Perfect example of what NOT to do...

[drenlow]

I was surfing the 'net as usual when I came upon the perfect example of what not to do when using Google Adsense.

Remember...content is king!

I guess that would make this site worse off than the Joker!

If your site looks like this I HIGHLY recommend you change it before you lose your Adsense account.

lol

well those adverts look targeted lol :rolleyes:

My goodness... "Results from other sites on the Internet" with Google ads right underneath.

"Creating the future of search. Find it now!"

I must say, it's an interesting idea. You type in a keyword and dynamically makes a page which may or may not have an RSS feed (without the hyperlinks) to propogate the page so Adsense Ads may or may not work contextually.

Of course a complete violation of Adsense policies.

Methinks TheCoach has already sent off a complaint to Adsense :)

Methinks TheCoach should change his name to ThePunisher :D

Me thinks you are right lol

im not a complete arsehole.. i just hate people who dont want to take the time and do things by teh book to make money

Now that's what I call an "internet spam site" if I've ever seen one. Nothing pisses me off more when I run a cross a site like that when I'm looking for information. It's wastes money and time. I can't believe the site turns much of a profit as I think most would quickly hit the back button!

it looks like its upto misleading the visitor and click on those links, i dont like the way it has been layout.

Best of luck getting digg4it deactivated. I came across that site 5 weeks ago and have reported it two or three times.

Google rarely cares anymore. They ban for blatant click fraud and not much else.

I went to check out the site and I don't know about you but what
I see it 5 links in the left hand at the bottom and the rest of the site
is blank!
Nothing, no google ads etc.. Did I miss it? I would of loved to see what
they were doing wrong.:p
I use FireFox browser.

[drenlow]

It's still up and running. If you just saw a blank page just picture Adsense Ad Blocks in the middle.

That's pretty much what it looks like. :D

ive recontacted google.. i cant believe they havent shut this down yet...

if any of us gets 1 suspicious click its goodbye account.. why not these

[Bjoerner]

The site seems to be down now. That will probably have nothing to do with Google but it's a start. ;)

[an52]

Site still up, Adsense and all.

[TheCoach]

recontacted google

Hi guys,

could i request that the mods remove all trace of the url from this thread ?

[benistheword]

Hi guys,

could i request that the mods remove all trace of the url from this thread ?Why ...

The site owner knows their spam site is violating AdSense's terms and conditions.

Seeing this thread isn't likely to give them a change of heart, particularly after all the work they've done setting up an automated scraper site and then 1000's of AdWord keywords to drive traffic.

[TheCoach]

Hi,

because i am going to get this site shut down 1 way or another + why should this forum drive traffic to their site

[benistheword]

The traffic it receives from here is hardly the kind of click-happy people they're looking for.

Best of luck getting it shut down ... it's about 6 weeks now since I started reporting it. Maybe you could work on http://goobot.com/ too - Google are either being apathetic or pathetic about that one as well.

have added it to my ever growing list lol
