Hi, This may be a total newbie question, but do people get banned for search arbitrage, or is it just for invalid clicks? I found this in the TOS, yet I still see and hear of people doing search arbitrage "No Google ad may be placed on pages published specifically for the purpose of showing ads, whether or not the page content is relevant." If I get banned, that means I cant have Adsense on any site, correct? Is it worth the risk? Thank you very much, Michael
"is it worth the risk" is for you to decide, not us. different people have different risk thresholds. arbitrage is old hat. the market's flooded and it doesn't work well. try something that's always worked and will continue to work-- PPC -> affiliate marketing. it'll perform better, you won't need to worry about losing your adsense account, and it's much easier to get it to work.
