If you haven’t discovered this, yet, Google is suspending accounts that lead to Websites and Landing Pages that promote hCG for Weight Loss, whether or not your hCG is truly hCG Hormone, Homeopathic or any other product that reflects the name HCG. The terms hCG and Weight Loss in your content will flag your account for suspension. Simply using the terms hCG in anyway will bring scrutiny. This action has been prompted by a notice sent to Google by the FDA. In this notice Google was asked to cooperate in removing websites from search results that contained any promotional language relating hCG Hormone to Weight Loss. Google has begun to suspend Adwords Accounts, the next step will be to Blacklist all websites that promote hCG for Weight Loss and, last, there will be an algorithm created to block search results and Spider Cataloguing of content with certain terminology.
As you can imagine, since our primary clientele are MedSpa’s and Practioner’s using hCG for weight loss, this has caused us to develop strategies for overcoming this obstacle, assisting our clients from being Blacklisted by Google in Organic Search Queries and keeping you business profitable.
As a secondary issue, it may be a good idea to prepare for this assault on Alternative Medicine to begin to effect Anti-aging Medicine, Healthy Aging Medicine, Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy and Medical Practices who choose not to honor Medicaid. If the FDA can maneuver Google into changing the manner in which it allows searches to be conducted based on their opinion of Health Care Practices make no mistake, Microsoft Bing, Yahoo and Google’s Youtube are not far behind. As well as bans on the raw materials needed for these pharmaceuticals.
As a Certified Google Adwords Agency, we have spoken to our Team at Google and developed a strategy for both continuing your Adwords Campaigns and avoiding becoming Blacklisted in Organic Search Queries. Please feel free to contact us regarding this matter at your convenience. As always, we wish you well in your endeavors.
