Are adsense sites safe?

    I was thinking of starting/investing in some adsense sites. I have seen people making static sites (no maintenance), and earning from $50 to $200/mo from Adsense.

    In your opinion, is it a safe investment?

    May google ban such sites? (There is no black hat techniques... The sites have content, have some good 2000+ words articles written...)

    Google wouldn't ban a site who isn't breaking the Adsense TOS.

    Oh, can you link me to an example? Do you mean a site with just random keywords?

    Yes, you can do this. Just don't break the TOS and you won't have any problems.

    Well, I'm not entirely sure but you're probably thinking of MFA type sites that have random keywords, etc... no unique content at all. If thats the case, yeah google frowns on those.

    websites made just for adsense (just for advertising) break the TOS of adsense,so when they found out will close the ads for that website,or even your account

    If you get 1k sites that all look exactly the same on .info extensions then yes there COULD be issues. If you however have content rich pages WITH adsense within then you will have no issues AND they are stable income, well as stable as your traffic that is.

    .. for keeping me grounded on this subject. Newbies like me are sometimes duped into buy-in programs that guarantee AdSense revenues in the millions, but revenues will only be parallel to traffic. Cheers!

    I dont think there are too many people guaranteeing millions in adsense revenues. However i do think adsense is pretty safe as it is actually a GOOGLE service. Be aware however of things like GOOGLE money tree who say there are affiliated with google but are not
