Adsense and forwarding

disruptive · 30-09-2011, 09:54:16 AM

Instead of parking for a while, I have forwarded many of my domains to just a single address - I use heart internet do a simple URL forwarding. However I think that I'm penalized as I'm getting nowhere near the CTR and wonder if Google is discounting traffic that is directed from other URLs. The traffic still seems visible.

What do people recommend? Is likely a problem?

Google may take a dim view of it tbh mate, they have banned people for it in the past. Although it depends what type of site you are diverting them all to.

For example if you divert all your domains to a site selling your domains then that is one thing. If you have diverted 700 general names to a payday loans site, then they will kick off with you and ban you for it.

So might be worth just being careful over it.

Is there a smart way of forwarding domains? So far no issue with banning, but concerned that the revenue is not being counted from the forwarded domains.

Shouldn't you be using Adsense for Domains to do this. You could end up getting both your domains banned from Google index and also losing your Adsense account.

not sure what you're asking here - you can forward each domain to wherever you want. and how better to know the target market/area then the owner?

if you mean via coding then you'd still have to code the script to forward to whatever domain you want based on some trigger that you identify.
