lives easier? Don't you want to strangle this person on some
days??
I've found email to be both a blessing and a curse. I love the

Quality Beats Quantity Every Time
Back in the early days of developing my home based business, I
went for the big numbers instead of focusing on targeting

The Power of Viral Marketing
Copyright 2005 Peter Dobler
When I first heard of the term Viral Marketing I thought
immediately of a virus. No, not the flu, a computer virus. I
avoided viral marketing like the plaque. I'm sure many of you
are doing the same thing. Every...

Adsense Sandbox?
Is my site in the Adsense sandbox?
Does it even exist? It could be I have evidence.
A few months ago I saw a spike in traffic to a site of mine.
This site has real-time visitor stats available including the IP
origin of all visitors on the site. It's easy to lookup the IP
and see where the traffic originated. When I did this I
discovered that the traffic was coming from Google Inc. At one
point over a few days I had 20 visitors together on the site all
from Google HQ.
This continued over a few weeks, although the number on site
from Google simultaneously never matched the 20 again, I
witnessed a steady hit rate throughout each day, some days
reaching 10 or so Google HQ visitors at one time. But mostly
they would pop up in 2's and 3's.
I still get these visitors... checking the site now and there is
at least one Google employee on the site, there may be more. I
recognize this one IP at least without checking.
It became obvious that my site was being watched and monitored
by Google staff. I said hello via the sites broadcast system
once or twice just for the fun of it. :)
Anyway, again a few months ago a trend began which involved
placing images near your Adsense ads to catch the visitors' eye,
in the hope that they would then read the ads nearby and click
through. I believe I was one of the first to have these images
up and running and this could be what got me spotted by Google.
The result of all this was two fold.
First of all, Google has been doing some serious 'messing' with
the display format of my ads. With a few Adsense blocks on a
page I find more often than not many are disabled in favour of
the leaderboard only across the top of the pages. But then much
of the time the leaderboard will display just 1 or 2 Adsense ads
rather than the usual 4.
This is fine; they're optimizing my ads for better CTR(Click
Through Rate), great. But that's not all they're doing, they're
tweaking the display of my ads
in an annoying way. Every single
Adsense ad has a thin black border around it. This is not
configurable in the code at my end but something that Google
have added at their end.
This wouldn't be so bad but for the Adsense ads that they don't
display still having this thin black border.
Essentially I finish up with pages that have big black squares
or rectangles of empty space where the Adsense ads should be.
Which is obviously not good for the look of the site especially
if this is on an empty square ad in the middle of the page copy.
I've been watching this happen now for around 6 weeks.
The other, much better, upshot of all this is that following the
Jagger update Google have really got their teeth into this site
and started to throw lots of traffic at it from across their
world network. I see visitors from Google searches in India,
Norway, Germany, Auz, Arabia etc. Which is great. The monitoring
has definitely had a positive effect.
My conclusion is that I popped up on the Google radar, they
monitored me, and continue to, but decided that the site wasn't
breaking any TOS and more importantly it wasn't a spam site.
I hope to see them drop those black borders soon, surely it
can't be helping the CTR on the Adsense?
Take a look at those borders here - www.how-to-make-m
oney-online.info
So it seems that popping up on the Google radar isn't such a bad
thing. I certainly appreciate the extra site traffic. :)
