Are these guys REALLY premium publishers?

    Okay, so I was doing a bit of research for one of my AS biology essays, and came across this site, www.scienceclarified.com. The nerd I am, I realised they were premium publishers (http://www.scienceclarified.com/A-Al/Agrochemical.html for example, ads down the side of the page).

    Now, I REALLY wouldn't have thought they get over 20,000,000 uniques per month, especially with an Alexa ranking of 161,000.

    What do you guys think?

    I think that if your site or network of sites recieves 20+ million page views per month or 5 million searches you qualify for the Premium Publisher program from AdSense. Some correct me if I am mistaken? :)

    It's supposed to be "one" site--but I'm sure you can try if your sites provide quality content.

    I thought it was just one site, which is why I was suprised.
    I guess you can network your ads then.

    Just because you get 20,000,000 impressions doesn't mean you will get the premiere publishing account. Once you have that much traffic you have to apply to become a premiere publisher and google can still deny you.

    I know that, which makes it even stranger why this site is hosting premium published ads.

    Well all you need is one account and you can place your premiere ads on all your sites. I've seen sites that are brand new with premiere ads on it.

    No. FKA you are wrong. Its not one site. Its 20 millions impressions per account. If you have multiple sites you can rake in 20 millions impressions

    A) Alexa ranking is worthless. B) Regardless of what some people believe you do not have to have 20 million impressions per month to be a premium publisher.
