Its putting several adsense publishers and webmasters to death. The reasons are : 1. Adsense advertisers are becoming increasingly demanding, in terms of ROI. Advertisers are hiking bid prices to get high exposure and number of clicks. But all these clicks may not convert well, because their products / services are not of top quality; There are similar products or services offered by established companies; Their websites doesnt have the mechanism to capture leads; They are mirror sites of well known sites; etc. In such a scenario, advertisers keep on increasing their bid prices without actually getting any substantial results and they complain that their ads are not targeted properly. The context matching isn't 100%. Then Google looks for a few scapegoats, cancels their adsense accounts and refund a few dollars to the advertisers. A simple solution from a search giant. 2. Invalid clicks: Google or any other PPC giants have their own interpretations of an invalid click. Perhaps any click that doesnt result in a sale / newletter subscription is an invalid click. I often see an ad sevaral times. I click it once read it. It sounds interesting, but it isnt necessary for me. That ad appears again, then I again click it to learn more but I dont buy. I began to explore similar sites for more info on thet topic. I see this ad again, the 3rd or 4th time, I might buy or join their newsletter. all 4 clicks are from me, I have eventually signed up. Does all this mean that clicks no 1 and 2 are invalid?. 3. Lets take a look at another situation. Sevaral affiliates promote the same program. Say A, B , C and D are promoting the same product using different URLs and ads. They have about 10 ads together. I frequently click on them because all of them look different but offering the same service. I click on all of them over a few days and finally buy it from D. In total there are 10 clicks, only D got profit. A, B and C have paid for their ads. Its almost arbitrary and random. On the top of it, all the 10 clicks has produced just 1 sale. This is the result of over exposure of the same product. Some affiliates lose money. And they began to experiment with their keywords, ads and bid prices that again puts the pressure on the publishers. 4. I have an info product. I offer 75% commissions to my affiliates. And I signup thousands of them. If the product converts 1:20, they can make profits. And they all began to do advertising. If someone searches the internet thoroughly, most often than not, one can find my info product listed for a free download somewhere within a few weeks of its release. Or the initial buyers share it among their friends. While the potential buyers are getting it for free or finds it listed on ebay for $1 or $2, then why do they buy from me or my affiliates?. All those affiliates who are coughing up money for ads are left with no sales. The google solution is to list these free downloads on the top of its search results, because they are well optimized and well connected. This is the problem when a search engine with good intentions, tries to cash in on its indexing, there are bound to be some conflicts. Its also worth noting that whenver the bid prices soar and there are not enough returns for advertisers, google began to look for scapegoats. Otherwise its happy with volume of clicks it gets on its system. A lot of activity there. Anyway, its still a great place to make money, but not for all. Either you join a guru's program or get some insider secrets to cash in with google. If you dont have such information, it leaves you with no money. Adsense wasn’t dead. Its putting several adsense publishers and webmasters to death.
