Adsense and Digg

I was wondering if its against adsense TOS for pages with adsense to be placed on digg?

 

Why would that be against TOS? When you are listed on Digg it is just a link to your page. What could be wrong with that?

 

I think Adsense considers that Digg traffic is not "natural"

 

Well NO

 

Why would you think that?

 

what's unnatural about it???

 

Surely Google views Digg as an authority site? I don't understand why they would consider it unnatural traffic.

 

Cause i've read it here at DP. Some user emailed Adsense about it, i think

 

I think something like that needs to be backed up with the hard evidence. I can't possibly see how it's true, it's just word-of-mouth traffic

 

If I read this correctly then yes

or at least they did not like it when I posted adsense ads on Google base when it was initially released

and Google did not like me posting the ads on craigslist either

so much for thinking outside the box ....lol

 

I asked Support about this and here is the response I got:

 

Well and that's the end of this topic

 

I won't search for the thread mate, i just gave a little advice about Adsense and digg, everybody is free to do whatever they want.


EDIT: I guess turnsniffer, 2 posts above was the guy how emailed Adsense Tks dude

 

Google obviously has some minds that are lacking in reasonable thought...

Here is why what they wrote for the most part is crap intended to scare people.

Jeff writes an article and sends it to Sally

Sally likes Jeffs article and asks Jeff if she can post it on Digg

Jeff says sure

Sally post the article which references Jeffs site and people visit after reading the article on Digg.

People visit Jeffs site and click Google Ads..

Now Jeff did not promote his site Sally did.....

Jeff can in no way shape or form be held responsible for this action.

Google cannot do a thing to Sally for promoting Jeffs article.

Nice try google but blow smoke up your own arse...

Peace and remember

Believe none of what you hear.....and half of what you read!!!!

 

What a palaver! If anyone gets banned from Digg traffic through this situation is very hard done by.

Yep, Digg is even an adsense premium publisher, so I don't think there should be any proble, it wouldn't make sense.

 

Re-read the original post....

It has nothing to do with diggs publishing deal with Google.

They want to know if they place their Adsense Ads in a article and post on Digg will this result in a problem

Since google could tie there account to driving unnatural traffic directly then YES it would be a problem..

I removed my articles from digg just to be on the safe side. ctr is great but they are not converting anyway

 

Smart move...no sense risking an account for a few $$

plus I think you can find more targeted users elsewhere...look in groups on Yahoo Msn Myspace Ryze

Peace

 

I have a quick question about digg, How do you permenantly remove your links from there. I tried undigging it and bury it but it is still there
