few questions about google + ypn

    • is it alright to have YPN on the same page as google referral links?
    • is it okay to have YPN on a page with a google search box?
    • is there a minimum amount of content that needs to be on a page that has adsense in order to avoid getting banned?

    I know it's against TOS to have other contextual advertising, but Google referral links don't count as contextual advertising, that's why I'm asking.

    according to the Adsense TOS, referral links are to be treated as ads - therefore, no YPn on the same page (read the TOS & policies yourself.. it's right there)

    as for item number 3: if there isnt any real content on the pages then your visitors would have no reason to visit - unless you're making some krappy MFA site.. regardless, if there isnt any content you prolly wont get good ads anyway. I have a few pages with very little content and i dont even bother putting ads on them..

    yuup..i agree with tearabite...content is king.

    and of course u cant put YPN wid adsense as YPN is also contextual, and hence agaisnt the TOS. However u can put it on a page which does not have adsense ads?

    You cant have anything YPN on any page that has anything Google..

    you can put them on separte pages within your site - just not on the same pages.

    hmm.... what about Google search box + YPN?
    Is the search box to be interpreted as ads?

    about the content - this site isn't dependent on organic traffic, so it isn't a problem
