Minors can't form a legally binding contract, so I doubt any reputable companies will allow minors to advertise. Get your parents to do it maybe?

That's called "defrauding an advertising company"

If i had a website (comming soon... need to learn more php,swish,airbrush).
I would just ask if my mom would like to sign up for advertisements on my website(by addsense).
Just use my moms bank account. After its deposed on here bank acc she just gives it to me.
Simple... No fraude, i hate fraude.. bad things can start small .

Greetings,
Xander

PS: (mayby my mom gets a little amount of it for using her shizzle )

Why not just not have ads?

Some people ge put off by them, and for a small site like quite a few out there it's not worth it.

It's alright for smaller sites, but for places like P2L, the only real way to earn money is via ads. Unless, of course, you charge for registrations.

Let's hope that doesn't happen, adam.

I'd get my mom to do it, it's her credit card that pays for my site, I don't think she'd mind some reimbursement.

nah they say they dont want there stuff on there cc's and stuff like that, i guess getting paid to design websites for people is good enough at 13...


Joel@JHD

With google adsense you dont need to give them any information like that, just ur contact information and where you live, so they can send you a cheque.

I just do things under my corporation name. Legend-Core Inc. But, just get one of your parents to do it. Not like they ask for personal information beyond your name and address. Which you'd have to do that anyway if they allowed it to minors. =/

Did you forget U.S. tax law requires that Google collect tax-related information from all AdSense publishers?

[MachineDog]

Really? hmm.. nvm then.

[Jaymz]

As far as I know (here in Canada anyway) you can legally do things under a business name as a minor provided you file your quarterly taxes as any corperation should

I actually didn't see that you had to be 18 or older. I've been with Google Adsense for over a year now and have gotten over $325 in checks.

And i suppose you never noticed you wrote this in a public forum with your website in full view, don't be surprised if your reported and you have to pay back every $1 you took for fraud.
