    That "Featured Listings" seems to me like labelling your ads and...I don't think Google allows that

    I imagine this is what the labelling thing is about:

    Labeling Ads

    Publishers may not label the ads with text other than "sponsored links" or "advertisements." This includes any text directly above our ads that could be confused with, or attempt to be associated with Google ads.


    Thanks for pointing this out

    on my site, I have blended and adlink unit right into my menu, it is almost invisible.. no borders, same colour, and above it, the main category is "Links".. I emailed google, they verified and said it's ok..

    for reference, you can look at it at www(.)wi-cn(.)com (can't post links yet, my 7 days aren't up)

    Wow! That's some excellent blending. I'm impressed. Personally, I don't think you can blend enough, and I've never heard a peep from Adsense ever condoning it.

    thanks.. I guess it's the fact that I had Links above the adlink so, even if the adlink seem like a normal part of my menu, it was "labeled" accordingly
