12 google ads on a single page! How many should be on a page?

I surfed a site which have 12 google ads on a single page!
How many ads should be on a single page?

 

as few as possible...1 location

although google allow 3 locations, it is best with 1

 

If there are that many ads on 1 page then it is obvious there probably isn't nothing of value on the page. It was made for one thing in mind.

 

Currently, AdSense publishers may place up to three AdSense for content units on one webpage. Also maximum of three link units and two search boxes on each webpage.

 

I'm with 'gameutopia' on this one. More is less and less is best.

 

Google does not allow more than 3 ads (+link units) on each page. If there is more ads than this there might be a violation to their rules. Am I correct?

 

I think a single ad will work better if it is placed in good position.

 

Only 3 ads per page is allowed by Google you cannot show more than that.

 

Why would they need 12 that would scare people off I only have 2 on my site and zero on another one.

 

I also know about a few sites that have more than 3 ad units on a single page like HubPages.com. I have seen 6 ad units on a single page there. But, 12 are too many! can you share the link with us?

 

If you come across 3+ google ads blocks on same webpage with a single Google Account Publisher ID then its surely a case of 3rd party ads. 3rd party or other network get license from Google Adsense and so they get advertisers also Google Logo appears below those ads and they also allow placing of any number of ads blocks. So using of any other ad network & there contract with Google will result in display of all those ads.

 

maximum 3, you can not keep more than 3 ads per page.
