Adsense revenue from my sites only

    Hello guys,

    I wish to defend myself from the concurrency that would copy-paste my Adsense code into other websites that don't meet Adsense Terms of Service in order to get my Adsense account suspended.

    Under 'Account settings' I can enter domains which are mine and from which I would like to earn revenue. The others will be excluded so I don't get anything if my code would appear on a strange and unknown website.

    I'm not sure how to enter my website address(es) though.

    domain.com
    www.domain.com
    http://domain.com
    http://www.domain.com
    or multiple choices?

    I've just set it to the first two options without http. But I'm not sure if it's okay. And I don't wanna lose money from another two-days period that makes the changes work.

    Could you help me? Have any of you set this great feature?

    thank you. It will be revealed at the first -possibly not wasted- click after 48 hours.

    You have to enter the domain name. So either domain.com or www.domain.com would work.

    Just add domain.com to authorized sites. Adsense will automatically detect the www. part if your site address has that part.

    yes only domain.com is best for your sites. Although honestly it is not so much risk, but well, if you want to use this feature, why not..

    I got my adwords suspended as I tried to advertise a PTC (?) - this is the negative experience for the conclusion that google handles everything very strict. So I would like to minimise the risks of getting my adsense suspended as well.

    PTC is against adsense's tos that's for sure. Maybe also against adwords's tos, I don't know since I don't use adwords. So really, if you respect adsense's tos you have not much to fear for at all.
    But yes, shit happens even if you do everything right. So you can use this feature if you don't have too many sites.
