Putting Text By an Ad Okay?

    Hey everyone,
    I was just wondering if it's okay to put let's say the word "Advertisement" or "Sponsored Ad" next to an advertisement on your website. I know the policy says NOT to draw attention to the ads and to add pictures by the ads but is text like this okay?
    Thanks so much.

    Yeah that perfectly fine with adsense.
    You can write Sponsors or Sponsored Ad but never put any line such as 'Help Support Me By Clicking The Ads' or sorts.

    if you do so the first thing you know is adsense has banned your a/c and site.

    I think it's better to adhere to the policy

    Yeah, I realize if I said Click the Ads I would get banned. So then it's okay putting Sponsored Ad?

    As long as you are not encouraging users to click the link, you should be fine.
    Google for "Google AdSense Program Policies" and check the "Encouraging Clicks" section
    ps: live link not active for me yet :)

    That's fine. Even Adsense encourages their clients to
    do that. So your face. Just don't directly encourage your visitors
    to click your ads. Good luck! :)
