Kyle Roof said yesterday in a youtube podcast that Google is considering pages with affiliate links and ads as doorway pages, and that's why a lot of these websites have been penalized.
He said it's because of EEAT. Google want people who made purchases to do it on the same website, and not click to links leading them to other websites.
So, if a person enters on a website from search results, and click on an ad or affiliate link, and then made a purchase from the second website, is bad from Google's perspective.
What do you think about this?

Itis fine as long they themselves do this. Once others do this and make money with this, then they have the problem.

roll it back to 2010 when I would purchase 20 PLR articles for $5.99 and slam them (UNEDITED) onto a MFA site, make 100 blog comments, 100 bookmarks, 10 web 2.0s, and submit 1 spun article to EZA, Articlesbase and GOArticles with links to the homepage and I'd make $150 a month with Adsense within 2 months....

Good times. Scrapebox blasts would rank anything. Even adding tags to the articles ranked them fast. It was stupid.
 
Affiliate links yeah okay it might be next in the chopping block. I am skeptical about ads though. Adsense is run by Google so like it don't make sense to go after ads and still running adsense ads on the same site.

But less and less new websites are accepted in the Adsense program in the last year. Probably in the future only websites that Google recognise as brands would be accepted.

Ok, but there are no ads on the sites so Google can't go after those site as there are no ads.
And the ones that are running google's adsense it does not make sense for Google to go after those sites.
Look, Kyle roof and his buddy Matt digitty made heavy investment on ai blog related services, products, courses and youtube videos. March update have hit them really hard as google chearly went after ai sites. So they are all coping and seething.
Wait 1 month till dust settles down. There will be winners and looser blogs and sites.
What's working and what's not working will be analyzed and you will find it out.

yeah, SB would totally kill back then... And tags used to boost rankings too, but only for a short period from what I remember because I've heard about the tags trick and when I wanted to start implementing it it was already patched lol. Just my luck :)

I think they'll targeted sites that run ads NOT controlled by google.

Golden era ended...

don't know what SG is, sorry!

But still, back then I was newbie (had started SEO in August 2009 if memory serves me well), and affiliate marketing or even selling my own products was scary as fuck to someone like me (no salesmanship material and hated sales and marketing... in hindsight, I was kind of forced into this industry, so yeah...)

you know, I actually don't remember anything about blogspot, which is weird because I used to work a lot with web 2.0s (and with free sites in general) back then.... What's the deal with blogspot if you don't mind me asking? Did it use to rank well, or what?

Blogspot was the start of blogging ecosystem by Google. It was the start of adsense as well. Back then ranking was beans and blogging was easy, no crazy adsense requirements and traffic was easy peasy
