Will This Get Me Banned From Adsense? (screenshot Inside)

Discussion in 'Guidelines / Compliance' started by Mezmur, Jan 23, 2013.

    As you can see the small Adsense block is placed directly after the first paragraph...
    The ad is not "spaced" away from the paragraph so I guess some visitors could mistake it for a link that's part of the article instead of an ad.

    Also, there's the ellipsis after paragraph 1.
    I'm not sure how Google thinks about that (I did not put it there intentionally but some of my articles have that).

    Anyway, is this ad placement and the preceding ellipsis fine in the eyes of Google? Or am I asking to be banned?

    I think the placement is ok, you will not have problems because of that.

    The place for ad block is OK, you would get ban for this ad placement. More important is your site content and other options.

    That is a stupid and irresponsible comment.
    Google has rules that they clearly list.

    Quite clearly GC was being sarcastic- if the OP can't work that out, then he deserves to be banned. :)

    I put ads like that before in the same exact spot so I know what you're talking about. I've never been worried about this stuff before, I just find it useful to put it there. And to answer your question OP, no, you will not get banned for having it there.

    even though Google Adsense TOS says you agree not to confuse the reader with the content and ads, however, this looks neat enough and should not violate any terms. Most of the popular sites use such forms to improve earning potential.. so its cool.

    For your secure, better if you add more spaces between ads and content. Google is "unpredictable", even there is TOS.
