Why Google Adsense approved MFA site?

A lot of sites are just one single search page with adsense ads as a result

From what i know, the site must have at least 50,000 pages display per month to get approval from AdSense.

But, after a lot of reading in this forum, and view the html source of GA ads in my site, i found out that there is a lot of advertisers site which only a single page website with adsense ads as a result page.

I wonder how this site can has GA approval for displaying ads.

Sorry for this newbies question asked.

I think your initial assumption is wrong. I have google adsence and have nowhere near 50,000 pages, or even a 10th of that!

Where did you read that? I can't find it in Google Adsense TOS.

I remember that this is one of the requirement when we apply to GA. I applied to GA around end of 2003.

That may have been when it was in Beta ... and it has since came out of beta and anyone with a website can now apply.

Yes and they approve even a single page website hosted on Geocities' free hosting service.

I have seen that too, that rule was for sites that only list ads in categories, like directories, when you choose a category (eg. CARS), the site only list adsense advertisers related to that, no other content on the pages.

I know one site like that, but it apears that acording to the forum rules I can't post his URL here.

I've filtered sites with URLs that contain the words "auction", "bargain", "best", "brands", "classifieds", "click", "directory", "incentives", "latest", "offer", "price", "ringtones", "search", and "shopping".

Yeah, probably not MFA, it's called Direct Navigation.

Maybe you right, it is for domain park / direct navigation.

BTW, Car_guy, how do you filter sites with spesific keywords? Do you do it automatically or just by routinely observe the ads in your site?

The only real impression criteria applied to Adsense is for premium publishers.

20 million ad impressions per month before eligable.

May be flexible.

I'm not able to filter specific keywords (although I feel strongly that we should have that ability).

The words I listed above were contained in the URLs of some advertisers that I've filtered, and examples of sites with negligible value to my visitors.
