i was checking some forums about CTR Theme and it turns out that... it actually works BUT, i'm not suer about if it's safe. I was checking the Adsense policies and i found out that putting the 2 336x280 blocks before the tittle could be a violation of the rules... so i need your advises about this. I love the idea to increase the CTR but , i want to keep my adsense account safe too.

Is there a guru over here to help about this?


Thanks in advance

    also the other thing i saw is... the adsense code is different and in the polices says that you won't modify in any way the adsense code....

    Site layout that pushes content below the fold

    Here's an example of site layout that pushes content below the fold, making it hard for users to distinguish content and Google ads.






    Again, please note that modification of the AdSense code is a violation of the AdSense program policies.
    For example, publishers may not:
    • Alter the height or width of an ad unit from the standard options
    • Implement the AdSense ad code in a "floating box script" or in a way that otherwise covers content
    • Use any means to force the display of more than three AdSense ad units on a page
    • Manipulate the ad targeting using hidden keywords, IFRAMEs, or any other method
    • Distribute ads in emails or software

    Do you mean before the title or after the title?

    I assume you mean after the title. While you can technically put 2 ad blocks side by side under the title it will look spammy to a Google Adsense manual reviewer.

    You must not look like a MFA (made for adsense site). I would simply put 1 adblock right under the title and wrap the article text around it. Then have a few paragraphs under that. Then put the second ad block and wrap the article around that. Add an image within the article somewhere.

    And to make your site not look like a MFA make sure you add a second source of monitization on the site. You could put an amazon widget or cpa offer or clickbank banner ad in the nav bar on all pages.

    And just make sure your site "looks good". I've never used the CTR theme so i don't know if it looks crappy or not. Only you would know.
