can adsense ban you for what this guy is doing?

Google earns money on the clicks too, so unless somebody files a complaint about fraud or misleading clicks etc., they most likely wont shut you down even if you do not live up to their TOS. As long as its a minor issue, you may just get a warning from G , so I believe its worth the risk for most websites.

Adsense will not ban for placing ads like that,
but - placing ads like that can cause many invalid clicks, that can get you banned.

please enlighten me instead of acting like a total twat, i did say afaik! so.....

btw i just checked i knew i was right in some way although his may not be all for content type ads, ppl like you annoy me with stupid remarks..... Currently, AdSense publishers may place up to three AdSense for content units on one webpage.

so "facepalm" yourself :/

If advertisers complain about low quality traffic from the site, Google will do something about it and it usually leads to banning

Can anyone tell where can I find a template with such placment.Please drop me a PM if you can provide such template

 

[t0mmy]

i'd say hes probably customized that template himself, could be easily done as a html/css template which is what that looks like it sure doesn't look like WP

You get 3 text ads however, you can place more than 3 if the additional are link box ads

yea i read the ToS properly and seen that, but good on you for giving a proper answer unlike the muppet above

 

[meannn]

Yes. You will be banned. I know because I have been banned for that. This is against the rule of ad mimicking. Your ads shouldn't be look like your content. You can google it and find that. My apologize, remove it immediatly.

i seen other websites with much more misleading ad placements. I never thought about strategically placing adsense though . it seems like its almost a 50/50 on if this is legal or not. to be on the safe side , i prolly will not change my adsense.

Interesting... I can get the site to load to see what all the talk is about.

 

[Nookie Monster]

Ok.... Just got it to load. Guess the site had a lot of traffic from everyone here.

Ummm.... ads in the header are a pretty much no-no. Yes the "Ads by Google" is there but it is in a zone that's not allowed.

If one is to believe his footer copyright notice then he's been doing this probably for a good while now. However I think that person is playing with fire.

All that said, if big G spanks him there are several other opportunities that could be explored with that ad space.

They may ban him for this.

What helps is the real dark text

 

[Nookie Monster]

Damn... Don't know why this intrigues me so much but it does. First off the site has an ad block ABOVE the main site page. The webmaster here is using psychology in the ad placements.

The users eyes go from the very top to the right in the header where the logo is. Then left to the ads, Then down center, and once again to the left.

If I didn't know better I would swear this is a guy I know with a PHD in psychology that does marketing.
