Using adsense as a signature

[alpalino]

Is using adsense as a signature in forums allowed. I saw a guy doing that in a different forum. Instead of putting a web site as signature, he put adsense.

Not in here...
You can try though if you have nothing better to do

I wouldn't have thought so, if everybody started to do it there would be about 30 ads per page which would be against Google TOS.

[fscripting]

for that html should be allowed too

I've seen it in talkgold forums, but the profits went to the admin not the users

i find this the safest way to loose your account.

[alpalino]

Yes, there is where i saw it (talkgold). It seemed a bit strange.

All i wanna know if it is OK to publish your ads somewhere else rather than your own registered channels with adsense account?

Black SUVs will arrive in front of your door and you will be kidnapped and tortured if you do so.

Spending too much time by the TV? Very sad.

Hello, I think it is legal by AdSense's TOS (having several AdSense Publisher ID one page is authorized with permission of Google, ask them if you want to do it) but they also say no more than 3 ad blocks in one page.
I know they block anymore than that, but do they mean a webmaster should not put 10 times the code, even if only 3 are displayed? Or do they mean that webmasters should not use any tricks such as iframes in order to display more than 3?

In any case, it's a good idea, but the forum owner would at least use one ad block, so leaving only two more adsense blocks for users.

If you are not able to understand the simplest form of sarcasm, then it's you who is watching too much TV.

Last time i checked, this is a forum where u get answers for your questions. If you here to demonstrate your sarcasm abilities, my friend you can easily do that somewhere else.

I answered your question with a JOKE. Is that so horrible in your small world?

if you keep the ads only on your site then you would have better control over them, say if you get banned for click frauds then how you going to prove anything, you don't have any site traffic details.
Anyway as long as its your ads its your responsibility.

What people are missing is that no forum is going to allow you to put javascript in your signature (unless they are crazy).

The closest you are going to come to what you want to do is if the Admin has adsense in everyones signature and you get a piece of it (rev share)

[Scarface.]

can you imagine if javascript was allowed?
WOW! hell would break loose

I have seen Adsense in one of the newsleters I got from a site on my Gmail account. Last I checked with Google about Adsense in email, they said it is against TOS.
