Operation [edit]
When a user uses Google, two lists of results, not one, are
viewing the results of the search engine itself, classified
according to "objective" criteria (see Googlebot and the
PageRank system) and later, the results from the AdWords
program, that is to say all advertisements. Google Finance
search engine with what companies pay him to buy keywords
used for AdWords.
With AdWords ads are displayed:
* On the Google search pages (if you type the keyword
"car", targeted advertising for cars appear).
* On the pages of Google's partners (AOL, Free,
Amazon, etc.)..
* On personal sites (with AdSense: Google runs Mediabot
with your site, and if your personal site talking car, targeted
advertising for cars appear and Google pays you a percentage
of the click paid by the advertiser who sells cars and if your
site critical for fast-food restaurants, you will also receive
advertisements extolling the merits of any burger).
* On Gmail (with AdSense: you say by email to a friend
that you are looking for a car, targeted advertising for cars
appear, targeting occurs automatically and no human reads
your mail).
This ad is very effective because it can target users based
on research carried out. It remains to be seen on one hand
and the relationship between the probability that type a
keyword and click on one of advertising, and partly from the
fact to click on advertising then to buy product. It is possible
also to divert AdSense (click fraud), while advertising
themselves could pay sites Paid to click, where they offered
to people to earn money by clicking on ads ( expectation that
these people would then buy their products, although their
primary motive is to earn money, not to spend).
Classifieds and Gmail [edit]
Mail Gmail users is analyzed by a robot and advertisements
are added next to the messages based on their content.
Thus, a letter referring to "courts" and "TD" or "teacher"
will be accompanied by advertising sites for school support,
rather than an advertisement for a completely different
subject.
How to block AdWords advertising [edit]
There are systems to block Internet ads, like Adblock, which
works with the Mozilla browser. With this "addon" (an
extension that adds new features to the browser), you can
subscribe to a "list" (French, American etc..) Blocking a large
number of advertising formats (images, animations, Google
Adwords), which you can add any type of image file that you
no longer want to see on your screen.
Cases [edit]
Several brands have filed lawsuits against Google in France,
saying he had no right to sell keywords that contain the
names of these brands to third parties. Indeed, this may
result to the next mark, which appears among search results,
other brands, or counterfeits are posted by the AdWords
program. In 2006, the Court of Appeal of Paris has ordered
Google to pay 300 000 euros in damages to Louis Vuitton [1].
Google has appealed and the Supreme Court has asked the
European Court of Justice (ECJ) an opinion on the subject
[2].
The latter responded in September 2009, through its
Advocate General Poiares Maduro, that Google had the right
to sell these keywords and the posting advertisements does
not constitute an infringement. According to the statement of
the ECJ:
"Internet users are aware that the site of the trade
mark owner will not only emerge in response to a search on
the search engine Google and they can sometimes not be
looking for this site. (...) Trademark rights can not be
understood as property rights for traditional owners to
exclude any other use. (...) He believes that instead of being
able to prevent, through the protection of the mark, all
conceivable use - including many legitimate uses and even
desirable - the brand owners should focus on specific cases
may incur liability under Google unduly harm caused to their
brands. "[3]
