A problem or two with people trying to extort money out of Google.
Adsense is a great CPC program run by Google. Simply put, you sign up with google and you get a code to put on your webpage and if people click on the ads displayed – you get money. Now these ads are all content based, so if your webpage is about photos, you’ll most likely get ads based on—you guessed it, photos.
Now here’s the problem: people are always trying to find a way to make the ads pick up high-paying keywords and therefore get money. If you’re reading this and thinking “Hey, I could probably do that” STOP NOW. Doing so will get you banned and therefore get you no money.
Recently I saw one of these ways on another website. I was browsing around and my cursor turned into the little I that means I’m mousing over text. So I wonder what that is and I highlight the whole page with Ctrl + A and see this shameless plugged into the page with the text the exact same color as the background.

And sure enough the ads reflect it. In case you’re wondering, Google’s a huge influence on the internet for a reason, they’re not stupid. They will find this one way or another. So if you have this on your website and are thinking about doing this, just don’t or you could possibly have your entire webpage taken off of Google’s search engine and others. This applies to you trying it to rank higher in different keyword searches as well.
