Google seem to be on the warpath and hell-bent on destroying the livelihoods of many website owners.</p><p>One thing that is blindingly obvious is that Google is on an ongoing mission to clean up the SERP’s and is taking no prisoners. This means that some of us will be caught in the cross-fire even though we try out best to provide good content.</p><p>What this means is a massive drop in earnings for many of us and lots of head scratching on why it has happened, and more importantly, what to do about it. <span
id="more-637"></span></p><p>The trouble is, the new algorithm will consist of a multitude of unknown factors so it&#8217;s very difficult to determine what is happening. Is it the number and quality of backlinks to a website, on page SEO, quality of content, too many affiliate ads or what?</p><p>One webmaster could have one experience and another could have a completely opposite experience. Their websites might look similar in many respects but they will be different in some critical elements. The only way to find out is to make small changes then see what happens.</p><p><strong>Made-for-adsense Sites</strong></p><p>I am sure one big reason for Google’s new algo change is due to so many people churning out MFA sites in their thousands, clogging up the index and offering a poor user experience, which is something that Google hates.</p><p>Any site that remotely looks like an MFA site is likely to get deindexed or drop like a stone in the rankings. MFA sites looks like they are being hit hard and when found the owner’s adsense account is likely to be banned.</p><p>Not only that, when anything like this becomes too saturated it no longer becomes effective anyway.</p><p><strong>Sites with Crap Content</strong></p><p>I have lost count of the number of blogs I have some across with articles that have been mashed up from various sources and make absolutely no sense. They are so ridiculous they can actually be quite funny to read at times. They will definitely fail any human reviewer however. No one will miss them anyway, apart from the owners.</p><p>The thing is, if you want to keep in Google&#8217;s good books it&#8217;s time to get back to basics and give your website visitors and Google what they really want, good original content, not spun and rehashed nonsense. It’s hard work if you write it all yourself, and the results might not be immediate but it usually pays off in the long term.</p><p>When all is said and done, the new Google algorithm will have a lasting impact on many of us. It’s just part of a constantly changing internet and you have to change with it whether you like it or not. Those that don&#8217;t will disappear down the internet memory hole forever.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://digitalzips.com/google-rankings-dropping/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Prosperent Serves Up Targeted CPA Advertising</title><link>http://digitalzips.com/prosperent-serves-up-targeted-cpa-advertising/</link> <comments>http://digitalzips.com/prosperent-serves-up-targeted-cpa-advertising/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 01 Apr 2010 19:30:30 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Internet Marketing News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Adsense]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Affiliate Advertising]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Beta Testing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Commissions]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cpa Advertising]]></category> <category><![CDATA[prosperent]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Publishers]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Search Engine]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Targeted Advertising]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Traditional Ads]]></category><guid

Yes, I know you hear of those people who make thousands a month with Adsense on their blogs but for every one of them there are thousands who only make a few cents, if that.</p><p>But what if there was something easier, something that worked dynamically and automatically which serves up ads that are highly targeted?</p><p>Well now there&#8217;s a brand new platform for dynamic affiliate advertising which serves up highly targeted ads to your visitors. It&#8217;s called Prosperent and it looks like it&#8217;s going to be a winner. <span
id="more-625"></span></p><p><a
href="http://prosperent.com/ref/215017">Prosperent Website</a></p><p><strong>This is how Prosperent works&#8230;</strong></p><ul><li>Someone Visits Your Site From a Search Engine</li><li>Your Placed Ad Code Generates Targeted Relevant Products…</li><li>You Earn Commissions on Resulting Sales!</li></ul><p
class="alert">The beauty of Prosperent ads is the fact that they don&#8217;t look like traditional ads. You can integrate them into your content and page design which encourages people to click and explore the ads.</p><p>Although it&#8217;s fairly new, and they have just come out of the beta testing phase, you will find that it&#8217;s pretty amazing already, and they&#8217;re adding new features to it all the time to help converting your traffic even better. What I like about the people behind it is that they really listen to their publishers so that they can make it even better&#8230;</p><p>Having feedback from actual users is a great idea don&#8217;t you think? This is the kind of thing I am talking about&#8230;</p><p
class="alert">&#8220;&#8221;Thanks to all of the beta participants, we have tons of great feedback that we have been going through. In the coming weeks we will be rolling out new analytics, new fall back ad options, as well as extensively tweaking our algorithms to increase the relevancy of all of our ads&#8230;. We&#8217;ve got the XML API slated for the next release. We will also be rolling out a couple new features at the same time. The release AFTER that one has some new ad types that will blow you guys away&#8230;&#8221;<a
href="http://prosperent.com/ref/215017">Prosperent Website</a></p><p>I am giving this a trial on a few of my sites to see how it goes. It&#8217;s very easy to create ads, and all you have to do is put a small piece of code on the page and the ads will be showing almost immediately. Another good thing is that you can set it to fall back on Adsense if it can&#8217;t find any of it&#8217;s own ads to show so you won&#8217;t be losing money with empty adspace.</p><p>This is your chance to be in on the start of something big like Adsense was back in the day.</p><p>It won&#8217;t cost you anything to sign up so why not give it a try too?</p><p
class="alert">&#8220;Prosperent is going to be one of those things that everybody is using in a couple years and you are going to kick yourself for not trying it sooner.&#8221; <a
