I tried it few times with low value keywords but after few minutes, the ad stops running with poor quality score.

These kind of sites drive me insane because to put it simple, I get a visitor which I lose to a 1 cent click and then the site they find through the ad has more ads on it which makes that site more, I work hard for traffic and it angers me knowing I lose visitors to these MFA sites which are basicaly making money from the work I put in getting the traffic.

I agree that you may have to make your webpage look more “traditional” and less like an MFA page, but then wouldn’t your CPM drop since you aren’t highlighting the Adsense ads as much? I guess the blackhat way to do this would be to just keep signing up for Adsense accounts, basically as throwaway accounts. If you get banned, so what.

Hi SEO Reloaded. Thanks for visiting eMonetized.

I’d probably recommend against trying traditional Arbitrage to make money at this point unless you can manage to get a second Adsense account.

You could try and make the Arbitrage landing page look more like a traditional website with helpful content. Then just use one or two Adsense ads but in very prominent positions. In other words, don’t make it exactly “look” like an Arbitrage website and you might be ok.

I recently came across a few posts on several blogs and also discussions on forums that Google is banning Adsense Accounts for sites that use Adsense Arbitrage. (Actually not banning but closing). Do you still think it’s a good idea to do something like this?
