Rotating Adsense Adcodes, can we do it?

Considering the Ad-sense board has been down for quite some time now, I decided to go ahead and post here, because I wasn't sure where else to do so.

Me and my friend have been working on a website together and it's doing pretty well. It was originally his website and I was just helping him get content for it, but we've decided on moving things along. I'm a web-developer and I wrote him a very detailed mock-up and design that will make his website much more engaging and also increase his social activity ten-fold. He's got a fairly large fan-base, and is in a very, very small niche. Isolated almost, and it was completely untapped.

We've agreed on "alternating"(More like randomized) advertisement codes using Javascript where there's a 50% chance his advertisements show, and a 50% chance that my advertisements show. We'll both be using adsense.

I just wanted to make sure that this doesn't break the ToS of adsense or if anyone has had any direct trouble with it. I haven't found anything in the ToS about it, but google gets pretty ban-hungry sometimes.

i think you can do this, with a WP plugin. I've never heard about rotating Adsense being against TOS.

There's some WP plugins that can do this, if your site isnt on WP then there's some free PHP codes (google it) for the same.

Thanks for the information, the website is completely custom made, but I can easily make rotating screen myself using php/js. Just needed to know if it was "legal"

yes you can do that.rotate the adsense ads.you can do it in imacros.I also can do it given it is in wordpress

The best way to figure out is to explain your "problem" to Adsense support or ask on their forum. Only them will be able to give you a correct answer. If I were in your case, I wouldn't try without thei consent. You're not doing anything bad, but they are easy on the ban trigger.

I agree. With adsense you need to be really careful, and ensure you are using compliant marketing strategies - so asking them if it will be ok to rotate your ads across the two PARTNERS google accounts make the most sense in this situation. If you try it, and find out it is unacceptable - it will be on the tail end of account closure and funds forfeiture - no fun at all. Check with them.
