Rotating Multiple Accounts

    If I remember correctly, AdSense TOS says that you can't display AdSense ad blocks from more than one account on one page at the same time. But you can rotate them. So you could alternate so that one page load would have all the blocks display ads from one account, then the next page load they would all be for a different account, then back to the first, and then so on and so forth. Am I correct about this?

    If that is the case, then I think I will use ad rotation to implement revenue sharing on one of my websites. However, I have a question about staying in compliance. If I use AdSense's referral ads to refer people to AdSense and then those people display their AdSense on my page using the ad rotator, is that allowed? I am worried AdSense might disallow that to stop users from abusing the referral system. I do not want to break the rules or abuse the system. Nonetheless, if I am going to refer people to AdSense anyway, I want to get credit for it if that is allowed.

    Also, while on the topic, let me ask about the referral rules anyway. I know you definitely can't encourage anyone to click your AdSense PPC ads. What about encouraging people to make a purchase by following your referral ads? If you only get paid if they make the purchase, it seems like Google wouldn't have a reason to mind, but I am not sure whether Google allows it. Do any of you know the rules about encouraging people to purchase something using one of your Google referral links?

    Thanks,
    Scott

    Your questions are difficult. I believe you should send an email to Adsense Support in order to clarify. Or maybe a more experienced & savvy Adsense publisher might be able to clear things up.

    "What about encouraging people to make a purchase by following your referral ads?"

    I suggest you ask this from adsense support.
