Google Adsense is one of the major ways the blogger/Media house is able to generate revenue and keep the platform in operation but due to the changing policies of Google, the terms and conditions of Google Adsense keeps changing.
Recently a number of Bloggers/Media houses have been flagged by Google due to contents uploaded on their sites that Google considers as infringement on copyright.
These Contents were sent to the Blogger for Free Download but were also uploaded on sales portals such as Amazon, iTunes, etc for sale.
As a result, these contents were flagged on the blogger’s platform whereas the blogger observed due protocol in uploading the content.
If the Blogger keeps getting flagged for such content, Google will disqualify the blogger from its Adsense program, thereby resulting in loss of major revenue and money accrued overtime.
We are appealing on the Gospel artiste to
1. Leave Free content as FREE everywhere so as not to be in contrast with the bloggers terms and condition as opposed to the sales portals and Google’s regulation.
2. If the content is for sale, share the same portal for every platform
3. If it is for sale and for free download, Kindly make the copyright level less stringent so it does not affect the blogger/media houses
4. Help make the copyright level of previously released content which are for sale and free download less stringent.
GMA constantly advises members to always only put up for free download songs that are deemed so by the artist and to desist from putting for free download songs that the artist has deemed premium and for sale.
Thank You for your constant cooperation.
God bless you.
It is really bad…. Wizkid sells his song on iTunes 9is loaded and other website buys dem and blog den for free…Wizkid doesn’t send den mail or report them to any google ads to bring down the song because he wants to make all the necessary money.
We all know that non gospel makes der. Money from shows but our gospel artist should not be upset when dy see free links to der songs……..how many ppl buy music come to think of it……d main reason why non gospel songs are evrywere is because its for free…..der are thousands of gospl songs dat moves but dy are locked up on iTunes and when bloggers blog at request it to be removed….. Its a shame ooooo…..u will still make money GOSPEL ARTIST
Me am not saying selling your song is bad but if bloggers blog dem don’t be angry or report them…..dy are promoting your work and also promoting der website…..
