New Additions to AdSense Program Policy
January 18th, 2007 by Scott W
Just thought I’d let all of you AdSensers know that Google AdSense’s program policies have changed. You can click here to read the new policy, or take a look at the sections that will most likely affect you here.
Referrals
This one I felt was pretty cool and should help a lot of people out.
Up to two referral units from each referral product or offering may be displayed on a page, in addition to the ad units, search boxes, and link units specified above.
Competitive Ads & Services
I feel this is a necessary clarification, as some people wonder whether they may even have other ads on the same pages as their AdSense ads. You can! Just make sure those ads are in no way mistakable as an AdSense ad or you’re in violation of the terms, buddy.
“Competitive Ads and Services In order to prevent user confusion, we do not permit Google ads or search boxes to be published on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colors as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.”
