    I just now saw a site with AdSense advertising itself. Pretty strange huh? Actually, doess AdSense got something to prevent this happen?

    One would think that AdWords advertisers would be smart enough to exclude their own sites from their ad campaigns.:confused:

    Yes, AdSense users can ban ads from specific sites and this would be an effective way to prevent one's own ads from showing up on one's own websites.

    Happened to me also, more than once. At a glance I thought I was mistaken, but not...

    Other than Google Image and Picasa, what other products does Google sell from Adwords? Anyone see any?
