Earning from AdSense Using the Search Engines of the Year
It has become my habit to check out my blogs’ Akismet’s Spam section. Although I find it a stressing habit, it still is worth my time because if it weren’t for this compulsive Akismetted comment checking habit, I’d lose some of my clients.
This spam checking extends to my e-mail spam inbox or junk mails. And just today I thought I again discovered a gem from my junk mail box because of this e-mail title:
Search Engine of the Year
I am not so scared of opening e-mails because I trust the Anti-virus software of my e-mail service provider. So, I opened it hurriedly, expecting I’d be shown Google or some meta-search engines I’ve grown to love like Dogpile.
Instead, this is what the e-mail content I read:
Hello, These are the search engines of the year 2006: 3 URL’s I won’t link to.
I tried one of the search engines of the year and saw this:
And yeah, you guessed it right. It’s a spam search engine because if you try to search for any information using it it will only show AdSense ads.
I’m sure you’ll tell me that you didn’t see that coming. (Rolling my eyeballs!)
But the thing is how ingenious the AdSense publishers have evolved to!
If you’re asking what’s the moral of this post?
You don’t see much spam this ingenious this often. Or am I just that spam-illiterate?
Seriously, I just presented this lesson in the hope that you’d learn more of the ways of the AdSense uber-leeches. Now how do you report such abuse again?

Hi,
Could you educate me about getting links? You seem to be the right person to ask. Also how does checking spam mail help?
Thanks,
