Traffic Warning to Webmasters Using Adsense

Never Send the following traffic to your site:

  • Paid to Click. PTCs are sites where you can buy ‘clicks’ and the member gets paid between 0.1C to 2c to click a link. Clicks by the member are 99% blind as the member is more concerned with earning the money rather than the links content. You can buy ’search clicks’ which are clicks where the member is expected to click an advertisement. As you can understand. If the member is just randomly clicking an ad, then the advertiser is literally getting ripped off. Therefore google bans all PTC traffic.
  • Paid to Read. PTR is pretty much exactly like PTC apart from emails get sent to your inbox containing the links rather than you having to click links in your members area.
  • Autosurf (paid or free). Autosurf traffic is probably the most ‘blind’ traffic you can possibly receive or send (apart from 0-iframes but thats another story). Due to the vast quantities of traffic that can be sent to a site, google’s Paid per impression program is exploited. Therefore the advertisers get ripped off again. Your alexa.com ranking can be manipulated this way as well, which would result in your receiving more money for clicks on your PPC/PPI advertisements.

I am writing this to generally most newbie webmasters who want to monetize their websites or blogs and just haven’t had the time to read the T&Cs yet. Or a warning to those who are looking to get rich quick through click abitrage.

I have removed my adsense blocks today because there is some autosurf traffic coming from somewhere and i don’t really fancy getting banned like so many others have.

How to get ‘Adsense Approved’ really quick and easy

I was able to achieve ‘approved’ status on my google adsense account even before I had a domain and hosting. This quick, easy and free method uses a nifty website called blogger.com. They are owned by google so..

Here is how you can do it.

1) Signup to blogger.com then create and setup a blog

2) Either write a blog entry, or find an article at articlecity.com

3) After you have posted an article, you might notice that ’sign up to google adsense’ is literally spammed all over blogger. follow the link and fill in your details. Make sure not to use an email that has connections to google adsense

4) Your google adsense account should be verified within 48 hours!

Now you can use your google adsense ad blocks on any website and earn. Blogger is a great place to start earning money from blogging.

Enjoy!
