    I 've got a site(not porn related, it is about women's health).
    One of my friend got a porn site with crazy traffic. He offer me a banner link from his site.
    My question is, will traffic from porn site get me in trouble?

    The traffic from the porn site starts emailing you pissed because it was not a porn site!
    Face it, if your site is about women's health, the traffic you get from a porn site will be like 99.9% men and not at all interested in the health of a woman.
    Forget having a link from a porn site.

    If you are getting lots of clicks on the ads from those visitors, you may become a good test case for smart pricing. Will Google drop the click rates to a penny or less because none of the clicks result in business for your advertisers?

    Remember, Google is the broker.

    Those sites in the Google link bar are your advertisers. They are your customers, just as much as your legitimate visitrs are your customers. Perhaps more so because they are paying you for the right to be on your site.

    Do you want your customers' costs to go up because you have a bulge in people who are just clicking their way out of your site?
