Creating a spammers forum
 
Somone gave me the idea yesterday when they posted the thought had crossed their mind.

In theory, If I created a forum that was IE an entire site that was open to spamming could it generate cash from google? Anyone forsee any problems with such a set up?

What would keep your users coming back, though?

I'm not interested in human users.

This is the idea, create a site have all new posts tweeted and open the flood gates so no human verifaction and let the spammers run riot.

Plaster the site in as much Adsense content as possible. This would be just to see if I could create some revenue.

A few years ago i had a test phpBB2 forum installed on my server, about 4 years later i found this installation when cleaning up my directories. The forum had 120,000 posts and thousands of members all non-human spammers lol

Did you have ads set up on the forum?

Interesting theory... do spam bot software 'view' ads? If they work like a search engine spiders the ads would never load, therefore no credit.

Links to bad domains will easily be spotted by google and you could be banned from google without even realizing it

pant 08-18-2010 04:32 PM

I'm willing to give it a go on a spare domain I have.

Would be curious if it could work... even if it could only bring in $10 a month after expenses there's no reason you couldn't setup 100's of them.

They will ban you. They banned us on two separate occasions on 2 legitimate sites with no virtually no spammer traffic, bad links, or otherwise.

They took about $2000 that we had earned over several slow years of earning pennies per day.

They gave no specific reason, just closed the account, took the money and said that we were suspect to tying to commit click fraud or some other bullshit excuse. Why bother for a couple of cents per day?? If we were trying to rip them off we would want dollars per day!

They are horrible, I will never run their ads again.
