Alright, so they found exactly what they were looking for. I can appreciate that argument. Being easy to spam...I don't buy that angle. Google, I would think, would be able to determine that a site was being "attacked" in that manner. After all, being a multi-billion dollar company, and with their commitment to quality results, I'm sure they invested a little time and money to be sure to provide the user the best they can. Not only that, but if someone found exactly what they were looking for, don't you think they'd stick around for a little while, instead of quickly bouncing out?
Cant see any reason why adsense should be negative for SEO. But i think it is a fact worth researching on.
in my opinion adsense is not bad for seo, I have a website that ranks no.1 in google with 44 million competitors but when it comes to traffics some visitors don't link a website with adsense.
I tend to agree with you. I myself have AdSense on my site and yet if I come to a site and it has ads all over it - I say: bye, bye. It's like a turn off for me. Most people do not mind it though. Maybe Google does take that psychological aspect into consideration?
Well, it is bad(as for the place where I work at, it is really really bad for SEO's to have adsense) You get salary deduction and suspension too!...
Any code that you remove from your webpage will help seo because this increases your keyword percentage rate. This is common on pages that have very little text and heaps of ads and picture to google the keywords may only take up 1% of the page and 50% could be adds so removing the adds would mean you keywords are present 2% witch is big jump.
Here's my take....ADSENSE is BAD.....for a brand new site! If you set-up a site and immediately put adsense on it...it looks like a SPAM site....if you build out a site then add Adsense to it a month or two later....i think this is the better road to take. Also I noticed when I added CJ Affiliate ads I dropped in ranking big time. But again this was when my site was fairly new!
