If I add a content blocker on my website, will it be bad for the SEO? Will Google understand it and give some penalties? And can Google index the content at all if there is a content blocker? (Talking about CPALead Gateway or something similar)

    As I understand it, a content blocker is a tool that hides the real content of your page, leaving only the ads. So you are hoping that the content will bring visitors to your site, yet will remain hidden from them. According to Google this is "cloaking" (showing one version of the site/page to the search bot and another version to your human visitors). This is seriously against Google's terms of service and will definitely get your site into serious Google trouble if Google can detect this. It does not begin to seem being worth the risk.
