    If your content is about gambling, then selling gambling links is fine. If your content is about flying and aircrafts and your links are pointing to gambling sites then it may cause suspicious to Google, But common sense dictates that anything is legal as long as it doesnt affect other people. So by adding gambling links it should just be fine.

    Yeah it should'nt be a problem as your niche should be realted to linking websites.
    Just avoid linking to different niche and you'll be fine.

    If you use adsense. .then.. it's against adsense TOS to link to illegal,gambling sites.
    If your site is about casinos,etc.. then it will benefit you.. otherwise.. NO

    1. As previously mentioned, if you are an adsense publisher it will get you banned so stay away.
    2. As long as you make it look natural you won't be penalized in google for selling links, they'll penalize you if they find out, which if done properly is impossible.
    3. You might get in big ranking problems if, the sites you link to, use some black hat/spamming technique, which is very common in gambling sites, if you link to a spammer they'll start seeing you as a spammer.

    Apart from the above, a link to a gambling site is just like any other link. So whoever said that you'll be penalized just for linking to them doesn't have a clue!

    be carefull because some companies do not like gambling, for example adsense doesn't accept adult and gambling sites. You could get banned for putting up links related to gambling ...

    Yeah i agree with the consensus. It will only make sense if you are about casino gambiling. However I don't know the extent of the penalties you may get if any. You shouldn't get banned from this, but i will probably make you less trust worthy in the eyes of google. I wouldn't be surprised if you lost your SERPs if you have nothing to do with gambling. If you are not sure don't risk it.

    I would use this option only if the site is closely associated with the theme of your own site. If not then it is not worth the hassle.

    It is totally up to you .
    Do you have plan to sell links to such people and gambling links ?
    IMO, if I were you, I will quote a price at first for those who wants to buy link .
