Is Affiliate Marketing allowed by Google Ads.

[Contri]

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if it is possible to promote Affiliate Marketing campaigns that redirect to other pages while following the Google guidelines or if I have to do a blackhat campaign like others and use cloaking, many accounts etc.

Yes, one can run campaigns related to affiliate marketing offers / products, in Google Ads. For a better chance of success, the landing page must not indicate that it is made purely for marketing of an affiliate product or offer and the ad copies too must be appropriately worded. Lots (or some) of the offers / products related to affiliate marketing, are restrcited to run or not allowed to run in Google Ads (example : weight loss is restricted to run in Google Ads) and hence to run such niches, some (or many) advertisers cloak their campaigns.

Yes you can do it but depends on the niche, definitely avoid health - and also be prepared to get banned a lot. Bing is an easy one if you want to market in the health niche
