How to catch the MFA ?

    Lets say I want to stop those useless MFA (Made for Adsense) Websites from showing their ads on my site. How can I find out what MFA sites show ads on my site ? I think I know how to stop them which is by using the Competitive filter, but I need to know them first to and then block them

    Even though you can create a competitive filter, these sites are a little ahead of the game (I know because I run a couple). Usually the domains are switched and affiliates are hired which have their own redirect links straight from their pages. This makes it tough to block out individual website domains. It's up to Google to stop these sites but as you know the large majority of the adsense market is MFA sites. I don't want to be a hypocrite, but I hate them too :)

    first you have to observe the ads appearing on your site and make a link of them. Then you have to go to those sites individually and block if you find any MFA, but, that has a limitation. You can only filter the ads targeted to your region.

    You'll have to know their URL and then ad them to your Adsense Competition Filter

    You can get the URL without clicking your own ads..

    Just go to that URL, if it is a search engine or a parked page or a 1 page mini website then block it, its probably MFA site.
