http://www.jadedneo.com/main.phtml That's not allowed, right? Also, this: http://www.sorpiland.com/newnews.php?&mindate=20070802000000&maxdate=20070802235959 Both sites are breaking the rules, right? Or am I wrong?
^^ Thats if the puppy story is true. Get people to donate you know, if your puppy is sick. You'll make more than a click on adsense.
Both are in violation, but at least the first one isn't trying to be coy about it. Does the person who made the second site really think he can fool his visitors into having a fun time clicking on his ads? Oh yippie, sponsored ads, I love those!
Well, the second also encourages visitors to click on the ads. It's breaking TOS even if it doesn't say "click the ads".
You are correct, both are encouraging their visitors to click ads, therefore both are breaking the TOS.
i saw on a french site they said "click on the ads to support us" in french... hmm is this legal... does google detect french words?
not sure really. At least I've seen some sites (eg. PTCs) that have "Clicking on non paid ads won't increase your earnings" in their TOS. Not legal. Might take longer from them to detect it, but they'll probably get noticed.
