It's time to use PHP5!


« on: Nov 27, 2008, 08:51:51 am »

Today I learned that it's not easy to show adsense ads on a website according the TOS of google adsense.

As some people know I did some experiments with the Google Youtube API. After a kick start I got some great trraffic (and adsense earnings) for funniestvidz.com.

To filter the adult videos from that site I used some redirect based on some adult keywords, with the result that the domain get banned from Google search Cheesy

I gave the site a new domain and started again with much lower traffic of course. I this version I allowed only selected tags and blocked everything else. So no more redirects and I hoped I did well.

But no, Adsense has blocked my new domain!

So what I learned: Don't show adsense ads on dynamic pages where you're not able to controle the content!!! (adsense found some adult video detail page)

So if I see the webdigity site, I can imagine that people will shop up banners or links which are not conform the adsense TOS Wink

so pretty much anyone that scraps content like articles, links, blogs, news, videos from third party sites should beaware of the possibility of its contents breaching googles adsense TOS.

in a way i think this is good to help stop contents being reposted over and over.
but then say if u have a RSS reader in your site reading a third parties RSS u run that risk of being exposed to this problem which sucks big time.

Right you need to trust your content sources, if you need to start filtering content you should start removing your ads too Smiley

That's a problem I had my self, but google send me a 3 day notice before removing my site from adsense, so I had the time to make it right.

I remember me they did the same with the first domain...
the other possibility is that they didn't warn anymore Smiley

anyway it looks like that adsense knows more and more which sites has the "real unique content", last year I made 3 times the money with the same traffic Sad

No it is not that simple. A week ago I got a notice like that Smiley

And in fact this domain has been banned once, but back then I've sent them an email and restore it.

Google works in strange ways Smiley

I send always an answer, but I learned my lesson: The youtube data api s__ks.

but you need to work really hard to get your site act fine for adsense if you create that site to earn money Wink

It doesn't have to be dynamic content for it to surprise you. For some odd quirk of fate reason, I was reading an old post on my blog and revisited one of the comments there (the entry was over a year old). The commenter's site was originally OK but now it was for a porno site. eek!

Kinda strange with YouTube considering it now belongs to Google. They have to know that people want to use their API to make money and that the majority of webmasters use Adsense. Seems really dumb on their part not to figure out a way to make that work.

hehe, that was about my comment regarding webdigity Cheesy

This people from google are funny, the DON'T show ads on the adult section from their (DMOZ) directory and they don't show ads on "nasty" sections on youtube.
I guess the use the same alternative URL feature as their publishers but if they do it's of course OK.

I think you can filter those adult videos like they do on their own site with the age validation... not me I did enough for the little adsense money...

every year you need to work more to earn some adsense money. Other programs are much bigger earners since a while
