Google Is The Most Amazing, Smartest, Search Engine EVER! And… Why They “Hate” Affiliates.
Jeremy wrote an amazing post about his hatred for SEO.
I highly recommend you check it out.
The basis for the article is all centered around Google making sure they keep their image of the biggest, the best, the most advanced, on top of it search engine. If they ever fail to keep this image, their revenue is gone because people can go to some other search engine.
Why do you think Google is going on a slap fest with all these affiliates?
I think probably because when a specific offer (such as Acai) converts better than all the others, affiliates jump on the band wagon and take up all the results listings.
Just think how it looks to have all 10 sponsored results on google be for the same product. It looks pretty terrible right? Sure, they can outbid all the other advertisers because it converts so well, but how does this make Google look?
It messes with their image.
That is why I think it’s so difficult to be an affiliate in Google. Like I mention in my free affiliate marketing guide you must provide the user with a unique, VALUE driven experience.
Slapping up some thin 2 page website like 9 other affiliates in the top 10 rankings was essentially really terrible for Google’s image. Was it a good move? Yes. Are they taking it to the extreme? Maybe…
Once you understand this, you will understand how to make huge money in Google. Just quit making them look stupid and serve up something of value to the visitors and monetize it as much as possible. It’s not like you’ll be competing with the old type of landing pages (at least for long…).
This game is all about learning to adapt…
Again, check out Jeremy’s article and think about VALUE when making your next Google site.
