I just got done reading a lot of the newb articles in this forum and it seems that a lot of the Arbitrage posts were made more then a year back can you tell me if things/rules have dramatically changed in the past few months or are there just better opportunities out there to make better money?

I know that is a general question I just noticed that they weren't many new posts about arbitrage. Thanks and what a great forum and site.

Google started making arbitrage life miserable for affiliates. Quality scores and manual slaps of arbitrage accounts and stuff.

I hear that some people are still getting away with it, but I don't know any personally.
 
I figured it was something like that. I'm just trying to get as much information as I can get about everything and go out there and try everything and it seemed like Arb was if not dead in a coma.
 
There are definitely people still making money with it, but I don't recommend you try to get into it as a noob.

When you all say "arbitrage" do you mean the celebrity polls that actually lead to zip submits or ringtones offers? Or is that something else?

What does work that a n00b can start out with in PPC that won't get them slapped?
 
Arbitrage usually refers to buying cheap links on adwords that leads to a page filled with adsense ads where the adsense ads pay more per click then the adwords you paid for.

OK, that makes sense. I've heard that's been dead for a while.
 
Its far from dead, whats dying is making crap sites with just ads on them. Many have been priced out or QS'd out of google, some are still cruising. Being a good ppc affiliate means having lots of sources, private deals, arb, seo, sem and more. Making the cash is harder, yes this true for some.
