Google AdSense Banns Image Near Ads

Advertisement

Google Adsense has officially announced that they will no longer tolerate Google ads near images.

We ask that publishers not line up images and ads in a way that suggests a relationship between the images and the ads. If your visitors believe that the images and the ads are directly associated, or that the advertiser is offering the exact item found in the neighboring image, they may click the ad expecting to find something that isn’t actually being offered. That’s not a good experience for users or advertisers.

Publishers should also be careful to avoid similar implementations that people could find misleading. For instance, if your site contains a directory of Flash games, you should not format the ads to mimic the game descriptions.

So if your AdSense display something similar to this, you might want to change it. For more details, click here.

    It think it’s fair enough both for publisher and advertiser.
