Well, I don't want to have all my eggs in one basket. Google certainly doesn't for their earnings. Anyway, I have a set of different category websites ready to lift off but I don't want adsense on them in case Google somehow thinks the traffic is unusual and decides to cancel it. Who knows at some point traffic could spike & stay constant due to finding the holy grail. So, I read some of the threads on Adbrite stats and earnings problems, & folks leaving them. i read that Bidvertiser pays 30% of what Adsense does. So, who is left when it comes to sites on medical and legal subjects. Unless, it is perfectly legal for me to open a 2nd AS acct under a business name. which I have 2 names anyway but with same tax ID. AS rules make no sense especially when it is a different category website altogether. You just cannot group Apples and Grapes. Granny Smith, Fiji apples, Red Globe, Green seedless grapes, they are differnet for g... sake!! Your local newspaper, TV, radio lets you have several different accts. What's the real deal ? Di they like to have smart pricing drive earnings down due to one site not doing well, so it affects all the rest.? Hell, I wish some sour grapes in the produce dept. could affect the price of Kiwi or Mango prices in the supermarket. What happened to creating & optimizing "each webpage" to stand alone. Let the advertiser accts stand alone too. Or as a middle ground, let's keep 1 acct and if Google sees an issue in "1 specific group or website category" in that acct, ban that specific group not the whole acct. That makes more sense. No ? Oh, well too much ranting. I am still open to recommendations on alternatives w/o problems and pay at least 60% of what AS does.
