    Okay, I have just installed "Related post" plugin for my theme...check out the placement and please let me know if its safe to put it there like that or I should remove the ad?

    I don't see what would be against the TOS in that picture.
    Everything seems OK.

    Images next to ads are questionable. It is really Google's call. I do not see a problem but Google may think that the image is a problem and looks like it is connected to the ads. best is to ask them directly. Otherwise, if we are all wrong, you could end up being banned for something stupid.

    you are right. but from what i have seen so far, as long as there is a clear deviding line seperating the image from ads, google doesn;t seem to mind.

    My logic would say the same thing. Of course, Google and me do not agree on a lot of things. I would hate them to call a foul when he is ready for payout for something so minor. There is so many grey areas in their TOS that at times I think it is based on who at Google is reviewing the site. If he has it in writing that it was OK, it would go further if he got banned. :)


    I would worry more about the images, the other is very clear to have nothing to do with Google. Images are one of the big grey areas of Google.
