Hi, I have a live football streaming website. The basic purpose of the website is to provide links to live online working football channels. http://www.footyplanet.tv I had the code built in by a programmer that whenever i add an article to the live channels category, a thumbnail (live) is displayed alongside. Hence, when i add adsense banner as an article, a live thumbnail is displayed alongside. Is this okay? Check out the page to see what i mean.
According to Google's TOS your allowed to have 3 adsense blocks per page. So as long as you don't violate the rules I cant see why it should't be ok.
Hi YesMoreTraffic, Your site looks nice. With the ads, I think the placement is okay. Just try experimenting with various ad groups. You can try link ads sometimes and see how that goes.
Looks good to me and grat color matching, but always test... test... test... If you haven't already I would try one ad block at the top with a 336x280 large rectangle. One ad block produces higher CPC than multiple.
