Little trick to sabotage your competition

When this idea came to me, I thought it was too stupid to work. I gave it a shot, and it actually worked.

Here it is. As usual, if a competitor is stupid enough to have adsense on his site, go to your adwords account and make a new image ad site placed to his url.

Put up a blank image, yes, a blank image, and bid high to ensure the top spot. The color of the image should be the same as his background, so if its pink, put pink…

You will have to submit the image ad several times until a bored google employee approves it, but if you did any facebook ads, you are already used to the drill.

What this does is simply negating his adsense income for as long as he does not notice it, since noone clicks the ad. Almost noone, I had 2 clicks and 23k impressions.

Easy? Yes

Stupid? Completely

Does it work? Yup

After ccnp and mcp, a lot of mcdst professionals who are not interested in a comptia certification, instead settle down for ccda.
