1. Don't sell beta keys in an online auction, message board or anywhere else (the opposite applies as well: don’t buy beta keys, they won’t work). We gave you that key and for you to go re-gifting it. No re-gifting! 2. Don’t put our ad code on sexually explicit sites. It’s very naughty. 3. Don’t duplicate (*cough* STEAL *cough*) content from other sites. We want to be with someone original. 4. Don’t place images next to ads. It’s dishonest and we want to be in a long term relationship with publishers everyone can trust. People will think those images have to do with the ads, and when they find that the site they’ve been directed to has nothing to do with them, they’ll be pretty miffed. FULL TIPS HERE: http://www.ypnblog.com/ BONUS ONE FROM THERE: Don’t use inappropriate ad targeting. If your site is about flowers, it’s not cool to be targeting finance. (ha ha. Microsoft Adcenter will do something similar when they will target business men on their lunchbreaks to try to get them to buy their sweethearts flowers....) ha ha Part 2: You can vote about Yahoo Sarah's true identity while on the YPNblog: So, just who is YahooSarah, really?

BTW, don't post images next to ads? It has been historically proven that images next to ads improves CTR. Is it against Yahoo TOS?
According to an email I got, I was to remove all images next to any ads. I called the yahoo number, and a woman told me, NO IMAGES ALLOWED! Even with a border around them, according to the new TOS..... so I removed all my images. They were on my sites for months, and last year I was told they were fine, but as the woman stated this is a new TOS revision. Strangely, so far my ctr has not decreased any after removing the ads.
