i like that, whats the problem? everyone wins, the advertise gets customers, google gets the money and the publisher too of course. in this case even both publishers.
I can't imagine Google will ban such people as Seodude says, everyone wins, except the visitor of course, who may feel slightly cheated. Cheated visitors often begin to recognise these ads and perhaps stop clicking google ads altogether, which hurts everyone in the long run.
That site will be banned soon. According to the TOS you must have content on that each page and I seriously doubt a heading is what google called content.
this is not accurate. just surf google for any good high paying keyword and you will come accross lots of site like best8sites. top3sites and things like that only displaying 2 large rectangular banners on the page. Google is not taking very strit actions against them or these guys are creating new accounts by the minute to fool google and make money. i belive a lot of webmasters here are making money by arbitrage of kws. good or bad these technique are here to stay. just my 2 cents.
Google must be knowing very well about all this scrap...they will sit tight and earn money till someone makes this big issue and google starts to get heat. As someone mentioned it wouldn't take google 5-10 days to get rid of such adsense sites, till then they will let money roll in.
i agree with you on this. google has to present income figures every quater and most of it comes from ad revenues. So google keeps them till it gets out of proportions. now what is out of proportion is some thing that only google can answere. but to keep there image safe and clean they sometimes ban even genuiune webmaster for fraud clicks. money is the king. revenue is everything. shareholders need to see profits.
Unfortunately this is a big problem, and likely accounts for up to 20% of these "ads." Hopefully Google will ban these sites.
<rant> Honestly people, white hat takes you nowhere. I could get flamed for saying this but wth it has to be said. No one cares weather or not the visitors like it or not. Its the clicks and conversions and money. Heck! There's a whole black hat department about this, i believe, and is called landing pages. Not so blackish, but still a bit blackish. Oh, and no dont notify G. The whole G finance system is built on visitors clicking on ads. The more you click, the more G gets. So, wth will it care?? </rant>
