    I stumbled along a web based proxy a few months ago and have been using them ever since however they have implemented a new ad placement...

    they have a small box ad with text and small box with pictures next to each other...

    is this allowed?

    im not sure because of the new no drawing attention to ads thingy google implemented

    anyways i think it is a pretty good placement...

    if you want to see it go to their site http://shareandcare.110mb.com/ultimatum/

    i don't know if posting a site is allowed so if the link isnt there a mod prob deleted it =)

    It's not allowed. That site owner might get warned/banned soon if Google notices.

    No, it's again Google's TOS.
    Don't do it unless you want to get banned from Google Adsense ;)

    I don't think this is against AdSense TOS. Two ad units next to each other - why not? It's not like the webmaster manually chose and aligned colorful pictures next to the ad rectangle. :)

    I cannot believe some members are actually responding and MISGUIDING the O.P.

    THIS IS PERFECTLY LEGIT. Google Image Ad + Google Text Ad = NOT against T.O.S.

    Google Ad (Image OR Text) next to Image = Against TOS.


    Either way, if you are still not 100% sure, send me a PM after you implemented it with your URL link and I will let you know. And if you are still unsure, e-mail Google.

    ________________
    Now what's really mind boggling is how this guy is running a proxy site from a free web hosting provider!

    OP = Original Post/Original Poster

    Everyone needs to make some money--some HONEST money! I wouldn't report him... it's a free host, they should check up on what's being served on their server!

    thats why i think he has it in the directory "ultimatum" instead of "proxy" ... avoid detection i guess

    This is perfectly legit as about 95% of proxy templates have the two block ads next to eachother like that and Ive yet to hear of any proxy owners being baned for that.
