So you have an affiliate marketing website or a blog. You’ve spent long hours or maybe not getting it right. Adding good quality original content, making your website about cats or dogs useful to your viewers.
For what to have viewers leave your site as quick as possible by clicking on adsense ads.

Adsense is and can be a good income generator for you. And it plays right into the money for nothing mentality thats so ripe on the net today.
According to some research 14% of clicks are fraudulent. Are you going to continue to pay for clicks with that kind of click fraud. Maybe…..
Why not when you dont have to add value or content. Ie Splogs and all the newest rage in plr and instant adsense templates popping up all over the net now. All one needs to do is buy a template buy some plr ad their adsense to it and let it sit for someone to click on the ads.
Im sure this sort of marketing out rages the hard working affiliate marketer. As can be seen by the fact and numbers of advertisers
who are pulling out of ppc (27%).
I personally think it degrades the internet marketing name and internet marketers in general. As I mentioned above. Some of us hopefully lots of us work hard at our craft to find good content to provide for our readers and searchers. NOt to have them leave at first click. Think about it is that what you’re hinging your business on? That one click. I hope not.
I mentioned PLR articles above anyone even myself can use these… just reword it change the keywords and blammo you have original content. But do a closer inspection of these plr articles in the search how many time are the words going to appear in search. Do you want to get delisteded or hidden on page 1000 of google or what ever engine you optimize your website for?
Is it really any wonder that splogging got as bad as it did.
The fact still remains that you can make money on the internet but I would refrain from using adsense too heavily at this point.

Other revenue streams aside... Adsense is pretty much dead. Anyone who uses adwords and adsense knows theres a huge gap in between what an advertiser pays and what the publisher receives... HUGE gap, sometimes 75+% revenue for google for publishers hard work... make all the excuses you want for Google, "that just ain't right" Yea some people still make money with it, simply because there will always be new suckers investing 1000's into adwords to try it out, keeping the cycle alive a little longer. Trust me, I've used both since they started, it's just not worth it anymore. Google uses every little excuse to make sure they get a bigger % of the revenue, cancelling out multiple clicks (legitimate or not) is the worst of all... you see, if someone clicks on 4 links in your site, you will probably only get credited with 1 click (with comission taken out) and the other 3 clicks google gets paid for alone. I've seen it happen many times. Now, it would be one thing if Google was really suffering from invalid clicks, but even in their darkest days of being defrauded by scammers, they still made billions every quarter... are they starting their own Space program? Are they going to buy Romania? Knowing all of this, there's simply no need to take out so much commission. Christ, they could charge 1% commission on clicks, get everyone in the world to sign up and still make bilions, but instead, thanks to their practices, smarter publishers with halfway useful sites are starting to catch on and divest from Adsense/Adwords. Sorry adsense lovers. BTW, I still make $100+ with adsense every day, so I'm not a bitter "loser"
Adsense is still alive
Shane, everything in moderation, of course. Adsense is good as part of a balanced portfolio of income streams. But if your entire income is from Google I'd start building some other bridges.
The Death of Adsense is a catchy sounding name which is sure to drum up quite a bit of publicity and controversy. I've read the report and hope the second installment will be a little more forthcoming. Just when you think you're about to get some piece of useful info out of the report it ends with "to be continued". While once again aimed at stiring up emotions it does nothing to back up the strong statements made early on. I for one know what everyone other internet marketer knows, and that is "you get out, what you put in." If you expect to make hundreds of websites for the primary reason of getting Adsense clicks you'll be sorely disapointed with your results. If you take a little extra time to add unique content with your own website design you'll have far superior results. You'll then see that Adsense is very much alive!
Hello, I agree with most of your views. I am luckly one of the ones that got into Adsense after the Bids for Content Clicks were made changeable. I now know that Adsense is dead for more reasons that click fraud and competing ad markets. People went from a good 6k a month to nothing in the past 9 months here. I have just come across this tonight http://www.thedeathofadsense.com/cgi-bin/go.cgi/6944 Please read the information in the free ebook that explains some of what you have above and a little more. This is a very heartfelt ebook from one of us. http://www.thedeathofadsense.com/cgi-bin/go.cgi/6944 Thanks
It's really such a gray area. Although it is a informative article. Thank you
