Can I put link to referral page on AdWords?

    I would like to advertise my shopping site which will have my referral link with adwords. Is this allowed with them?

    I would like to know before they ban me.

    Yes, it's allowed. Be aware of competition though.

    yes you can.
    but referral link directly in the adword ad is not allowed.

    You can put referral link in the ad(destination url), that's allowed for sure. It's called direct linking.

    Thanks, I will try with some clickbanks products. I hope it will go well. I receive $50 free advertising on adwords from my hosting company.

    I think it is against CJ and clickbank TOS to hot link to the direct affiliate page via a PPC program. I recommend looking into this before hot linking.

    I don't know about CJ, but Clickbank doesn't say anything about that, so it's allowed.

    This is valid for some of the advertisers at CJ but nor for all of them. It depends on each particular one - the TOS are not the same for all of the advertisers.

    exactly why i am advising not to jump the gun and start hot linking. It could get you banned, and even worse, a forfeiture of your commission.

    May be,but you should contact them via the contact us link in your adwords account.
    clickbank is absolutely allowed.
