People that refer people in China to use the FireFox browser will no longer get paid. I guess Google Adsense does not make enough money for people referring Chinese people to Adsense. It must be a lot of users that use FireFox in China now when their Internet really is taking off.
Google Adsense will also lower the money you get from referring people to the Google Pack a collection of free software to 1 US dollar per download and correct install.
Still it’s a good deal the software pack that Google is offering is very good many people still does not have it on the computer.
A good way to make money to revenue each and every program in the Google free software pack in your blog and make a download link.
You still get 25 $ to refer somebody to Widgetbucks
Google Adsense is working hard these days to remind you that they want you to fill in a Tax form. I am sure the US government and other are on to them nagging about people not paying Tax for the Adsense income.
I do not think many people outside the USA pays tax for Google Adsense, maybe some big company but the small private people. It will be to much trouble to tell the Government the little income Adsense really gives you and what cost you have that you can deduct.
Since many countries have a open tax policy how can you tell the tax department and still not release you Google earnings?
As you know I have totally stop using Google Adwords content program. The last couple of reports I sent to Google Adword have not yet after 3 month gotten any answer or refund.
My sites were shown on Iraq, Albanian and other low paying countries with MP3 downloads. If I blocked the site the next week it was back with anther name. I also reported it to Google Adsense but they did not bother to ban them.
Sure Adsense have a strict no copyright policy but to get where they actually ban someone is so difficult. The owner of the lets say photo have to hunt down every website with that Photo and report it to AdSense. Then you have to prove you are the owner in a written letter to USA and much much more. It will take days for you to provide this info and only a hour for them to apply for a new Adsense account and new website copy and paste.
Google Adsense is loosing the battle with copyright they have to use some common sense sometimes.
Let take this sexy Thai girls website as an example, it is number one on Google for sexy Thai girls. The name is even something like scanned photos from magazines, off course he has no copyright he scan them from magazines. It is so easy for Google to ban him right but they don’t. With this attitude and lack of interest they might sound tuff but they are loosing the battle.
