    I thought that you were not allowed to advertise sex etc on google adwords.

    I am using the google customised search feature (to see how it works) and when I do a search for lets say "porn" I get ads for Porn DVDs, live sex cams etc.

    This is the results page

    http://www.nzwebsearch.co.nz/result...10&ie=UTF-8&searchtype=web&sa=&TypeS=web#1110

    Anyone got any ideas on how these people are making ads selling sex in adwords? or is it not against the Terms and conditions?

    You can use adwords for adult sites. But you can't have adsense on adult sites. Maybe you're getting them confused?

    Wow...someone has an anger management issue. The OP didn't say it was bad, he just didn't think they were supposed to run. You need to have a beer and chill.

    this is right, I have no issue with porn ads running at all, im sure they have a decent payout. Fact is if someone is looking for porn then an add about porn is likely to interest them, which means more money for me, *insert evil laugh*

    heh...I have 2 adult sites and when I set up adwords campaigns for them they ran through the budget in about 10 seconds. It was insane! I've stopped trying to promote them for now until I figure out a way that's not going to cost me a zillion dollars for not much return. :)

    You can try your domain as your signatures at few adult forums and just keepup with quality post also if you can manage to spend few bucks then try to put ads at few high traffic adult sites/forums.

    Thanks harry, I'll get to that eventually. But right now I have a few other projects that are actually making me money that are taking up my time. Once those are done I'll concentrate on the adult sites. But they're low on my list of things to work on, I just kind of stumbled into them. :)
