Sales are steady on my end, but it seems there are always numerous people on here complaining about how the tubes have killed their sales. If you put forth the effort, and don't always target the most saturated niche(s), you will be fine.

Now thats the truth.

We've seen the market changing and we've had to adapt, that's basically it.

Its all about who you are, and what you bring. While the above statement is completely true, I personally make bank off the "saturated sites" and niches just for sheer fact that they get searches due to their popularity.

There is way to many angles and avenues for a any businessman/woman to say any one thing ruined their business. Thats just a scapegoat.

In regards to this...

You can get unbanned most of the time, and as JD said in some earlier posts. If you are penalized, it's called 'sand boxed'. You generally will age out of it, or you can contact G and appeal.

I have been both, at one time or another, and got back from both by contacting G.
