Hi guys
we always read about footprints and PBNs.
But in the case of legitimate w/hat businesses, G leaves HUGE footprints available to competitors, i.e.:
1) THE ANALYTICS CODE
Every Analytics account has 3 levels: Account / Property / View. If you enter more than one site as different property of the same account, a competitor can discover ALL YOUR SITES, because the code will be the same for all sites!
There are crawlers able to find all the sites with the same GAnalytics code.
SOLUTION: within the Analytics account you can create different "accounts level" which will have different codes
2) ADSENSE CODE
Adsense code is reported in clear text into the ads.txt file and there are crawlers that can find all the sites that have the same Adsense account!
Your competitors could find out with 2 clicks which sites you own and which strategies you are following.
SOLUTION: I have not found how to solve this big problem, because each Adsense account tracks only one code. Multiple Adsense accounts should be created, but this is against policy and G will block them.
