Google Cracks Down on AdWords Schemes

This is a good article from Revenue that I received via email. Talks about new adwords restriction in a specific niche. But here are something very interesting points. Check it out:

It seems as though Google has finally tired of the Google Money Tree offer and other AdWords get-rich-quick schemes and they are now telling many of the relevant advertisers that their ads will no longer be accepted.

The precise language that Google is using describes the banned ads as those that “promote a misrepresented affiliation with Google” and we assume it includes some of the deliberately misspelled ads we’ve seen that use terms such as Goolge, Goggle and Googlle

Be aware that Google is in some cases not just pulling the ads but is actually suspending advertiser accounts on a permanent basis so if you have been promoting these high-paying offers you’ll need to move fast to avoid problems.

There is a bigger picture here, which is that Google itself has been making good money off these ads for some time now, and if it were the subject of its own search algorithm, would probably have been punished in the SERPs for linking to scam sites a long time ago.

Finally, if by chance you have been using AdWords to promote your nice new startup company called Goolge, Inc., you’re really screwed.

    Advertising has always paid the money and who pays – it is also advertised. And the Internet is not a ban, what other mass media. Yes, a very popular search in Google. You can advertise a lot and in different browsers, search, otherwise, might have been popular, others less familiar. Everyone must choose for themselves prefer, and each seat has its own benefits. Mistakes can be for everyone, as they say, is not a mistake, that nothing is done.
