    in my Site i am running a promotional campaign where uses can refer new users and can earn reward.

    Is it OK with Adsense or break/bend any rule/ condition of AdSense. i am not sure about it. i posted the same in google AdSense forum also but didn't get any reply for it.

    For me, it's just like affiliation program or referral program but i am not sure if google will treat it as paid to visit the site.

    right now my site is not 6 month old so i am not having AdSense on my site but well i don't want to get banned the moment i add AdSense on my site.

    Any Info. on it will be very helpful for me. Thanks to all who spend time to read this post and cared to reply.

    It looks Ok to me. As long as you are not asking them to click on your ads its fine. But do confirm it with google guyz.

    Not sure without knowing your campaign in details.
    If the campaign or content regarding programs which compensate users for clicking ads or offers, performing searches, surfing websites or reading emails, then it is not allowed

    it's not about clicking on ads or reading mails.. its just like MLM.. if you are a user.. get one more user to register on the site and get reward.

    I would just be careful. Even if you do contact Google, and some other employees decides to ban your site, they generally aren't going to bend over backwards to get back online. I'd probably guess you'll never get back online.

    i search the net and got this. need your advice on it.

    Google: The Google Adsense Policies do not restrict any publisher from showing Google PPC or Google Image ads on MLM websites. However, Google mentions that ads from other companies – be it MLM company or any other source, should not be displayed in a way to confuse the reader that such ads are also from Google.

    Better send them an e-mail and us about it just to make sure you're doing with Google's permission.
