Crap blog about a crap movie ... but GREAT Google images traffic

    For sale is a blog that gets averages 70-100 visits per day, almost entirely from Google Images traffic.

    On page 1 for the search "Lucy Liu" (without quotes), and one of the hottest images there.

    The blog itself is about a movie that ended up sucking big time, but it still gets a little traffic from Wikipedia (long term listing there) and Google (seems to have slipped to the top of page2 - was ranked 6 or so for a while).

    Been online since December last year - Archive.org listed.

    Full screenshot of AWStats here (690k)

    Domain is at Namecheap and recently renewed.

    Has earned $2 this week on Adsense (though primarily from a $1.20 click yesterday!). I only put adsense on the site August 6th, and it has earned a whole $7.48 since then.

    I have no idea if Google Images traffic can be better monetised ... I was going to activate hotlink protection (as you can see it's burning through a fair bit of bandwidth with linked images), but figured I'd try and sell instead.

    Starting price: $10
    No BIN (make an offer if you like).
    Auction ends: 30 hours from now (10.34pm UK time).

    i never understand google anser to my question according to them you can not have copyright images next to adsense or even on the same page to adsense. So 100 000 of domains must be breaking the terms of google adsense and so are you right?

    and yeah whats the domain

    Haha whoops, forgot to include that information.

    URL: http://www.codenamethecleaner.net (would have been a great domain if the movie hadn't been so crap).

    YB I guess you are right, though in terms of violations I can't imagine this one being major. Otherwise you're right, millions of sites would be in trouble ...
