Google Ad Prank ( How to Morph Images,Links and Ads )

google_ad_prank1.PNGWhen browsing over the internet, You get to stumble upon some interesting things. This is which i have come across not in any other site but in mine ( hem.com.np ) . just happened to see a Gooogle ad on my site which was kinda interesting so just wanted to check it . When i clicked on the Ad it took me to the page which proved to me that the site was specially made for Adsense. And the “Made for Adsense” site had put its ads through Adwords, How pity.I recently heard about Google is trying hard to prevent “Made for Adsense” sites .

Still it seems to me that Google is not over with this task yet. Just have a look at the Ad or the site which appeared on my site in above screenshot.

As you can see in below screenshot, you can easily find out what the website is all about. you can’t easily recognise which are the ads and which are actual website internal links . The Images , Links and Google Ads are morphed in such a way that a Adsense user who knows what are the Google ads ( take me as an example ) has to spend some time finding out which are Ad link and website links. Click here to see the site in action.

    Pretty sneaky of them, but what’s the benefit? They still have to click links to get paid right? I’m a little confused..

    And I bet this is not gonna help them.
    I am sure that they wont get anything from a user who knows adsence . for example, I am not gonna see that site back no matter how good the content on the site is.

    That site will surely get banned, it’s only a matter of when. Google will catch wind of that and crush them.

    That’s a great prank idea. It sure beats the office pranks and senior prank ideas.
