    Came across a "loan" site and the owner is using a sleazy technique ..
    Take a look :www*ifsloans.com/bad-credit-mortgage.htm
    Actually you should visit main page first and click on top banner which kind of loan you're looking for.
    While I agree this guy clearly have more then 5% CTR, I wonder when his account will be banned..
    Am I missing something ? Can we all do this ?!

    Wow, that is pretty low. I guess for a little while he will make quite a bit of money, but it will be short-lived! ;)

    2: he has misleading words

    how do you know he has more than 5% CTR?

    it is a waste of time thinking too much on what others are doing. focus on your own site and spend time on your own projects where it is most productive. there are lots of people out there that are using black hat methods and sneaky techniques but nothing much we can do about it. google will sooner or later catch up on all crooks

    Most of the pages throughout his/her site have lots of content so I must say this is either:

    A glitch where the content that was intended to be posted wasn't uploaded or he simply hasn't populated the page OR
    That he/she is testing whether or not he can get away with it.

    Personally I wouldn't copy this tactic if that is in fact what it is...
