    Guys, please see the picture below, and let me know if this is considered as an MFA or not?
    And would it be legal, according to google's TOS.
    (Please remember- the page has NO links, other than google ads)

    Ok, but will it be legal?
    will it not violate TOS? or get the account banned?

    Ok, this means, that the page would be "adsense arbitrage", but yet it would be legal, as "adsense arbitrage" is legal:rolleyes: ..please correct me if I am wrong.

    Thanks for hitting the hammer right on the head!:)
    Anyways..I thought MFA's violated the TOS, as they were made "for the purpose of showing ads":eek:

    I suspect that your statment is wrong

    Can you show any proof to me regarding google's policy regarding arbitrage?

    But all those arbitrage sites may not have been approved because of those arbitrage sites

    When you make a new site isnt one of the first things you do slap ads of some kind on it? Would you still make sites if you couldnt make money from ads? All our sites are made for the purpose of showing ads.

    Some people make sites for pure love - the money side is just a bonus. There are actually many blogs out there that could make hundreds if not thousands of dollars a month by their owners choose no to show ads on them.

    If you are worried about your site being seen as a a violation of Google's TOS the best person to ask is Google themselves - just send them an email. It's the best way to cover yourself whenever you are doing something that is a little "grey". So despite what everyone says here, just use them as a guide - and use Google as the final word on the situation.

    Anyway I think you will find that the page is within in the TOS if you ad more than JUST the Google links and the content. A couple of footer links won't hurt your CTR. LOL if you really want you can just link to your MFA pages... then you will have a network of MFA pages!
