hi gang, can anyone give me insight on - does google adwords allow ads for p2p sites like ipod downloads and TV shows downloads for search as well as content ? they hv sent me a mail says that they will ban my account. - i see a lot of ads for such type on google when i key in " music downloads" or similar download terms. Also most of the article directories hv adsense ads for such sites. Can anyone help me , is there a way i cn promote these on google
I see that kind of ads as well, and as far I as I know Adwords doesn't allow to advertise that. I don't understand, how such ads appear. Some of them die quickly, but there are some that have been there long.
Personally, I was promoting an ipod/psp download site and after a couple days, Google sent me a warning notice telling me that the campaign was deactivated due to copyright laws. I have also seen other people advertising those sites and that's why I thought it was ok, but you will notice that those ads are quickly killed by Google within a few days. So basically, all those ads you see, belong to "first-timers" who haven't been slapped by Google yet. Some of them survive for weeks before Google finally kills them.
I will contact Google to make that sure, because I know there is a big money to be made with those kind of sites.
web tv satillite sites are not permitted Also anything that promotes or remotely promotes free downloads of copywritten music is illegal.
