Adsense and the phrase "Click Here"

    Hello,

    I am currently displaying Adsense ads on my forum. However, I am also displaying advertisements from other services such as 1-800-contacts, Game Fly, and ebay, and sometimes these advertisements have the phrase "Click here" on them.

    They are not saying to click adsense ads, but they do say, "Click here."

    This isn't a violation, is it?

    I don't think it is.

    IMO, it is against the google adsense tos. Send email to google support for sure. :)

    It would be OK if you're not placing that ads near the Google ads. Simply enough.....

    Yeah, I agree with Angellica - you can't really be held responsible for what other ads are targeted towards your site. As long as you keep them seperate from AdSense ads I don't see the problem.

    Thanks for the input everyone, I really appreciate it.

    Yes, Angellica seems to have a valid point...I'll look into it based on all the advice here and make my decision.

    Once again, thank you. :)
