Adsense mixed with affiliate ads?

    I have two medium rectangles from adsense before the post and two cpa ads of the same size after the post.

    Is this against TOS? I tried to search, but could only find 'as long as they are not similar' responses.

    They are the same size, but in different locations.

    Thanks

    Actually they are the same size. It's just that adsense is before the post and my cpa is after. I was just curious because they look alike albeit on different locations.

    It is not a problem but do not confuse people by making them look exactly the same. AdSense wants you to make them standout from other ads.

    well they are the same size and the cpa ad looks a lot like google's ad...that's why I'm a little concerned.

    you gotta ensure that the cpa ads doesnt confuse adsense ads, then it will be fine

    Quote from AdSense policy:

    Competitive Ads and Services

    In order to prevent user confusion, publishers may not display Google ads or search boxes on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colours as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure that these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.

    Its alright. I have a 300x250 adsense text ads block between two 300x250 affiliate banner blocks on one of my sites. Works well ;)
