Hi, Is it possible to successfully do Adsense/Adwords arbitrage without google cracking down on you? Also are there any programmes that help you find the best keywords? Regards Waldo
Is possible, but I think that is very hard. Google is trying to keep these ads away from his search results - they want to only bring quality sites to the sponsored search results. Also you would need to work hard to win cents - I would try another thing. There are some guys that are still appearing for all kind of search like this: http://www.best8sites.org/ but don't no how much he is profiting - I don't think that he is making too much with this kind of stuff: too much work to win to low in the end. I don't think so.
The hardest putting is putting together a website that will attract relevant Adsense ads. Watch out for smart-pricing too, since you may start off getting a few high price clicks but then they will begin to drop. Also, a lot of the smarter Adwords advertisers will disable their high paying ads for the Content Network and you'll have lots of MFA sites (like yours) that will be appearing and giving you 5c clicks. The key is getting your own traffic mega cheap to start with.
I would say it's possible but only if AdSense is a secondary purpose of the website, if it's obvious your only advertising to gain AdSense clicks the new algorithm will make it a lot more difficult to make a profit.
