    newbie question, I know it is against tos to click on the ads on your site. However, is it against tos to click on the text links on your site to see what sites are displayed? Of course, without clicking on any of the sites that come up.

    Don't click! If ad shows URL shown, type it in. If not do a search for ad text. That way you are always safe.

    If URL is not shown, look at the source code. And just right click, not left. ;)

    I must add this also: NEVER click ads on your site.

    He's asking about LINK UNITS, not ads.
    I've read that you CAN click on LINK UNITS, as long as you dont click any of the resulting ads.

    is this not correct? (i've never done it)

    'He' is a 'She' :D

    And, yes, I am talking about link units, not ads. Can we click on those WITHOUT clicking on the sites displayed?
