Will bringing in traffic from banner exchange sites count as valid clicks for AdSense

Will bringing in traffic from banner exchange sites count as valid clicks for AdSense?

e.g. free-banners.com

 

Every kind of paid traffic is against google's TOS.

 

then how on earth are you meant to make money from adsense?

 

If you mean from a banner ad on another site, then it s fine. You can also get organic traffic. No paid for traffic schemes are allowed.

 

The OP's question is confusing me too a little...

 

You cannot directly use the google ad as the banner that is being exchanged. However you can use banner advertising to advertise your own site.

 

That's simply untrue. Google is fine with paid advertising. it just doesn't like any shady advertising like traffic exchanges. They also recently changed the policy to enforce the AdWords Landing Page Quality requirements on AdSense publishers who advertise. I blogged about it here: http://www.admoolah.com/blog/index....-landing-pages-and-three-link-units-per-page/

Banner exchanges should be fine, as long as there isn't anything fishy going on.

 

i don't think its Legal.........google say's you can't say any one to click on your ads!
