Will Adsense ban Image Hosting Site if people Upload Porn Image there?

Discussion in 'Guidelines / Compliance' started by Wisden Writers, Jan 30, 2010.

    Hello ,

    I have a Image Uploading site and suddenly I find Boost in traffic , I just checked and found all visits are coming from a porn site. I found Many Porn Images are uploaded on my site and URLs given in Porn site.

    Now Problem is I have adsense running on that Site..Will it harm my site or My adsense account.

    If so ..What Should I do.?

    It will surely ban your account...

    Better remove those images and Mention clearly in your TOS that Porn images aren't allowed to be uploaded..

    If you had gone through TOS, you would have found the answer. Anyways, yes! Adsense will ban the account if you continue to use ads along with porn images. Take down the ads immediately.

    Oh..Thing is site was not getting visits till now..I mean not more then 100-150 visits a day..but now its getting about 5000 Visits a day.

    If i remove adsense , is there any good alternative ? Most of the traffic is coming from US.

    However I am removing adsense immediately.
    Will i able to apply adsense after some time again ?

    As No gallery is available so once you upload image there..You cant check it until you have its URL

    and then you should keep your eyes open when user uploading porn on your website, plus you can add some disclaimer that your site doesn't accept porn,... :D

    Try using adbrite back label ads instead if you want to keep the porn. Either that or remove the porn and moderate future images so they don't appear unless you approve them. To be honest any kind of random image site is no good for adsense, it only takes one nerd to report you for some dodgy picture, porn or even just a bikini pic that's considered slightly 'adult', and you're in trouble.

    You are responsible for what your users upload:

    https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=115995
    You have to decide whether you want to keep the pictures and monetize some other way or keep the Adsense.

    And if you choose to keep the Adsense you need to be constantly monitoring what has been uploaded to make sure you don't violate the rules.

    There are a few alternatives but I cannot recall the sites. Please make a search on forum/Google, I'm sure you will find alternatives. I guess one is called AdultAdWorld or something like that.

    Yes, google adsense will ban you if there is any Porn image on your site (even if it is uploaded by any user). As you mentioned, that you noticed a boost in traffic, well if porn images are getting you good traffic, and if you are not making anything good with adsense then simply let the users upload porn images and you can monetize it with adult affiliates or black label ads and can earn more...! :)

    remove hotlinks and give only thumbnails. but still it can be risky.

    best is to remove porn images now may be those porn site owners stop if they removed

    Thanks everyone for reply.

    I removed adsense from same day i created thread.. No knowledge about blacklable ads.

    I am getting about 1500 UV and 3000 pageviews daily even is fome ad sites can pay ard 2-3$ a day then its fair enough..

    My question is if i let this run for few days then I remove images and put adsense again..will adsense google still ban site ?
