Are we ever going to get free of MFA sites ?

    As I said in the title ...

    It seems that everytime that I think I find a good niche ... suddenly MFA sites seem to pop out from nowhere... This really brings down the whole value of the subject.

    Anyone know if the rumors are true that google is actively trying to minimise MFA sites ?

    I think there are attempts in progress to reduce the number of blatant MFA only sites

    But there are a lot out there, they will not go away quickly, if ever

    Yea, they will stop all MFAs very soon.

    First they will ban ALL adsense publishers and then manual review every one and every single website.
    Of those millions.
    Very, very soon :D

    Even if adsense bans MFA sites from showing ads; they'll just switch to somethng else that is less strict...affiliates, another content program. Whatever. They've always been there and always will.

    MFA is not bad but not so good to get money from adsense.
    You must create new design or sell real products or get affiliate program(if you don't have products).

    I think you should put adsense banner in right place or click Free Discount Shopping Mall ( Just for inspiration)

    No ,because although google says that they are against MFA sites they still make tons of money out of them so.....perhaps they will ban one or two just for the people's eyes , but they will never do something serious to hit them in the source...

    Yes... but they are not adsense only sites ... The contain alot more than just adsense ads ...


    Haha what a dumb remark ...

    This is probably the one and only truth ... I could have thought of that ...

    That's really what it comes down to. Google is going to drag it's feet as much as possible on anything that promises to bring less money in for them.

    As every adsense guru puts out new material daily on new niche sites made just for adsense.
    Heck, they advertise that way!
    Name the niche, they are creating new sites for it.
    Including blogs with adsense all over.
    Small mini-sites (less than 10 pages).
    And on and on.

    Google has done a number of things to combat MFbA (made for banning from adsense) sites. Like separate bidding on content(Adsense) and search networks and smart pricing. I don't think pure MFA sites make much money but I think the ones that provide some content and generate themselves some traffic based on SEO and SEM will be around. There is one site I go for definitions and explanations and I think they are sites that were made with Adsense in mind but provided some content to earn their existense in the Google world.

    Again, I'd ask do you ever click on an Adsense ad on a MFA site or do you just hit the back button?

    adsense.... chump change in most cases.

    I've always found it interesting that people will happily hook up with an advertiser who isn't upfront about what percentage they shave off your earnings
