Can we use the Advertiser's name in a blog post?

    An advertiser listed their name under the following section in their TOS:

    Search Campaigns - Prohibited SEM Ad Copy Content
    These are terms that publishers are prohibited from using in the ad copy of their search marketing campaigns


    Does it mean we CANNOT write a post with their name and put their affiliate links in it? We can't mention it at all?

    I'd appreciate your opinion. Thanks!

    Check all the time Advertiser Details/TOC
    For example Hostgator Web Hosting states below.
    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    Search Campaigns - Prohibited SEM Ad Copy Content
    These are terms that publishers are prohibited from using in the ad copy of their search marketing campaigns

    hostgator,host gator,gatorhost,gator host,www.hostgator.com,hostgator.com,http://www.hostgator.com,hosting gator,gator
    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

    You cannot put "hostgator,host gator,gatorhost,gator host,www.hostgator.com,hostgator.com,http://www.hostgator.com,hosting gator,gator" in Ad copies of Google Adwords or Bing Adcenter.

    But you can put those words OR affiliate links (text or banner) in your site or blog.

    most of time, it is not allowed. Be carefully about the advertisers' protected keywords

    For some products it is allowed to use their keywords and name in our blog posts. Be sure by checking the rules and regulations of the product before posting.
