Well I found this web site : http://pictures.smashits.com/golden-orb-weaver.html Now have a look at it, all it is - is Google's image API search - set up with auto post (of some kind) and configured to Google trends (nice work I must say), but c'mon how is this in compliance with Adsense ? all it is - is the APi with ad's around it .... That can't be legal surely ? To top it off - they are in the top 1000 sites in Alexa .... What do you guys think ?
I don't get it...I may sound stupid but what exactly did he do thats so out of the ordinary? (apart from just filling the page with Adsense adverts...which isn't so genious).
What he has done is set up a site that fetches individual feeds from Google Trends, each post is then filled with the Google API / image search - alone, with just adsense ad's .... but there's no content or quality content, but yet look at how well he has done. It's on auto pilot using the RSS feeds from Google Trends, so much for the quality matters preachers. But Google wont allow adsense with just videos on pages - how is this different. Google hates auto posts and auto content - this page does both. Google doesn't like a lot of pings to Google blogs (directory) - this guy is on top of every trends blog search. I am just blown away with the simplicity of the site, the auto posts and lack of content on pages and how he gets away with it ....
It's no different, they are doing that also: http://utube.smashits.com/ Also check the alt text on some of the pictures like this page http://search.smashits.com/pictures.html The site doesn't comply at all.
Yea that's weird too how he has all the top nav bar page links all set up on sub-domains. And I mean all of them.. Humm.. that is different no doubt. Yea sweetfunny that is some long winded alt text.. looks like he trying to use the alt text as the on page content.. LMAO... look at the page title too on that page, he has things like "nacked pictures, actors pictures, urmila pictures, female pictures" in as the title.. wonder if google considers nacked as meaning naked? Looks like he does some serious keyword jamming in the title and alt text.
Yup - the youtube isn't as bad - it has content and text at least, but not much is unique - it's all using Google API and Ajax API, but the images are terrible, it's obviously aged and may have been in Google for sevral years or months. How the hell do they get away with it ? it's a big risk - they will loose a lot when they do get busted.
