Reported on Frank Michlick's blog, 'DomainEditorial.com'. Frank references the JenSense blog. Looks like Google is trying to scrub the most bush-league implementations that don't deliver any additional value to visitors. Still.. as competition and quality rises, today's high-brow becomes tomorrow's bush-league. Better to get your hands on a high quality generic domain so you have a fail-over

I wonder where this will take Adsense-based parking pages?

Very interesting.
Looking at the article a bit more it seems like this is more than just about arbitrage. Those running "Made for adsense" style sites without arbitrage also seems to be getting notices. I would think this would include alot of domainer/seo type people.
***FS*** Probably so Snoop. Will see.. I think the biggest keyword-to-keyword arbitrageurs will escape unscathed because the revenue (ad spend) is that important to Google.

Frank,
Do you think Yahoo will follow suit?

***FS*** Nope.. these are only for the little simple plays that use front door google adsense signups.. yahoo doesn't have such a product that I've seen.

I don't think a medium quality domain will be anything to go to town with if you are banned from Google.
Better to spend your money working on your website.
Or do both.
