LiewCF Tech Blog: Google: No AdSense Ads Below Blog Title

  • Home Biss · 1 year ago
    Liew,

    I'm surprised to hear that you just got to know about this little issue with AdSense placement. I thought you already knew about this.

    That's ok, knowing later is better than not knowing at all.

    Hello,

    I was wondering if I can take the advertisement.gif photo from you post and use it on my blog. :) May I use it? (this is the photo: http://www.liewcf.com/blog/wp-content/themes/th...).

    Thank you and please reply.

    @Free Software Downloads: yes, you can save the "advertisement.gif" image on your site and use it. Please do not hotlink to the image.

    5xmom mentioned this a long time ago. Thank goodness your site wasn't affected by Google by putting ads under your header for a while.

    Pardon me, but aren't the Adsense Ads for this post considered "below" the post's title?

    Just wondering as I don't have Adsense.
  • Chad · 1 year ago
    Understood, but wouldn't it just make more sense for Google to change the "ad's by google" image placement and put it at the top of the banners or make that an option in the actual adsense setup so that way all you would have to do is select "top" or something like that so that if you have ads placement under a title the ad's by google image shows at the top. Seems they could've made this a bit easier if it was something they were going to enforce.

    I knew of the issue as early as late 2007 but I was not quick enough to amend about 2500 webpages of my biggest website. My website was no longer allowed to serve adsense ads and I lost almost 70% of my earning from adsense ads. Luckily my account was not closed.
  • Deimos Tel`Arin · 1 year ago
    I plastered a whole block of text right next it, stating that it is an advertisement, is that okay?
  • Richie · 1 year ago
    woooooo..so next time i have to be careful about the placement more..huuuuuu
  • joanne · 1 year ago

    how about adsense below each post ? is it good ?
  • Rice Blogger · 1 year ago
    thanks for the tips on having the advertisements word in between title and ads

    what about setting a clear border?
  • Back Seat Capitalist · 1 year ago
    Has anyone had success moving their ads yet? % Increase? I've been looking for the right combination. I think my site might need some design touches to boot.
  • pening · 1 year ago
    BTW, it seems that you still have the adsense below the title. ;P
  • LcF · 1 year ago
    @pening: have you read the solution in the blog post? :)
  • pening · 1 year ago
    LcF, now I understand. I had also implemented this technique.
    Thanks body.

    :P

    LcF, I asked you about a week ago if putting arrows pointing to the adsense ads isn't against the TOS; i.e. you arrow in advertisement.gif.

    So... ?

    Nicholas
  • LcF · 1 year ago
    @Nicholas: i didn't get your previous message. the arrow tell, "this IS advertisements". why is it against the TOS?
  • Free Software Downloads · 1 year ago
    Well, this is from adsense policy:
    "May not direct user attention to the ads via arrows or other graphical gimmicks"

    Anyway, did Google agreed that this is ok? Did you receive an email from them that says "thank you for solving the problem via the advertisement.gif image"?

    I may be exaggerating, sorry... I don't even have 2 months at adsense and I want to be sure. Thanks for your help.
  • LcF · 1 year ago
    @Nicholas: I don't receive email from Google AdSense saying that putting ads below blog title against their TOS or the solution has been OFFICIALLY approved. If you are worry, then do NOT put adsense ads below blog title. I will update again if Google contact me.
  • Free Software Downloads · 1 year ago
    Ok, thanks for the fast response.
  • Car Hire|Car Rental · 1 year ago
    Thanks LcF for sharing the info.so where is another heat point instead of below post title?
    Any suggestion!!
  • Ads for Blog · 1 year ago
    I think putting adsense which practically 'surrounds' the article is best.. for example, top, left, bottom

    but it sorta 'pollute' the entire site though...
  • hipokrit · 1 year ago
    ermmm liew i saw you also just put it below title......dont just bother mention it here men...
  • M · 1 year ago
    Not true at all. If you care to read the TOS properly, they have shown "why" you can't put the ads underneath the title..

    It all depends on your Topic.

    E.g: IF your topic says

    "Click this"

    [ads]

    Post

    then you can be in trouble.

    but for normal titles, its okay!

    and after all this, how come u have ads like that?
  • harmedia · 1 year ago
    Once you fix the issues, how do you contact Google to ask them to take and look and re-index your site?

    If you know the URL, please post it here.

    Thanks in advance
