Can i put Adsense on none sexual subpages of adult site?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by submitmaster, Sep 29, 2008.

    So my question is, If i have an adult site, but within that adult site, the subpages are NOT adult, some of the subpages are simple chat, information on restaurants, food, etc. can i have adsense JUST on the pages that are not adult content, or is that against googles rules because the subpage are still part of the main adult homepage?

    PS: the subpages do not have anything that is sexual at all, just a home button that does go to the main adult homepage.

    I would be interested too....

    It's something which is not exactly defined in Adsense TOS so I would be interested to find someone else opinion who already tried it, experienced it.

    Thanks

    well i have tried it and its been over a year and have not heard anything from google, but i dont want to take any more chance so im asking to see if anyone knows for sure, i mean the pages have great none sexual content and the ads that google runs is based on the site content which is about say food, travel, bars, etc.

    A strict interpretation of the Policies would say no because it says Sites, not Pages. I, myself, would not do it as the risk is large. Just because you haven't been caught doesn't mean it's because it's okay.

    My advice would be to strip those pages (non-adult) off the site and place them onto their own domain, and then add Adsense. If they are non-adult and not at all related as you are indicating, then there's no real sense to keep them on that domain is there?

    This is win win I would think. You would be able to put the adsense on them and you would then be sure that you weren't violating TOS/Policies and not just in a "gray area"

    I would not test the boundary. You can be gone in a heart beat.

    You _could_ but if the domain is already flagged as Adult, a subdomain may carry some of that baggage. If I were in this situation, a completely separate domain would give me more peace of mind.

    Everything works great right up to the point you get caught. It just depends on if the reward is worth the risk.

    The definitive answer to you question is people do it, but it does violate the TOS. Your call.

    yes i do know any adult content site is a violation of TOS, but im just wondering even if i remove the adult content and make the site a blog with regular content, that should not be a problem, i dont know i need to maybe ask google and see if they reply.
