Google Adwords Decline for the "Big Sites"
I found an interesting post over at Wolf Howl about Adsense feeding keyword list to big clients, whether the keywords are relevant or not. Greywolf's post noted an Adsense ad displaying for the keyword phrase "Dead Squirrels" which was ultimately an eBay ad. So, to try and top that horrible ad, I thought I would try a few random queries myself. It only took a couple of minutes to find some that were just as bad, like the one you see to the right. I mean, come on, who really wants to buy back hair.
I find these Adsense trends alarming and even moreso alarming that Google would disable any of my or my client's Adsense ads for what they call "poor performance" while at the same time letting Ebay, Target, Amazon, and others use keywords that absolutely do not make sense. I don't really know how much worse Adsense could actually get, but this person put together a whole page of dumb PPC ads to prove this trend.

This interesting, Google has
This interesting, Google has a great influence on these trends, I think we should follow these trends and adapt or just learn the Google magic formula.
You might be right about
You might be right about this, we could use some serious changes in the system but these things don't just happen, it takes time and patience get this through, just be optimistic. I wonder if Google Nemesis would be of any help in this case.
