Web entrepreneur Dave J shared his observation regarding his AdSense sites that seem to be penalized by MSN and Yahoo!
"I run a couple of “white hat” adsense sites that (now) rank very in Google and earn in excess of $20 per day. Both of the sites started out well in MSN and then a few
months later picked up well in Yahoo with Google lagging well behind as seems to be the usual pattern these days.
I worked on the sites, improved the Google position markedly and also loaded adsense into the mix. Oddly, as the Google rankings continued to improve, the Yahoo and
MSN rankings dropped away rapidly - pretty much within a few weeks of adding adsense. I don’t see this trend across a number of other sites I run (without adsense).
I’m doing quite nicely from the Google hits but it would be nice to recover the progress in MSN and Yahoo.
Perhaps I’m overly cynical, SEO paranoid or whatever but it does seem odd that these sites demised in MSN and Yahoo very rapidly as soon as I included adsense.
Anyone else seen similar?"
Hmmmm. It's not impossible. But how dare they, right? Got a case like this, too?
