Google Adsense Good for SEO?
-
Is there any merit to the statement that Google will give some SEO value to sites that display Adsense? Or is there absolutely no SEO value for or against a site that displays Adsense Ads?
Clearly, it would benefit Google's finance to give at least a small boost to sites that display Adsense, but do they do it? My guess is no, but I'm wondering ...
-
Well, yes, it makes sense that perhaps they would have a reason to give a boost to a site that could earn revenue for them. But I believe at this point it remains speculation.
-
OK I take it back.
Adsense must be good for SEO - and for keeping a site alive.
Google continues to send me alerts on various subjects.
at least 30% of the sites they report are outright garbage.
He one they reported to me today was in a report several months ago.
I never expected to see that automated garbage site again, but here it was!
Way to go, google.
-
I would say that no, there's no merit to it. This would place Google in an easily provable anti-trust situation which is more of a headache then they likely want to take on at the moment.
-
It may benefit their finances, but I don't believe it has any SEO value at all.
Google certainly wants you (and overtly encourages you) to use all of their products - maybe so they can track everything you do - but SEO value, no.

Best place to submit an SEO RFP? Anyone interested in 60 hours of SEO work?
I have a small SEO project (~ 60 hours of work) that I would like to get some help with. It is spread out over the span of 4 to 6 months (2 to 3 hours of work a week with the help of 10 - 15 support staff hours per week), and if it goes well there is an opportunity to extend the project through the rest of 2014. Does anyone here want to see the RFP or have any recommendations on where I can submit this request to get the maximum exposure? Thanks!

Clickable links in Google SERP
Hi, I came across clickable links appearing below the meta description in Google SERP. The links are not necessarily the top pages for that particular domain and sometimes tend to reflect the newly added stock. Is there a way to determine what factors account for this? Thanks, mryxN.png
