The Google AdWords program enables you to create advertisements which will appear on relevant Google search results pages and our network of partner sites.

The Google AdSense program differs in that it delivers Google AdWords ads to individuals' websites. Google then pays web publishers for the ads displayed on their site based on user clicks on ads or on ad impressions, depending on the type of ad.

In other words AdWords is created to take money out of your pocket, while AdSense is supposed to put some money to your bank account. Sometime AdSense doesn't work like this and one always pays more as advertiser than another receives as publisher, but that's life

In a way GoogleAdwords does take your money away but if you are smart and have an understanding of marketing, human intention, and some intelligence than your PPC campaign should bring you some worthy results. The problem with Adwords is that there are too many idiots betting on unintelligent and irrelevent keywords not relating to their website. For example, this happened last week, some local car dealer was putting money on the word "cheapest business card" or something like that. The keyword was worth $51.50. WHy would anyone in their right mind bid on a keyword that has nothing to do with the services your web site provides??!!!
