I seem to have stumbled across a kindred spirit on my prowls through the blogosphere: Enough With The Adsense!
I really really don’t see the allure of Adsense. Aside from a few of the most popular blogs, I doubt many of you are making very much from it, probably not even enough to pay for your [...]
Hmmmmmm.

Sorry ’bout the non-clickable.
GetPaid2Search.com allows users to make money by promoting their own Custom-Search-Engine (CSE) on Google.
Now it’s called Get Paid To Search, but it’s not an incentivized environment :roll:. See, although everyone earns more if everyone clicks on ads, you’re really not supposed to:
You will NOT be paid for clicking ads. Therefore, [...]
Since the BusinessWeek article came out several days ago, it seems the ’spies’ that are reporting incentivized parked domains are seeing a bit more success getting stuff shut down when they report them. The ringleaders aren’t too happy about it all though, and one is shouting out threats of Wiccan Retribution:
I HOPE YOU LAUGH SO [...]
Wow, this is exciting! Businessweek has a great article out on click fraud: Click Fraud - The Dark Side Of Advertising
Quote from Business Week:
That confidence may be slipping. A BusinessWeek investigation has revealed a thriving click-fraud underground populated by swarms of small-time players, making detection difficult. “Paid to read” rings with hundreds or thousands of [...]
Interested in reaching deep down into the bowels of the underground click fraud gangs? Wanna meet and hang out with who’s being paid to click on all those parked domain page ads and paid search engine results?
Take a look at what I’ve been tipped off on:

This thread is such a sad, pathetic, twisted [...]
I’ve been noticing blog and forum posts talking about their adsense earnings dropping. Sometimes the clicks are still coming in at a good pace but the price earned per click has dropped considerably.
I’ve talked about this here before but I think the noise is rising about income per click dropping, so I’ll mention it again.
Do [...]
I’m doing an odd thing lately and I’m not sure when or how it started. I’m pretty much adsense blind on websites so it’s not an issue there, but I do tend to notice google ads if I’m doing a search on Google.
Instead of clicking an ad that I want to visit, I’m grabbing the [...]
I received a note asking me why I wanted to stay away from adwords/PPC, adsense and the rest for growing my income online.
I won’t get into my distaste for adsense and my conviction that it’s going to burn a lot of webmasters in the end (opinion only of course) because I think it gets tiring [...]
I’m a big fan of Martha Stewart’s. Yup I am!
I think she’s a kick-butt business person and have followed her for years (I have a personalized autographed photo from her too! :lol:).
Not to mention every single Martha Stewart magazine (ok just up to year 2005–I’m running out of shelf space!).
But horror of all horrors, [...]
