    Hello guys.
    I would like to ask, in tube sites, is that legal to put advertisement before the video start?

    I mean there is some window that write: "30 Seconds to video start" and there is close button.

    Is that ok by Google, or they ban users that do something like that?

    im not sure what their policy on this but i think as long as your not forcing the user to click on them then you should be fine

    If you are not FORCING the user to click the ad, then it is OK.

    If you are saying something like "click the ad and the video will start automatically" WITH a 30 second
    unlock feature. it IS OK.

    BUT, if you are saying "You >MUST< Click the ad to continue or view the video" then you are breaking
    the ToS.

    you the answer is is SHOULD be legal, as long as your not forcing the user to click anything.

    I'd need to see it on the site you are talking about to give a view, very difficult talking about video in text (like this)

    Google dosen't recognize your ads placement unless visitors click accidently They measure your clicks if it is clicked by accidently as lots of time they may will ban you so Nobody cant give you proper answer yes or no it is your luck make sure your ads isn't placed where visitors click accidently on it
