    Hi All,
    I know some of you are already scratching your head thinking, WTF??
    but read on and let me explain.

    I am working on a site that has content and plenty of it, however the problem is the content is not text based but rather code based.
    I know from experience with other sites that if I do apply with one, it will get rejected for no content for sure.
    I understand I need to have some text in there so Gbot and Adsense can work out what ads should be put in place and I am already doing this
    however i dont want to start writing text content for pages that people are not there to read,
    Im thinking that I can generate stats etc, to offset some of it but I really don't want to stuff junk in there just to appease the Gbot

    So what I am asking is,

    1) What is Content to google if it is not text
    2) have you ever encountered similar problems with sites that have no text based content
    3) if any of you guys out there have sites that have adsense and listings of non text based content e.g images, downloads etc (not movies).
    and if so how did you generate enough content (and what type of content) to offset the googlebot's need to crawl text and not get dup pages.
    4) Or how many words constitutes enough for content.
    5) Alternative to Google where the email reply is not a bot.
    6) Any Ad companies that dont mind placement in web based applications.
    7) What is the least amount of time for a new site before you got Adsense approval.

    If any of you guys have links to other sites or ideas that would be great
    Thanks Heaps
