You can read instruction on adsense account about this.
If you are asking people to go to your site and click any ad, will be against the policies and conditions of Adsense.
You can use different useful links to improve you traffic instead of chat romm.It may harm your value in the eyes of adsense.

Thanks Usman for your sincere advice...
Can you provode me the link for reading google adsense rules,
if it is in your knowledge..?

Thanks

I don't see why it would be illegal. Depends on the content of your site and how you promote it in the room...if you just spammed a chat room people might get annoyed.

Yes, there is not a problem in promoting a site with help of chatting. You do not have any restriction related to chatting promotion.

It may just be against a site's terms of use to advertise, but not illegal.

Well, that depends on the blog you are promoting.
However, I don't think this will give you problems.

Jenie0109 said it best. One way to get traffic.
Too many times I think people refer to google as some
law enforcement agency. Whether google likes it or
does not like it does not make it against the law.
Would it count as a backlink? No. If you are in the
right chat room, why not do a friendly self promotion?
Nothing wrong with that either. I doubt it would even
be seen or cared by google. It's certainly not what I
would use my time doing, but to each his own. If
chatrooms are your thing, go for it. Just don't tick
people off or they may go crazy on the adsense ads
just to get back at you. People should concentrate
on other things the warriors forum gives you and not
try and come up with what ifs. The best place to find
out if google allows something or not, is on their
adsense pages. If you think google may stick you, then
think of something else before you try it. Like I said,
the warriors forum is absolutely filled with the right stuff
to be doing, that I would not even try and come up with
something new before I exhausted everything else. And
I don't think you are ever finished doing the right things!

Paul

Definitely jenei gave the precious advices but you should tell your experience after all these suggestions so it will be valuable for all others who want.
It is clear that chatting is not illegal. but is very important to follow the rules.

Certainly NOT illegal (i.e., against the law) but yes each chat forum has it's own guidelines as to what kind of behavior they tolerate. Read their guidelines and just watch what others are doing for a while to get a feel for what is acceptable behavior in the particular forum you want to participate in.

P.S. If you only want to tell people to visit your blog and not contribute any other meaningful dialog in a chat, then I don't think you'll get a friendly reception at most places. You need to contribute something the group deems worthwhile and then tell casually tell people about your blog. No hard sells in social forums.

Your suggestion is worth valuable for me and I agree to you at the point that I should tell people something about my blog initially then market through chatting later...

there are techniques to speak of--i mean , if u info people who are interested , then it is worh the time
but if not--if someone just keeping telling me something i don't like to listen at all , then i will be tatally annoyed . and i will probably never visit his blogs since then .

I am hoping that by illegal you mean against their rules. But I would assume it is all based off of how you go about it. If you just start going into rooms spamming, I would expect to get reported and banned.

If you casually mention it in the right situation, you should be better off.

Thanks

Hello friend
yes it is legal to promote your blog with chatting but i know it is a time consuming process.
talking about earning, blog urls and low CTR is not illegal
but forcing someone to click on your ads is 100% illegal
you must submit your articles on social sites and create back links.
i hope you "ll get benefit

what i only know is, it will only be illegal if and only if you click your own ads. How can someone could force you to click on your own ads on virtual messenger?! specially if you don't know them? threatening by using virtual guns?is that it?lol...and chain letters are sooo over...
