Intentionally?
Also, remember how I was setting up a new site and moving content there? Do you remember one of the reasons why I was doing that?
Well, Google approved the site for AdSense the first time around. I had the same damned type of content on the old site and applied 6 times - and every time they denied me. It may have actually been 8 times, I lost count.
I'm convinced it was because it was on a .gq domain.
It's the same fucking content on both sites. It's even the same goddamned theme and CMS (WordPress). It's got the same damned features, as well.
what the hell is wrong with .gq?
You can get .gq domains for free, so they're considered 'spammy' or 'low-rent' districts of the 'net.
I didn't realize the penalty was so strong, or I'd have just started with a different (paid) domain name.
However, the domain name I used on .gq was a paid domain name. I could have had it for free, but it's paid for. In fact, I paid more for the .gq domain name then I paid for the .us domain name.
Either way, I've got AdSense on my site - finally. It was approved the first time I applied. I actually have LESS content than I had on the .gq domain, 'cause I'm moving it over slowly, an article at a time.
Google says they're all about the content. The content and the experience (and links) are what they SAY is the most important.
Bullshit.
I had more content, a greater experience, and more links to the .gq domain.
No, no... She broke it with her pelvis. I'm pretty sure it's broken. This isn't the first time I've had my nose broken. I'll survive and it was worth it.
We put the rest of the break-in miles on the 718 this morning. 400 miles and so far so good. Well, it's more like 450 miles now.
LoL Awesome!
