Read article at http://www.makemoneyonlinewithseo.com Article has following content: The future is changing folks and it’s time to adapt and evolve. It’s pretty clear from Google’s actions that the Adsense/Google search team is on the rampage to clean up the SERP’s. Any site that remotely looks like an MFA site is likely to get tossed out of the index and the owner’s adsense account banned.
Could be word/ad ratio. Mind you I know plenty of legitimate news outlets and even regular websites that have outrageous amounts of ads on them. Plus even though MFA obviously is adsense, what about if it is ads from other providers.
some harsh information, what does he mean by not hosting sites on the same hosting. I have two sites on the same hosting would it be a problem with google adsense, btw they aren't mini sites either.
This issue has been floating around since the born of AdSense and yet some peoples still make money and prosper....
True, that is what google is doing now since they would like to provide more quality traffic to the advertiser That's why many people get banned by google nowadays
Yes, I think same with you, Google will read whole site and its quality or unique content. Every unique content, google will aprreciate it..
I think it depends on the content. If it's informative and converts well for Google they aren't going to care. That article was more about how this person was telling people how easy it was to make tons of MFA sites on Blogger and Google found out about it. http://makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com/2010/04/making-money-online-in-2010-facelift.html Anyone thinking they can get away with spamming and cheating to get high page rank on Google better think again. Micro niche sites are fine as long as you provide unique content that is helpful to the person that visits your sites. The key is to add a few unique articles to it every now and then and keep only one Adsense ad unit on a single post.
It is possible to target micro niches within a larger project. Sure, it takes more time to build those sites but it is harder to come off as a spam factory when your sites are multi-layered and are of some value to the surfers.
This is GOOD. Tired of writing create unique content and finding it copied with article rewriters like WP-Robot in MFA blogs earning more than we do. The less MFA, the better, as long as Google does not raise the bar to a point where all the best ads go only to websites with gazillions of visitors. As long as they manage to identify true quality content, I am good with this.
This outcome has already been predicted ever since the rise of the so called xfactor method. When too many people are doing the same thing and making lots of money, Google will step in and look at their whole system once again. Google aren't stupid and stop trying to game the system. It would be better to build large authority sites with unique content and you can sleep tight through the night without having to worry about getting ban or stuff like that. Although the 5 page niche site approach is still viable for now as long as you provide unique and useful content, it will now take you a lot more time and effort to rise in the SERPs. If you are keen into IM, adapt to the changes and stop looking back.
This isn't new. Google has been threatening to shut down mini sites for quite awhile, but what do you know - we're all still here making money I think it's lip service. Google gets paid extra for mini sites, since they get all of Adwords profit and a cut of Adsense clicks - they just have to make it sound like they care about cutting spam and providing the best results. Granted, good, unique content is now, always has been and always will be the best way to go
Im sure they do police the sites but im not sure they are shutting down just made for adsense sites really, it would be difficult to set out a standard really.
