    since google say they only want one ad showing up per search
    so for instance if I search newbie cash machine I would only see one
    ad showing the site directly the others might be review or something

    are you allowed to buy a domain name and then redirect it to
    the affiliate site containing your link

    thanks

    That thread is dealing with double serving, he is talking about redirects.

    For tracking purposes you can redirect as long as the display url matches the end result url, (after the redirection). However blatant redirects that are not for tracking purposes and where the display url does not match the end destination are not allowed. Mind you it's hit or miss if they catch you.

    One way around that is to make a landing page, get them to click a link on that page then make the link your affiliate link. More steps and you may lose the clicker but that's the chances you take.

    look under Affiliate policy

    https://adwords.google.com/select/guidelines.html

    states they dont allow redirects

    just build a 1 page review site or pre-sell the item and pass them on to the affiliate site, you will need other pages though to give your site quality

    This is why most of the ppl get stuck with adwords as the rules are updating all the time that it is hard to keep updated.
