    I don't think you should worry about it, your not doing anything wrong IMO.

    so how do i list them on my site

    i was told in another forum that if i listed links as sponsors or recommended sites

    google would ban me for link sales


    to the person who asked why if I am not doing anything wrong

    I had google ban me once from adsense and I did absolutely nothing wrong

    i even sent documents with their wording highlighted and they still made me wait a year

    but of course it was a blessing because i discovered affiliate marketing and make over 10 x as much

    The only thing i can think of is the number of links that you have listed.

    I generally tend to put my links with a little description of the site : or put at a header saying that they are partner sites. I dont think they can ban you for that. N e way, just make sure that your page has enough credible content and that the adsense placements are according to the TOS. Make sure that your page is not just a link farm/created for adsense

    I agree about putting a description with each link. If the link looks more like a directory listing than a text link ad, then Google should be fine with it. Google looks more for a block of just external links with no text in between.

    so what you are saying is that you could make a block with a link and small description

    they would probably violate me for it looking like adsense
