Recently, I've gotten hefty clicks through Google Ads, but the earnings show up on my Google Adsense, not HP. Google Ads program and HubPages Ads program are separate, right?
Hi Kenna, Yes they are separate programs.
If you are enrolled in the HubAds program then you are paid for clicks on Google ads on your pages through the HP program EXCEPT for the one google ad that is right at the bottom of your article. So if someone reads all the way to bottom and then clicks that ad, you will get a payment for that one through AdSense.

Beth,
Thank you. The clarification and the link are appreciated and helpful.
That probably explains why Google AdSense suspended my account through inactivity.
Are you sure? You have to have G. Adsense enabled in order to be paid by HP. I do know that people have had their Google Adwords accounts suspended - that's a different thing; many people have had them closed due to lack of activity. Adwords was what we all signed up to in order to use Google's keyword tool.
Edit: don't forget, your Adsense is active all the time you are with HP.
That doesn't make sense because you are so active in general

So, the HubPages Ad Program is based on having Google AdSense? Well, I'm one of the thousands who lost their AdSense account without much explanation, so now I can no longer make any money on HubPages? I can no longer benefit from Amazon because I live in California and they cancelled our affiliate...

I got into an interesting discussion on another thread, and thought it would make a good thread itself. The question of the day is how do you feel about other hubbers clicking on an ad in your hubs?Personally I really don't see a problem with it as long as the ad interests them from a good quality...
