About UsThe times, they are a-changing, and AdSense users should know that it also isn’t the same anymore. Yesterday, there were some new policies introduced with which people who depend on AdSense for income probably need to become familiar.
Now, don’t panic - the world hasn’t been turned upside down (or even, in contrary to what some news reports might lead you to believe, overrun by swine flu-bearing sickies). The fresh policies mostly amount to some tweaks and clarifications.
As explained on the Inside AdSense blog, “[A]ds may not be formatted in a way that makes them indistinguishable from other content on the page where they appear.” Also, “Google ads, search boxes, and search results may not be placed in emails, as well as alongside emails.”
Another thing: “With this new policy, publishers aren’t permitted to place ads, search boxes, or search results on, within, or alongside other Google products in a way that violates the policies of that other product or service. For instance, this would include placing ads on sites which allow users to download YouTube videos, which isn’t permitted by the YouTube Terms of Service.”
And finally, Google would continue to appreciate it if you don’t use the company’s logos and trademarks.
Easy enough, right? So do some fine-tuning if need be, and then go back to business (and/or buying surgical masks and hand sanitizer) as usual.
