I use AdSense on 1 of my websites and a while back I discovered some things about this service from Google.

One thing that I think is awful and shows how big corporates ONLY care about money was that I knew a website that was banned (black listed) by Google because they were “violating Google’s terms of services” by helping people buy and sell text link ads and now when I search for the name of the site, it doesn’t show up in normal search results. The messed up part is that this particular website bought AdWords ads and their name shows up in sponsored links section right on the top of the search results.

This means 2 things: 1 – Google doesn’t care much about what you do when you pay, 2 – You can BUY the first spot on Google SERPs!!!

What they could do is to check the URLs against their banned list but…

The other thing about AdSense is this: Have you ever clicked on an AdSense link with confidence? have you ever seen anything valuable in those links?
Many of them are links that take you to irrelevant pages and many of the people who buy these keywords have so much money that they want the traffic in anyway they can, by bidding on keywords that have nothing to do with their pages.

This could be very bad, you are sending your visitors away with AdSense in the first place, but sadly you are sending them to pages that are not good.

It’s unfortunate but it’s what it is for now.
