hi I am wondering how if it is allowed to run adsense ads and text links ads like http://www.text-link-ads.com on the same page. Basically running 2 different advertising - adsense and another partys ads. thanks bb300
Actually just read the TOS for ADSENSE, and as long as the OTHER advertising ads dont look like google ads your fine - KONTERA ads look nothing like ADSENSE ads..so we should be fine - here is the test from ADSENSE TOS: Competitive Ads and Services In order to prevent user confusion, we do not permit Google ads or search boxes to be published on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colors as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.
you can use Chitika along with adsense. it is allowed by both google and chitika. only thing to remember is that you can only use one search box. if you use google search box, you cannot use chitika. but you can use contextual ads for both on the same page which is fine
It won't get you banned from adsense, but if google think you are selling links they might ban your site from google search engine results.
This whole thing really burns me that Google can ban anyone for anything especially TextLinkads. Its like they're censoring the internet because they don't like paid links. This week its paid links next week they could start banning people for talking about competitors. When did Google start becoming judge and jury instead of a bot that crawled stuff and let you search for it. In all honesty they should just program around it and stop banning people, otherwise they are going to get themselves a bad rap eventually. I am also tired of this grey area, $&1* or get off the pot and tell what is or isn't acceptable oh your mighty ambivalent Googleness. Maybe a Worldwide Ban Adsense for a Day would get their attention and force them to take notice. Stop messing with Ads google. Let people post whatever the hell they want on their page without making them disappear off the SERPS hell you're not the internet mob. RANT OVER
