Will Google give a higher rank to a website which runs AdSense?

“Will Google give a higher rank to a website which runs AdSense? I’ve seen some SEO Experts” claim this. It makes sense to me as Google is a corporation trying to maximize profit. Although IMO this would go against “don’t be evil”. Which is it?” Nick Y, Vancouver BC Russian subtitles provided by Mike Shakin. Have a question?

@CraZy675
In all the 10+ years of SEO, Adsense has never, repeat NEVER been a factor to increase rankings, and only added the last three years to provide more USER INTERACTION with the sites, plus a little change- of course!

MONEY FROM ADSENSE PAID FOR MY GULF COAST VACATION! CLICK ON MY NAME.

But what about the reverse, where someone has been banned from adsense through no fault of their own? Do disabled adsense owners face a lower ranking?

Ah~ Thank you for this. I’ve been wondering the same thing too since, well, Adsense is from Google so they might prioritize them but I was wrong. People should just come here rather than believe others say that it does affect rankings

@bigal21110 @christinio @DerAutoschieber there are no dumb questions, only dumb anwers….no offence, but not all webmasters are seo experts and there are many “experts” telling fairytales . So I think it’s good Matt choose this item, although I’m afraid DerAutoschieber also has a point here

Nice question about adsense. Clients believing such rumors will probably not believe the video anyway….

DerAutoschieber 16, January 2012

@CraZy675 just better clients…

CraZy675 16, January 2012

I know it’s a stupid question, but I needed proof as I lost a client to a competitor who claims this.

@pasxizeis Emphasis?

Why are you using your hands for no reason?

But it is easier to get into google news. I tried this with several websites with same technical setup but only could apply to google news with adsens on the page. Maybe it is a luky punch but it is a bit fishy anyway

he says, “not, not, not, not” .. does that in fact mean that he’s answering in the affirmative? (joke)

christinio 16, January 2012

waste of #viewers + Matt’s time

bigal21110 16, January 2012

ya people asking that question are kinda dumb. They can see for themselves top ranked websites in their industry mostly don’t even run ad-sense.

I have seen a lot of guys debating this questions and it’s good that these questions gets an answer. It’s so easy just to link here everytime someone brings it up again. Keep on rockin’ Matt!
