Hi, I think I got hit by this Smart Pricing recently, and trying to avoid it... I'm thinking of opening another adsense account with different name or something.. And then split the site into 2 or more accounts (possibly 1 account per each site)... Does anyone know if this is a good way of avoding Smart Pricing? Or has anyone experienced this similiar experiment before? I'm wondering if this is worthwhile and really working as I expect... Thanks for your input.
Google will notice that the same domain/site is using two different AdSense accounts and investigate. That's not really very smart.
1) Absolutely not a good idea to open another account. Thats against google TOS 2) If you dont want to be hit by smart pricing, get quality traffic to your site. 3) Quality traffic means Search engine traffic. My suggestion stay away from social bookmarking. it gives you lot of traffic but smart pricing comes FREE with that.
