AdSense In an Iframe? Clickbomb? Scam?
- SEO |
Hidden iframed ads is one form of misuse. The other is cross-domain iframing abuse. Cross-domain iframes are used to frame content from a different site. This type of implementation can allow other sites to frame ads that belong to another site without the publisher's knowledge. |
It is a big enough problem that Google changed their ToS so they would have a reason to send out an alert letting the guilty know they are on to this trick?
Then again, I don't get it. If someone wanted to do this to someone else, what action will Google take? If they put the iframe on a site not associated with AdSense, then what will AdSense do about it? They can ban the bad guy site as he has no AdSense account.
Or are there services out there that promise to increase AdSense clicks by putting someone else's ads on their own sites with high traffic?
I'm just interested in what the heck is going on here.
