Just Got Google Policy Change Email... No More Rebills?

this is said for the affiliate industry all i say for this situation is This isnt going to be good !
 


I'm talking more about the general CPA RFT offers and their landing pages, not necessarily one affiliate landing page. They have to become compliant - or at least have an Adwords compliant landing page version.

Will this eventually trickle down into SERPs rank for organic pages pimping rebills? I'd hate to convert all my rebill LPs into legit CPS offers just so they will stay at the top of the SERPs.

It's already been done for organic listings...once they find them. I've had almost all of my income-generating LP's that were solely organic traffic get removed from the serps for this reason. Even ones that "looked" legit according to their quality regulations.
 
Does anyone have a sample of an offer page that is compliant with Google right now?

It would be important to see what actually meets those guidelines. I don't know for sure of course but one of the current UK offers from Azoogle could be compliant already: www.choyung.com since it states the billing and has an Opt-In to the TOS (on the second order submit page).
 
who cares.

affiliate sheeple

google != god (at least not yet. Don't use google wave and hopefully this will never come to pass)
 
Change to the Google's LP guidelines

obviously got pissed off with people saying "what about sites like nextag...big money talks...google screwing the little guy...etc"

not much to be happy about being an affiliate as quality is still a subjective view of some 3rd world $2/hour 'tard with a manual in his hands. i mean how the fuck do you determine a sites primary purpose when you're driving traffic from an ad?? of course its to sell something. i'm not buying the traffic for the good of the internet.

so add a paypal link to buy a $7 report? then add reviews of its competitors (with afil links)?



google is going to fuck itself big time here.. roll forward 6 months and the age of the shite report/ebook/plr has arrived with every man and his dog pimping there own crappily written product banged up in a day by indian. not to mention the forthcoming deluge of affiliate search aggregators lol

they should have just banned rebills and be done with it. products like truthaboutabs/abcircle/etc can't compete with jennycraig et al anyway.

most Netflix landing pages pass. But you can bet that advertisers will adapt their page to meet big G's standard so that they can still keep getting that traffic. I have spoken to 4 advertisers this week that would be willing to change their page to fit the requirements of certain platforms.
 
Yes, I've heard the same feedback from the bigger networks regarding their advertisers. Questions so far were how EXACTLY does it have to look like and secondly, are there any changes needed on the ADS. I.e. what about saying "free" as in "Get a free trial" or in domains like "freetrialdiets.com" ?
