Will you be banned from Adsense if you place an ad on craigslist and you are using Craigslist to drive people to your site?

    You may get banned from craigslist unless you
    are truly not spamming and providing some service
    or item.

    Listen people, whenever you start a question:
    "Will I get banned from adsense if I....."
    Stop, read the warriors forum, and listen to what people tell you.

    There are sooooooo many good, correct, and rule-abiding ways
    to use adsense spelled out in this forum, that it would take
    a long time to exhaust them before trying anything else that
    you can come up with a what if question.

    I would forget craigslist.

    Have I tried craigslist? Yes. I got zip. It was hard to come up
    with ads. My real gut feeling is that craigslist users are more
    sophisticated than most blind-clickers. They are looking for
    something specific. They are not looking for websites to visit.
    There is so much more traction in doing the good things daily,
    that I would never even attempt anything else anymore.

    Thanks for the reply, I'm not worried about getting banned from craigslist even tho I do get several Adsense clicks from there, it's not the main purpose for placing an ad there, I worry about Google not liking it for some reason, however, I've not heard of anyone getting banned from Google because of placing ads on craigslist.

    Nice Andy Griffith site!!
