I got a notice from Google about my Adsense account. You can see the ad’s there on the right..(maybe) I have owned this site for several years.. I don’t blog on it much anymore. My brother uses it a lot – he is a film buff and enjoys reviewing movies .
So anyway Google sends me an email…
One or more of your sites has been in violation of AdSense policies.
Huh? What the heck are they talking about? I go over and look! Here it is! Yes.. My old blog… Violating Google Rules… What is it?
Well….The Email says:
AD MISLABELING: Publishers may not implement Google ads in a manner that disguises the ads in any way.
How am I doin that? OH…. It said ‘KEWL’ above one ad. And ‘Stuff” above another.. It can’t say that. It has to say – Advertisements’ Or ‘sponsored links’ 😉
OK… I’m glad we got that cleared up. I have had this site up since like 2008. Hmmm 8 years. Sorry I didn’t wanna break any rules…Good they got around to telling me.
I took a quick look at my balance while I was fixing the problems.. A grand total of $76.66
It’s money in the bank……

Well this is my favorite blog… It was a brainstorm of mine after meeting a friend who had a celebrity blog and was making some money at it.. ( A living actually)
It was a crazy dream of mine that people would actually be interested in what DaveStuff actually has to say. I figured people would often search for “controversial opinion” (and they do) would want to comment on my silly opinions and perhaps contribe to them too. I am #1 in controversial opinions in google… But to what avail?
I used techniques I learned from ProBlogger to put this site together and hopefully to monetize it! (Do ya see the ads?)
I have not made enough money to even get the first check from Google‘s AdSense program. But that’s OK
I Still Love To Give my Opinions and have more plans to continue this blog and to certainly keep my loyal readers happy… I get anywhere from 20 to 60 visitors every day and would love to keep serving it up!
I’m working on a new brainstorm now… On a later post I’ll elaborate on that one…So stayed subscribed… You dig?
