will automatically earn them big money — which is not true as evidenced by the many disgruntled webmasters
Your income will depend on:
- the topic of your site (if you have high paying keywords you stand to earn more)
- responsiveness of users to ad (are visitors coming to your site with blinders in their eye or do they look at the ads as additional complementary resource)
- traffic (you earn more with more traffic, even if you have low paying keywords or other metrics)
- how you implement the ads on your site (some positions and colors work better than others)

>>How does this thing work?
You place the code on your site. Google shows ads that are usually relevant to the content of the page. If your visitors click on an ad, you get a little bit of money. If you or your visitors purposely click on ads to raise money, you get banned from the program. Resist the urge to click your own ads. Read the rules – you’re not even allowed to encourage people to click on ads.
>>How does the tax work?
You’ll get notified about earnings at the end of the year. Check with your tax preparer about the need to declare your earnings or not.
>>And how much do we earn?
It depends on how much the advertisers have bid to get a click on their ad. It can be as low as a dime per click, or as much as several dollars per click.
>>And how do we get it?
They’ll send you a check, or deposit it directly into your bank account.
Hope this helps!
