What would make Adsense Better

What would make Adsense better isn't something Google would do, it's something we would do.

We are small individual separate individual trying to communicate and and have a dialog with a large company.

It's like a Elephant talking to an Ant.

Doesn't sound like a win-win situation.

We as publishers have no voice.

According to Tech Crunch Google is lobbying congress so it can have input on regulations that affect it's business, but who do we have lobbying Google on behalf of Us publisher who are affected by it's changes?

Most decision that affect our earning or done with out our inputs, and a lot of time with out us even knowing.

Google has our email address, phone number, home address and social security numbers, but we don't get a single "hey guys we are planning to change this" or "Hey guys what do you think about this" email.

The partnership is one side, because we just sit on our butts and do nothing.

When a pending government regulation change affects Google they lobby.

When something changes that we hate and loses us money, we just accept it, and take no action.

Maybe that's a question we need to ask our self? What can we do?

Cause honestly looking at the nature of this program, it's hard to see this as a long term career with retirement potential.

One change, and you could be on page 20 and find yourself back in the work force. Scary but it has happened to a lot of publisher over the years "and a lot since Panda"

People say government regulations can't impact a business, but Google Regulations "changes" can impact our online businesses, but we have no say.

Maybe we need to organize, pull our voices together, get someone working on our behalf to communicate with Google on behalf of publishers interest.

We need more transparency, input, and notice of what Google is doing as it pertains to our bottom lines.

If you're earning a living as a webmaster, this is something you really need to think about.

I started thinking about animals these days, Then i thought i would put a banner on my site saying

" Be kind to the animals, go veg"

Now same thing i have to tell the Google!

"Be Kind to the Webmasters, go fair"
