Made For Adsense Sites : The Death of an Outdated Business Model ?

Really maybe my question should be was it really ever a legitimate business model in of itself ?

Many people have and still do proclaim it as a wonderful way to make a living .

I personally, know of numerous huge sites/blogs that still rely on Adsense and Adsense alone for their total income.

Prudent ?? I do not think so.

I have always loved Adsense from the very beginning. It is the simplest and easiest way to start putting some change in your pocket when first starting out in IM.

I remember quite a few Warriors 3 or 4 years ago who sold WSOs on how to build an Adsense Empire and business.

A couple of these so called 'Adsense Gurus' had hundreds of these MFA sites. I remember one had over a 1,000 sites.

There were also numerous threads started here at Warrior which served as journals for people trying to build MFA sites and how they progressed over a period of time.

Many were doing good back in the day. Really good !

I must admit at the time I was interested in this and possibly making money from doing it. But through time and experience I came to my senses and realized it was just excess garbage on the Web.

I am just wondering with Google's constant updates in their Algos and their ever scrutinizing eye over Adsense accounts how these Adense Gurus are doing today ??

What do you think ?

BTW, I still think Adsense is ONE awesome way to monetize a Site.

But because of the nature of Adsense ( and the Internet) trying to make it a full time business with no other diversity will more than likely be futile for most anyone !

Just my 2 cents.

What do you all think ?
