You're right, of course, Adsense does give competitors a space to advertise on my site...since what I do changes all the time, that's not so much a problem for me personally :-) It probably does make more sense on 'niche interest' sites rather than your business site, but to be honest, I don't mind the idea of competition. After all, the objective is to beat the competition by being better than them, not by pretending they don't exist. You could say 'Hey, check out the competition, make me some money, then come back and let's talk'. In fact, I'm tempted to do just that. :-) I think the point you're making is generally a good one, though, for most businesses. Good point, Ben.

I use it on some personal sites, but if I put it on my professional site it'd just be a mini directory of other copywriters!
