Morning July 01, 2010 Google AdWords was banned from Google search because of cloaking its help pages. If Google banned its AdWords- “money” page, what can we entrepreneurs expect? Maybe its Google Honesty or Googlebot software? Anyhow it’s the second time that I know Google banned its own pages.
Looking closer the snippet for the Google AdWords Help was strange looking, the page was different from the page that visitors suppose to see.. I checked the Page source and found different content (not relevant to the pages) especially in header with markings “hidden”
Google spokesperson told us that some Google support pages were inadvertently showing different content to the Google crawler than to users but it's fixed now.
Conclusion: We have to be aware of Google preparedness to quickly find and bane website for showing different content for search engines then to content users.
