I saw a link in orkut.com . It was interesting that many are making money very easily like this. http://two.xthost.info/biotech/ They are promoting a link which asks the users to click on the ads. But automatically gets redirected to their main site. Their main site is a MFA(Made For Adsense). More over that site is highly keyword targeted. I was just thinking of starting a website of that sort and start making money very easily. Google can not ban the account for this cause, because that page is redirected to the main site, where they are not asking the users to click on the ads. A very nice strategy to be followed to make huge profits.
Google doesnt see it...Google Adsense has not banned sites like that... The risk is very low it seems.. I can show sites of this kind living for long time...
I think this is called Arbitrage and in June Google banned many many accounts for this thing . So think twice.
as you quoted, there is some RISK (read the word in BOLD, loudly)... As for AdSense Arbitrage, I don't think thats illegal... I don't see a reason why Google would ban a site doing AdSense Abritrage... All your doing in such a site is advertising your website which with AdSense in it... You're not advertising and asking visitors to click/click and make money... Arbitrage isn't illegal...
you should have read this: http://www.jensense.com/archives/2007/05/google_adsense_16.html then... what do you think now?
Well, my friend it's completely against Google TOS. Just look at this point in Google Adsense TOS, May not encourage users to click the Google ads by using phrases such as "click the ads," "support us," "visit these links," or other similar language Clearly, the guy is asking for a support by clicking Google Ads from others. This is against rules. Well, using high targetted words are OK but the line "Donate us by clicking on the ADS" is completely against it. Google will sooner or later ban him
right, this is illegal... but, I still don't see why Arbitrage is wrong... as long as its not MFA type and it focusses on quality content and services/selling, that shouldn't be wrong... I'll cite an example... one of India's very famous job sites is Monster[DOT]com... They advertise using AdWords, but almost every page of the website has AdSense as well... thats just extra income, not the motive... even if it is the motive, they portray to be a job site selling ad space for employers... meaning non-MFA type... as long as I'm doing something like this, Arbitrage shouldn't be a problem... but apparently, it is...
You should read AdSense policy carefully: "Clicks on Google ads must result from genuine user interest. Any method that artificially generates clicks or impressions on your Google ads is strictly prohibited.". IMO, this alone could get you banned because it artificially generates impressions.
My Advice to you to keep away from doing such a low thing. __________________________ Post Your Money Making Ways For Free
Think when ever you banned by adsense,you will never ever make another account, so not doing such things.
