    I would think if you just add more graphical banners horizontally (to make a grid) then it would seem just fine and still get clicks in the right place :D

    One of the last things I would do when building a site is name a page "links.xxx"

    Google does not like the term link. reminds them of link spam ;)

    try "resources.xxx" instead.

    Peace

    I think that's a clear violation of the AdSense ToS: You are "artifically" drawing attention to the ads with the implication that you are suggesting they click the links. Bad idea, in my opinion.

    You do consistently miss the point, don't you Sem? And even if you hadn't, do you think Google hasn't figured out that a "links" page can have many different names/page titles?

    I just emailed google and asked them about the page and what i can do to make it ok.

    and also minstrel anything you add above or next to a link will bring attention to it..

    Anything that specifically draws visitors to the ads, yes. That's why the ToS forbids it.

    Your page says this:

    and then is immediately followed by the AdSense ads. What do you think Google will say about that?

    Hate to inform you there is no violation of TOS on his page.

    Implication and connotations are not noted in Googles T.O.S.


    As for the link issue, I think it's best we agree that we always disagree


    Youre a shrink ...maybe thats even questionable as if you had a half decent client base you would have little time to sit here at DP and try and degrade Search Marketers...of which you are not one..

    But hey blame google some more lol...makes you look half smart....:rolleyes:

    By the way ...

    We're done here too!!!

    Peace

    Okay, Phillip. Now you have a choice. You can listen to Sem-Advance, who hasn't been right about anything at all so far, and kiss your AdSense account goodbye sooner or later... or you can listen to me and get rid of that violation of ToS now.

    You can listen to a quack who has no clients to see and very little Adsense experience or someone with 40+ websites earning $1,000.00s per month with both Adsense and Yahoo.

    Again read the TOS from Google and you will see they do not deal in speculation.

    Do not listen to a miserable man who puts everyone down who does not agree to his view ...

    There are way too many like him in this world sadly....

    Ohh an menstrual did Google give you the client interface for Adsense or was it me they gave it to????

    Do some research old man....you are daft as you know not one thing about me...

    Either that or catch a plane and I will enlighten you in the real world...

    Minstrel is correct. Don't put your account at risk to get a couple of clicks worth .5-cents each.

    It's a TOS violation in my opinion because you're encouraging visitors to click. But G is the final word. Let us know what they say.

    Even when one Adsense rep says Yes, another one can say No tomorrow. There is just no point in risking your account over something that won't bring in all that much money anyways.
