    Hi guys, I want to understand something. For example, when you google search for adsense, a site like www.projectblackmask.com comes up on the right side. I'm not really asking if these sites are scams or not, to me they look like but my question is how come google let these site to be on sponsored links? Well, this site's content is about "slapping google back" etc..etc...

    Whatever the topic might be you can come up with these kind of "one-page-scroll down all the way" sites claiming to give you a super-secret for some $$....Don't google check the content before letting them in or anyone can buy those sponsored links?

    Because the owner of the site is paying (potentially at least) for their position. Why do you think that Google might not want this site appearing? (I've not looked at it)

    Check the site first, you'll see what I mean. The site smells scam all over it. Plus it talks about "black" seo tips.

    I seriously hope nobody thinks I'm somehow connected to that site. I just wanted to know more about google's policy.
