Best Adsense Integration I've Ever Seen

[golden14]

Guys this man has only done 6 posts on the forum but check him out at http://www.talktechno.com - THIS IS THE BEST ADSENSE INTEGRATION I HAVE EVER SEEN. If he changes the url from green to black YOU won't even notice it. This is cool beyond belief, 'uber cool adsense' (tm):)

[talktechno]

wow a post for me :o

lol thnks alot :D i would of made the page better if i had time but been abit busy with uni :p Thanks alot for the advice onda green to black.

:D

it will look better if the "Advertise on this site" on the add units are taken off.
by the way, the images on the left side of the add units is it ok with google?

[nukemdomis]

Yeah that is great placement. That must have taken some patience and time.

I am experimenting with the same idea. In time we will all improve.

Google probably does not like you putting adsense on a domain that has their TRADEMARK name in it (Google). I suggest you scrap that domain before their lawyers decide to take it away from you!

[wwwSENSERELYcom]

It's against AdSense's ToS because of labelling on top of each adsense block. If it was allowed don't you think me too I'd put CHECK THIS AND THAT above all my adsense blocks?!?..

Talktechno, that is a great job you did back there;)

Looks pretty bad in Firefox, alot of overlapping content..

[marketingsyndrome]

I have a member who had same integration who got the following email from Google.

"Publishers may not implement Google ads in a manner that disguises the ads in any way, for instance, by formatting neighboring content to look similar to the ads, or by making ads look like games or forum threads. Additionally, publishers may not attempt to associate specific images with the individual ads appearing on their sites. Such an implementation may confuse users who assume that the image is directly related to the advertiser's offerings."

I really don't see a big problem with your site, but I think Google watches accounts carefully who has violated TOS previously. (This person happens to get a warning previously)

The funny thing is that I have a similar sites that got OKed by Google rep. I think it also depends on who reviews the site.

Just my 2cents.

May I politely ask if you really sell any products on your eproducts2u site? I personally would run a mile from a site with graphics like this, but then all you need is someone to click on the "buy" sign.

I am genuinely interested if you have had any success with affiliate sales with this type of website?

BTW - I do agree that talktechno has done an impressive job at fitting his adsense blocks.

To clarify Google's official position on images alongside Adsense is: "publishers must place a visible border between the ads and the images in order to avoid confusion and invalid clicks". This Wordpress "Adsense Beautifier" plug-in allows auto insertion of images along Adsense ads, and gives you an excellent professional result of how to place a border

BTW. if you have a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS it's pretty easy to do this manually as well. Just scroll down the plug in download page at Adsense Beautifier (http://www.supriyadisw.net/2006/07/adsense-beautifier) for the different image/adsense formats available.

And to "freelancer" who made that comment that "talktechno" should remove the "Advertise with this Site" - unfortunately, this alone would be a reason for a Google ban or a warning at the very least. You are not allowed to change any of their javascript.

BTW. Eproducts2u -- thanks in advance for taking the time to reply and appease my curiosity about your type of affiliate website succeeding?

But then again, some might think you're biased. :rolleyes:

My personal opinion? Your example isn't better than the one mentioned at the start of this thread.

Wrong, this can be removed via adsense admin.

Senserely is correct.

Wow, that is good adsense location. Going to implement to my blog as well.

I stand corrected - thanks to both members who cleared the cobwebs... and mostly for taking the time to update me by providing the actual link

Personally, this is one of those ways of blending that I find borders on "deceptive" The clear intent here seems to be to make the ad look like a regular link and hide it in among all the other ones by making it look as similar as possible, thus potentially confusing the user. At least the required border makes it stand out a bit more, as it should if it's on the up-and-up.

Fortunately my blog's enjoy a healthy level of traffic and generate decent Adsense income without such strategies as images alongside Ad blocks.... but then my blogs are a couple of years old.

In the spirit of encouraging those new to internet marketing, perhaps we should not be so quick to trash or disqualify what works for others, if in fact they use the very same techniques that are employed by the so-called Adsense gurus!!

Technotalk appears to have a achieved a good fit for his product base - and it is working for him and as such it is a positive thing. He has done an excellent "starter's" job for his particular niche, and we should ask: "since when has marketing not involved some sort of deception"... If one can be bothered to look hard enough, you will see plenty of such "deceptive" Adsense optimizing from the big Adsense earners... without it, and healthy traffic figures one does not earn big Adsense dollars.

Technotalk, perhaps you should protect your Adsense account, and confirm with Google that your Adsense optimizing is legit... that is unless you already have done so. It's great to see people really taking action, and having it work for them.

my two cents worth!

[trealm]

Maybe it's just where I'm coming from, but I think the big question to ask is what is the overriding purpose of a site. To make money or to convey information? There certainly can be overlap I won't deny that at all, otherwise I'd completely remove adsense from my own site :) However, too much of what I'm seeing out there now is sites put up strictly to make money with not as much thought for the user/surfer.

Just because the techniques are used by the "gurus" (whatever those are) doesn't make them sacro-sanct or "legit" unless the whole purpose is just to make money, in which case I daresay we've lost the true sight.

If the articles were different I'd be more lenient, but when the first three that I check are complete retreads of other articles elsewhere online, I take a different stance. Combine that with placement and technique of hiding the ads and I get suspicious.

Of course he haven't, couldn't possibly have without Adsense telling him to change the layout, regarding my previous post:

"

"

It's just undiscovered and just waiting for a warning from adsense, no ban i don't think so if he complies after receiving the warning.

[Chopped Liver]

Its nto against TOS :p

I'm confused by some of these comments, can someone confirm that this is acceptable by Google (or not)?

In a similar vein, does this site of mine comply or am I in violation with Google's TOS - see here: http://www.dodge-truck.us/

Thanks,

Thanks,

Your site looks good to me. In fact I read the whole page, very interesting. I actually clicked on an ad because of interest in the ad.
The google ads were visible as ads, where as the talk techno ads really blended into the site, which I just skimmed over. I did not click any ads because of no interest.
My conclusion is when someone surfs a site, they are looking for something of interest if found they will interact there, if not, on to the next site.
Thus the beauty of the Internet, It Works!

There's a good thread on Digital Point on the images next to ads question:

I believe the jury is still out on this one and would love a Matt Cutts clarification on the issue.

Everything I've seen indicates that it is required that the ad be set apart from the images with a line. Thus, if you follow that reckoning, the site is not safe.

[Traveltext]

be aware that Google continues to tell many publishers:

Images above the ads
If it looks like the images are part of the ads ... place a visible border between the ads and the images, to make it clear that the images are not being served by Google ...

I don't see too many visible borders on the examples mentioned in this thread, so publishers would be advised to check their individual cases with Google.

As the starter of this post the first thing I can say is that I must apologise for my prolonged absence from the forum (alas my e-bay business has expanded beyond my wildest dreams and writing an e-book about it and how to triple your profits has been taking up all my time). The second is the techno's images are NOT against google TOS. If you check out his site again you will notice that the images are not directly related to the Ads. All Google asks of you is that any images do not unduly attract people to your ads. Thus as an example if you had a site discussing ferraris and you ran adsense on it with a picture of a Ferrari next to each ad then this would fall foul of Googles TOS, BUT if you were running a site on how to make money from the internet that had adsense on it and images of Ferraris or Luxury Boats etc, all of which are indirectly related, rather than directly related to adsense then this would not fall foul of G's TOS.
It seems this varys from site to site and as none of us can admit to working for Google I recommend - If in doubt ask da G' men.
(One and all - glad to be back, now before I go to the 'Critique my site' section, has anyone seen my bottle of acid???)

Jaguar ads next to pictures of cars is enough to be misleading especially when the images aren't detailed enough. If the person from google who was checking out the site happened to be having a bad day, I'd bet a warning would be sent out. The whole site, though, seems to be an MFA, though, to me. Articles apparently taken from other sites and deceptive ad placements. Might not be his intent, but that's the way it comes across to me.

Hi,

Yes, I enjoyed looking through the site and trying to "spot" the Adsense ads!

Very nicely done site - thanks for posting it for us to view.
