Can somebody tell, what Google TOS says about using
AdWords ads, PPC, to promote a site, which
has AdSense ads?

Is it allowed or does it mean, that G will cut the agreement?

Thanks!

    Yes having Adsense on a site that attracts visitors by using Adwords isartitrage. Don't worry about the technicalities, just follow the above guidance. allowed. The only restriction is that the actual page the adwords drives traffic to has to be Adsense free - no Adsense whatsoever or the acount would be at risk and probably soon therafter disabled. This is what is called

    If you are planning an adwords campaign, test the market first before you invest heavily. Drving traffic to say a solicitors site using Adwords and picking up some well paid work as a result will be much more beneficial that using adwords say ta games site where you pay out more for the advert than you will ever receive from subsqnuent clicks on your Adsense ads.

    So the Answer is yes you can use both Adsense and Adwords, BUT you cannot have Adsense on LANDING PAGE (URL) your Adwords advetisements point to.

    CHEERS!

      So if this is right, it means that the landing page cannot
      have AdSense but the other pages of the site can, right?

      But if Google Team has accepted the ad and the landing page is
      AdSense-free but the other pages are
      monetized only with AdSense ads?

        The first post I gave you came straight from Google Forums from a Google Top Contributor (a Google Employee aka Customer Service (really)).

        I'll be straightforward. If you plan on using PPC to get visitors to your site so they can click on Adsense ads (NOT ON LANDING PAGE) I would highly suggest not using Adwords. You will probably eventually get black balled by the big G. That's almost, sort of common sense.... No offense intended. That's just how it works. You low ball paid clicks for higher paid clicks... Doesn't make sense in any businesses portfolio.

        If you want to use Adwords, find a decent CPA campaign.

        I look at it from different point of views. I'm working on some legal sites right now - you know these stupid legal "phrases" get upwards of $70/click right...? I could find 5cent 10cent 10$ words and bid on them in Adwords and get the traffic.... but I'd be making a buttload killing. That's how Google Adwords and Adsense has been so successful and prosperous... And remained that way. They don't mess around. If they give you the boot. You're gone.... No if/ands/or but's about it....

        So I wouldn't test them. Especially if you have an "Adsense" site. Go the route the rest of us go... SEO/SEM - The right way, the reliable way. AFTER all the hardwork, you're set and clear baby!

        Hope this is coherent and makes sense. I'm a tad tired but keep on typing!

    Youll get banned fast for driving traffic with adwords to an adsense site.

      NO this is not true.

      You can used Adsense on your site JUST NOT THE LANDING PAGE YOUR ADWORDS ADVERTISEMENT TAKES THE VISITOR.

      Is it suggested...? I would say not. If you're using Adwords to generate traffic... You should have something better on your site than Adsense to be clicked or bought. Atleast pop some CPA or affiliate links/banners...

      You cannot display Adsense Ads on the Adwords Landing Page. If this doesn't make sense... I give up.

    Google doesn't allow this because if you are profitable in this way, meaning AdSense revenue - AdWords cost > 0, then Google is loosing money on you, and Google doesn't like to loose money
