    If you use adfly on your adsense site then be prepared to lose your adsense account.

    More and more people complaining of their bad traffic source.

    Stay away if you value your adsense account..

    Yes! Google strictly prohibited any hidden links or any types of url shortening. better be cautious.

      Ummm you do realize that Google actually runs a link shortening service, right?

      Ad.fly displays a page before the traffic can click through to whatever page they were trying to get to.

      This traffic is prohibited by Google.

    bit.ly is a link shortener

    while adf.ly is also a form of a link shortener except that the user clicking the link will be sent to some sort of squeeze page first and the user has to click SKIP in order to continue to the target URL.


    traffic coming from adfly ads will get you banned from adsense but does nothing in terms of rankings.

    Traffic? Sure you will get plenty
    Ranking? Not very much No
    Running adsense? Expect to lose your account soon.


    Use such service for Brand awareness and expect low conversion with it. and never add pages with live adsense tags

    Did anyone stop to think that the OP may be asking if it was safe for him to have outbound ad.fly links (to make money) or would having them decrease his ranking.

    Im sure e never typed the word adsense.

    Hi,

    I use adf.ly for 'download' links from YouTube to my blog. I don`t pay to get traffic via adf.ly.
    I also use adf.ly for the download links on my site (mostly to zippyshare mediafire etc).

    Is this a red flag for Google too? This would mean you could play serious tricks on any competition, aint it?

    In adsense TOS, they don't say what you can and what you cannot. They want YOU to responsible for your traffic. Adfly is known for sending junk traffic. Better to avoid them.

        Then what if, I disable all my adsense ads before using the adfly.. in this case I'm using adfly advertising.. just to give the website a little bit of traffic boost and visibility.. the cr and conversion does not really matter at this point. So is this acceptable?
