    I am planning to built one of those "down or not" kind of sites where you can check the status of a website.
    I am not sure of how to monetize it yet but thinking of Adsense. Is it ok to use Adsense on sites like below.

    By its nature, anyone can check anykind of url and the results page will be a static page containing the url of the site checked. It would be a warez, adult or any kind of site thats against Adsense TOS.

    I believe it should be ok, yet it could also be dancing on a thin line.

    This issue is same for whois sites as well. so please let me know what do you think...

    you can do it but it's risky, i wouldn't put it on the same account with other websites that are already earning

    I thinks its ok to use adsense.You have to mention that site may sometimes contain adult rated material.But as it is only site for displaying statistics it is ok to use adsense.
