Adsense: Is this allowed?

by GaltMotors Posted: 15 years ago 8 replies

I can't find anything saying it isn't, but wanted some advice... Can I place an image banner directly over text-ad unit or is that against TOS?

that would not be allowed. Anything manipulating the way ads are shown is not allowed.

Can't find? :confused: You mean you didn't look, right?

It took me about 10 seconds to find this:

  By image banner I mean google ad image banner... two ad units one set to text only the other set to image only.
  
  I know you can't line up images (non ads) with text ads

It is not allowed for that way. You cannot place an image banner directly over text ad unit.

  I have no idea what you people are reading.
  
  It is common to put a 728x90 ad block directly above or below the header
  image. Quite a dang good practice for many sites.
  
  There's a huge difference between that and placing images so as to trick
  the visitor into thinking the links are content, which is the TOS Dburk refers to.
  
  You could even put two ad blocks, one on top, one text, one image.
  
  The OP's question is not well defined. If it's just a mundane image over
  ad block discussion, not much in the way of any violation.
