Against Blogger TOS?

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by Biztone, Apr 6, 2008.

    I checked the TOS and cycled through Blogger (Blogspot) blogs... and my question is:
    Can I sell Ad Space on my blog? I'm not talking about Google ads. I'm talking about private ads from other bloggers, affiliates, etc.
    I didn't see anything in the TOS
    But I didn't see it on any of the blogs either (ads that is).
    Does anyone know?

    you can but watch out for googles 'selling links' program that could lead to the blog not being indexed. Wordpress is a better platform as you can hide the link sales in blogrolls etc.

    google dont have any problem if you are using nofollow for you outgoing links... links should be like advertisement and they should not pass any PR to other sites...

    Thanks...

    There should be NO problem at all. I have seen many others do it.

    You can even sell adult ads.
    I would recommend anyone who uses Blogger for adult material does not select adult content on the set-up options. If you do they will place a horrible content warning page in front of your site.

    Great, then I will plan on doing so.

    For this I am talking about those 150 X 150 squares of six (and banners). I mean, I guess they technically are a link... but is it really a problem??
