    Default Free inclusion - Are you biased?

    There are some sites that when I see in my free submission site this days I don't even bother to review them, I just delete them straight.

    The two kind of sites I have a crusade against at present are:

    Loans websites
    Facts websites

    Both types of websites seem to be made for AdSense , most of the time they use a free blog service, put one page of information online and plaster the pages with AdSense code

    Do you encounter sites like this and what do you do about them?

    I receive these types of sites daily. I normally have a quick look and if they are quality sites I approve as long as the rules have been followed.

    If they have adsense pasted all over them with a bit of information, I reject.

    Some loan sites are quality sites but are let down by other loans sites who are there for adsense revenue.

    Linking to sites that are obviously MFA or have excessive pop ups will get you penalised as THESE are the sort of sites googlerefer to as bad neighbourhoods.

    You cannot miss MFA (Made for AdSense) sites, you will see more adsense adverts than substance on them

    It's the sites that don't resemble their link text and description that I hate ... I've had a whole load of traveltoXXXXX (where XXXXX is a city name) submitted to my directory ... all the sites have a slight variation in content, but in the main contain the same, non-city specific content ... junk !
