A company called Xedant claims that have come up with a way to rid the world of Adsense Arbitrage (explained here and here). The solution? Teach people how easy and profitable it is to game the Adwords/Adsense programs. Their online tutorial (posted here) records how easy it was for them to build “Made for Adsense” click optimized pages and make money from them by buying Google Adwords. (e.g., buy traffic from Google (Adwords) and monetize that traffic by getting those folks to click on higher paying Google Adsense links).

The company claims to be doing this because they are sick of competing on Google Adwords with these arbitrageurs. They figure if the problem gets big enough that Google will eventually have to do something about it. I can’t vouch for their actual motives (or the research they claim to have done on the extent of the problem), but you have to hand it to them for creativity.
