Can Adsense be used on Image Hosting Sites??

    I have an image hosting site.

    Can I host adsense ads on it?

    My concern is, I cannot always control what images are being hosted. Also, the traffic source is frequently adult forums (the pics featuring exposing pictures, but not nudes).

    I have visited some other image hosting sites, and very few of them use adsense on them. Maybe they were banned?

    What is your opinion on it? The best would be if I could hear from someone already having an image hosting site.

    If you are afraid, try adbrite. You will earn pretty good if you have high traffic and you will never get banned.

    Yeah definitely porn pics are not allowed, chances are google won't catch you that easily, however if they do, I think you will get a warning 1 to 2 times, after that, banned forever. Don't do it, unless you can control or have a team validate each image being upload ensure it's not porn or copyright.

    So the best thing is to have a team moderating the images? I believe the copyright thing will not be too big an issue. Right?
