AdSense and TribalFusion On The Same Page - is it allowed? Is there any specific TOS that forbids it?

There is no prohibition against any ad serving network. The prohibition is against specific ads that mimic the look and feel of AdSense ads. I would recommend that you read through the AdSense FAQs and Program Policies so you'll have a clear understanding of what is and is not allowed.

The main thing to remember is that Tribal Fusion may be running AdWords/AdSense banners, which means you could end up "double-serving" Google ads. This is easy enough to avoid, however; you just add Google.com to Tribal Fusion's list of advertiser domains that you want blocked.

Thanks Europe for visitors!

Do you run tribal fusion and adsense at the same pages, at the same time? anybody does? Or will I be the first?

Europe have you ever seen tribal offer google ads? I have not and I usually serve a ton of impressions a month. Are you sure they are doing it?

I've seen quite a few sites running AdSense and TribalFusion simultaneously. The TF ads have always been banner ads.

Tribal Fusion and at least one of the other banner networks were running Google AdWords banner and leaderboard ads last summer. I don't know if they still are--I haven't been paying attention, since I dropped out of the traditional ad networks after I discovered that I could make 10 times as much (and that's a conservative estimate) with AdSense.

That's absolutey correct!

However I have some empty space in my web site design and I would like to fill it with something, and I have heard that second to AdSense is TribalFusion - as far as payout is concerned. So, what is the final verdict: is it safe to put TribalFusion on the same pages where AdSense is present? (of course I don't want to endanger my AdSense account)

Kinitz, I'm afraid if the answers that have already been provided to you here (which I have found right on the mark) aren't satisfactory to you, you should ask Google directly.

I have Adsense alongside a rotation of ad networks: BurstMedia, Tribal Fusion and Fastclick all in one page. I'm just careful that Google ads offered by the networks on CPM basis are not selected

Kinitz - Blue_Fin is correct in stating that you're welcome to use ad networks on the same pages as your AdSense ad code.

As was suggested by europeforvisitors, make sure to specify that Google ads not be rotated into the banners served by your ad network. Otherwise, you may end up double-serving the AdWords ads, which is against the program policies.

(On another note, I wanted to let everyone know that I won't be posting much over the next little while, as I'll be on vacation. I'll be looking forward to catching up on all of the discussions when I get back!)

Wow! I never expected anybody from Google answering my little problems. Thanks a lot!
