Does having link exchange on your blog go contrary to the Adsense TOS? I just read somewhere that having link exchanges on your blog contravenes the tos of google adsense. Does having URL links on your blogroll also count towards this rule? I have some urls inserted under my blogroll which links to some other blogs.... does that count as link exchange and thus go against the adsense TOS? thnx.
Wouldn't think so ... I've been collecting a link directory for years, some are two way link exchanges, some are one way, some are added by visitors, some are just added by me. If this was the case, noone with adsense would be allowed to link to other people's sites and all these threads on how to boost your PR wouldn't exist. The issue is when you use fraudulent means to boost your click rate.
Thanks Elf, I was worried reading somewhere that blogs/sites that are involved in link exchanges and also have adsense on their sites are violating their TOS.
Not a problem to exchange links, as long as the site linked too don't have content violating adsense's tos.
