It seems that Google has raised prices for Marketers significantly … hundreds of percents, not just a few pennies. Could this be Google’s backlash from all the law suits filed against them for click fraud?!! Ya think?!!

According to the folks at Affiliate Classroom, “With the recent update of Google’s landing page algorithm, many marketers that had been paying five or ten cents a click (or less) are now required to bid at least 50 cents to a dollar or more. There are also reports of some advertisers who have kept their bid prices, but those bids are now buying only 3rd or 4th page ad positions, where they used to buy first page positions.”

Perhaps it’s time to rethink the business you’re doing with Google and start to diversify!
