Is having Mirror Website Violates TOS?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by part time jobs, Nov 15, 2007.

    I have created 10 webpages and have adsense on it.

    I need to host this 10 webpages with different domain names.

    Say for example, yourname.50webs.com

    nametwo.sitesell.com

    namethree.freewebs.com


    Having same webpages with different domain names violates TOS?

    NOTE: I dont care about SEO ranking.

    Doesnt matter if it hurts SEO. Just point out whether it violates TOS

    I think it will hurt you in terms of SEO for duplicate content.

    Yea, having a mirror website will more than likely get your website banned from google's search engine.

    He never asked about seo or getting banned from google.

    If you arent sure best to email adsense team, they are always pretty fast to reply back on questions and can tell you for sure. I dont see any problem with what you want to do but best to check.

    Uhh, forgetting about SEO and crap, this SHOULDN'T be against AdSense TOS. We have THOUSANDS of users copy pasting websites here. So, duplicate content / articles / etc. shouldn't be against TOS, especially if it's YOUR unique content. The motto is when in doubt, ask the AdSense team, but I see nothing wrong with this.

    Not even going to bother getting into SEO since OP clearly said he doesn't care.

    I have made 12 sites with a very SAME content, and I'm doing adsense nice with that. However, since I link all 12 sites to my main site (with diffirent content), it pulled the rank of my main site lolz, that's fun! Traffics from google is still growth but not worth. Now when I think it about, I'm doing a nonsense thing.

    It apparently does not violate TOS. It's just kinda nutty.


    You might want to change a few words here and there; couldn't hurt.

    Having a mirror website will get you banned from google's search engine and hence low visitors :)

    If you don't care about SEO or getting banned by search engines for having duplicate content, what TOS are you concerned about:confused:

    And why would you want to do that, if you don't care about SEO? How will you get the traffic that will click on the ads?

    OIC, you are worried about Google Adsense TOS.

    Googles Adsense policies and guidelines can be found at

    https://www.google.com/adsense/supp...ww-et-asui&medium=link&gsessionid=BzFz_VEzweM

    http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769

    I could not find anything against creating multiple sites with duplicate content there. Maybe you are the first;)

    After giving this some thought, Adsense was created by Google to expand their advertisers reach. Having Adsense on different sites under different domain names, does just that. It expands the advertisers network.

    But google and most other major search engines do not like duplicate content and will ban your sites for that. Since that does not bother you as you might have your own promotion methods, I don't see any problem. Correct me if I am wrong.

    sounds to me like he's creating mfa sites, so he will probably be paying for traffic.

    i don't think that multiple copies of the same site are a violation of the adsense tos.
