A Few Questions About Google Adsense Policies
- SEO |
Hi warriors,
When I signed up for Google Adsense about a year ago I went over the policies quickly. Now I am going over them once more but this time in more detail. Because I don't want to do anything that is in violation, unknowingly. And I realized that there are a lot of things to go over and I need to understand all of them clearly to be on the safe side. Lots of things that I had assumed wouldn't be a problem seems that they would.
That's why I will ask a few basic questions about the program policies here. I asked them on the Adsense help forums as well but got no replies yet.
About Google Permissions
- Do I have to get permission from Google to have the word "Google" or any other Google services like "Google AdSense", "Google AdWords" in my posts/articles on my website(with Adsense ads)?
- Do I have to add a TM after unregistered brands and a ® after registered brands of Google every time I mention them?
- Do I have to add a generic term every time I write about a Google brand? For example: Google search engine, Google AdSense advertising service. Can't I have such sentences: "Google changed its homepage.", "I applied for a Google AdSense account.", etc.
- Can't we use the logo of Google or other Google brands like AdSense, AdWords, Analytics, etc. on our website when we are talking about them? (i.e., http://www.google.com/intl/en/images...sense_logo.gif)
- Can't we use screenshots of Google search results or other services like Analytics, Adwords, AdSense, etc. in our posts/articles? Most of the time, this is required for instructional purposes, for example when talking about how to use a specific feature of a Google tool or something like that.
- Can I have content ads on a web page that contains a video?
- For example I am talking about a (physical) product on my website, is it not ok to use the images of the product that I get from the official site of that product?
I am sorry if some of the questions don't make sense but I had to ask them. Thank you very much.
