Examining how Google Adsense looks at this forum.

Well I tried linknig to a games site because my blog was about Games so technically its not violating TOS. It wasn't actually looking at the content, only ads for blogs came up.

 

But what is site xxx is part of site yyy like how you've done it?
P.S the master of universe has finally arrived

 

And departed.
Can we read between the lines?
His post was uncharacteristically brief.
Maybe he really doesn't want to talk about this.
There are a few things that I won't discuss, and I won't even say why.

 

Your post was even more ambiguous than his! Anyone have a fool-proof answer

 

Look, I've explained it countless times. Use the variable as you wish, since that's all it really is, a variable that is supposed to help legit publishers serve ads who have problems displaying ads relevant to their content. If you can't understand that linking to an outside site is grounds for termination, I think you need to start reading the book of common sense before thinking about a job as an internet publisher.

 

Thanks, I understand completely now, my fault entirely...

 

Amen.

And to clarify all of this...

DP is not in violation for modifying code because it seems that they are simply using the code that AS provides for framed pages. HOWEVER, I am not sure but I do not think that these thread pages are framed. Therefore, IF AS has in their TOS that using the frames code for non-frames pages is not allowed. then DP is in violation of AS TOS. If the TOS mentions nothing about it, then Dp is still not inviolation and those of us with dynamic pages could benefit from using the frames code instead of the regualr code.

I think AS needs to add somehting about htis to their TOS. I think they should allow those without frames but with dynamic pages to use such a code, either the same one for the frames or they should make a special code dynamic, non-frames pages.

But yes, linking to a completely different site (even if that site is your own and has similar content) should be strictly forbidden. This should be fairly easier to control. the bot would have record the redirect domain with the domain of the site. If it is different, a red flag is raised in the system. Can't be that hard.

 

This is so incredibly tempting, because nudging AdSense into displaying relevant ads on more of my pages would significantly increase my total AdSense revenue.

 

I wouldn't really do it though if I were you. I emailed the Google guys about whether this was legit or not, as I wanted to do this for my new "Link Now" directory that I am looking at building in the near future. Anyway, this is the reply that I got from them (I've included the relevant section only):

I had asked them if I could have a dynamic page on my new site displayed to the end-user and a copy of that page as an HTM file for the frames code ..... well, something to that effect anyway.
