Hey I made a simple site. Am I violating TOS in any way?

    Just an easier way to find your files from megaupload. The codes been modified so it doesnt look like a mess when you search from www.shareminer.com .

    Am I violating TOS in anyway?


    Thanks guys,

    Yes, you site has no content + when you search anything you go straight to google search page

    So i guess, it wont be allowed by adsense, but you wont be banned, till someone reports you ;)

    I really dont get it, I didnt put it on the front page because it said you cant put it on a page with no content. But the search technically does have give it "content". I see sites like filecrop.com or eatpaper.com/ or searchshared.com . How are they not violating?

    I will say it too, but not so harshly. Your site can be worked on a bit, It isnt going to win any design awards for best looking website, but it is good in the way it works. So all it is is a googel adsense search box thingy? You should consider changing the colours on the results page as they are bad. But otherwise I dont think it is against TOS of adsense

    I'd say, Yes, its violation the TOS.
    As your site have no text content, you may receive a warning mail.
    You better add some description like how to search and all other things.

    Yes, you are violating TOS, because you are not providing any useful content. The site is purely made up of a search tool (and Google Adsense ads if/when you add them).

    This reminds me of funfail.com. If you were to add a forum, and a way for users to add files to an index on your site, you could have your Google custom search index the pages there, too. More ad opportunities there, also. Just don't allow porn, and claim that you are like a bitorrent tracker, not storing the files, only providing a reference to them...that's what megauploaded, rapidshared, and link.io did until they disappeared.
