Wrapping Sexy Images Around Google Adsense

October 15, 2006 · Filed Under Contextual Advertising · 6 Comments 

Google Adsense allows publisher the freedom to put images around adsense ads on an especific blog. According to the adsense team it was ok to use it provided that it was within our moral judgement. Kind of abstract right? This is what the Google Adsense team has to say:

You’re welcome to place images near the Google ads on your site. However, we ask that publishers not place misleading images near Google ads or use images that appear to be directly associated with the advertisers and their offerings. Such images may draw undue attention to the ads and prompt unintentional user clicks, thereby artificially inflating advertiser costs. As you may know, drawing undue attention to ads is in violation of our program policies, so we’re unable to approve the placement of all images next to Google ads.

I wonder if these publisher ever thought of the consequences, its kind of like cheating as we all know these sexy images really do attract visitors. Breaking adsense simple rules is not even worth the risk, I guess these publisher don’t think long term. They are simply impatient.
