What you want to search it on your search engine! do you mean to use your own customized Search Engine provided by Adsense
This comes under clicking on ones own ads and is prohibited. You are paid not on the search itself, but any eventual click through deriving from that search.
Yes you may search using your own adsense search box! Google has stated so, although they recommend not doing it, just for the reason of accidental clicks. @ callmeminty, please show me that page and I'll show you where it is approved. Unless the policy has changed recently. http://adsense.blogspot.com/2008/09/is-it-right-to-search-on-your-own-site.html Code (markup):
Hrrmm isn't that the exact link I showed you where you "May" use your own search box? Read what is stated there an bit better!
I personally have done so to make sure everything lines up and works properly when displaying results on page rather than googles engine. Could be many reasons that are true to heart, as far as web standards goes. Just to search for porn on your site though wouldn't add up
I think I clicked an ad of mine once or twice when I was just starting (two months ago). But I can justify that it is really out of interest on the ad. Will I be banned?
