The Forgotten Ad Format -- Try It!

I did. But befor get banned i better put the line between until i got an answer.

 

Nice advertisement.

 

It looks like my old half banner setup worked better than this http://www.daily3gp.com/ what i have at the moment.

 

Hey, mightyb, Google has no problems with you running their ads alongside adult-themed ads like Adultfinder? I'd be careful. Some of those pictures can get very overtly sexual.

 

I run them in none nude mode. I cant see anything wrong with that.

 

i tried it before without success, its depends also, how is your layout designed

 

Nice Post.

 

nowadays im sseing this banner format much in the websites, do you use different coloured borders in this format or all the bg and border same as your website bg

 

To inform you. I got an answer from the adsense team. It's not against the guidelines to place the half-banner under the headline.

 

Thanks for checking that out for us hansi!

 

Very nice placement, I bet that is a money-maker for you!

 

I use it with a simple layout, no border, background same as surroundings...

Check it out at Joomla Downloads!

Not much of a money maker though...

 

medusa, I would get rid of the .gif arrow. That's a TOS violation m'man.

 

If the arrow was pointing up that would be debatable lol But yea, it does look like its against TOS.

 

Arrow pointing into the ad is definitely a TOS violation!

 

Thanks for alerting me! (I did not reply immediately as there was some error on the forum and I could not post.)

I sent the link to the Google Support Team. They reviewed it and suggested that I replace the image with something that does not point to the ads. I have already done that...

>> Joomla Downloads!

I was under the impression that if there is a line between the ad and the image, it was ok. In addition, the image was a download link and the image suggested a download link too!

Anyway, thank you. Look at your cPanel for a green rep

No worries. I only know it's a TOS for sure because we had two other cases of this in this week alone. And hey, thanks, me likey green reppys.

 

very nice and informative post. will change some layouts right away and let you know what happens in couple of days.

 

I started a site (AdSensebits.com, but I have sold it since then) based on emailing Google. I can assure you that they will answer you promptly. It's your best bet if you're concerned. When in doubt, email Google

 

It can give highest CPC ads if set properly (first most) but ctr is always bad for me.
