Can you use adwords to advertise your site that has adsense?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by notxursuperman, Oct 6, 2009.

    I have a site with about 20-30 pages of unique(I wrote) content... is it okay for me to use adwords even though I have adsense?

    I heard it's called arbitrage and could get you X'ed out? Is this true?

    If it is, should I X out my adsense? As I do want to drive traffic to my site.

    Sorry, I haven't really contributed here, it's my first post on adsense and it's a question. Let me know. Thank you.

    if your site is MFA ( made for adsense ) and driving traffic from adwords then your account must be on risk, google hate this type arbitrage, you have to sell or you must need any paid service in your website to bring traffic to adsense page.

    That's allowed. You can use PPC advertising to advertise your site with adsense

    If you rely only on Adwords traffic, in order to make money consider reaching the following:

    (average incomming (Adwords) CPC) < ( (average outgoing (Adsense) CPC) x (average outgoing (Adsense) CTR) )

    E.g. if your Adwords CPC is $0.01 you will pay your cost (and make money) only if your Adsense CPC x CTR is no less than 0.01 (e.g. CPC=$0.20 and CTR=0.05)

    If it's not a MFA, you can go ahead.

    this is called arbitrage , your adsense website must have a good content to use adwords to get traffic

    Some of these replies make it sound far more straightforward than it is.
    There is no blanket ban on using adwords for a site that has adsense on it. - However, unless a google adwords employee who looks at your site for 10 seconds can see a clear use for your site other than getting people to click on the ads, you will get flagged as arbitrage and penalised. Initially this will take the form of your adwords costs going up - if you see your cpc going up even though you have a decent ctr, just stop and call it a day, because that means you've been slapped and the next step could be banning.
