Are You Breaking the Google Law?
If you're advertising using Google's revolutionary AdWords service, then you'll no doubt be aware of Perry Marshall's "The Definitive Guide to AdWords" which is an absolute "Workshop Manual" for getting the very best AdWords results! But did you know that if you're promoting someone else's hard work as an affiliate, you could be breaking the law of Google?
Put quite simply, Googles policies outline what you can and can't advertise on AdWords, but few of us are tenacious enough to read Google's Policies on the AdWords site.
Many of us are using some kind of Affiliate membership to bring in the extra dollars each week, and while that's a perfectly legitimate (and sensible) thing to do, Google frowns on anyone duplicating or using a site which bears a remarkable resemblance to your Parent Site (the one you belong to as an Affiliate). Worst case scenario . . . . Google could terminate your account - and that's REAL bad news, especially if your main income is from affiliate membership sites!
Many Internet companies, have jumped on the bandwagon in recent years to offer great commissions in return for you selling their products, so the obvious way to get the message out there to earn your commission is by using the most popular marketing tool currently available - Google Adwords.
Simply enter your name in the affiliate membership signup box and hey presto - http://www.allthemoneyyoucanmake.com/superaffiliateIDhere1234.html - is yours to do with as you wish. The problem is that it's identical to the main homepage of the company too! Googles spiders will eventually find the two sites are identical and politely remind you of their policies . . . . if you continue to breach their rules, you'll almost definitely be banned from holding a Google account in the future.
What can you do to ensure you stay on the right side of the Law of Google? Simple, just create a simple landing page which is relevant (a great word in the Google Dictionary) to the site you'd like to promote as an affiliate - this could be in the shape of a article outlining the benefits of buying product XYZ, or even (if you're so inclined) a nicely designed, purpose built page from which your potential customer can click through to your affiliate site.
Build your keyword list, create a killer ad, enter YOUR web site address (landing page), and start pulling in the money!
Now you'll be within Google's policies, and safe forevermore.
Long live AdWords!
Good luck!
