Right off the bat I don’t have any problems with made for adsense sites…
Here’s the deal though…
I personally don’t go out looking to build made for adsense sites.
For me they just kinda happen.
I’ll go into a niche looking to establish authority and for whatever reason some people just don’t dig on the site or maybe they love the site but I can’t for the life of me sell them a damn thing so usually at that point I say “screw it.”
I bury the content… I post nothing but horribly rewritten Private Label Rights content that reads like gobbly gook and I cover the top half of the Blog or website with Adsense…
Like I said Adsense sites happen to me… I don’t go out with the intentions of building them.
And when I look at the made for Adsense sites that I have littered all over the internet I’m sorry but they look like arbitrage sites and that’s basically what they are…
Arbitrage sites.
But some of these not necessarily made for adsense sites have turned into some pretty good producers for me and it’s forcing me to think twice about whether or not the big G will ever find a way to filter out “white hat arbitrage sites” from their search engines because some of them have been indexed for quite some time now…
So are you engaging in white hat arbitrage?
Are you building made for adsense sites and targeting high paying keywords in smaller niches?
And are you at all worried that Google will one day slap the shit out of all of us and our online vending machines?
Like I said I have nothing against made for adsense sites and I’ll ride that wave until Google slaps me silly as well but I think you’d be foolish to not be building some real, content-based, authority-style sites that you’ll never have to worry about being de-indexed…
Just something to think about.
