The question I'm asking, is whether or not Google can detect multiple ads on a page automatically? I'm assuming the answer is yes, shouldn't be too hard to monitor. But the reason I question it is I see a lot of websites doing it for long periods of time. My competitor has been for at least 3 months, but I haven't reported him or anything of that nature, I just do my own thing and fuel my curiosity here. :)
It looks to me that the TOS hasn't changed on this regard, but I'm curious how site's get away with it.
Many thanks in advance for your thoughts.
In other words, you can have 3 leaderboard adsense ads on one page, and it would be just fine.
I maybe reading your post wrong, but you stated you could have 3 leaderboards and be okay...According to the policy,
"Up to three ad units may be displayed on each Web site page, but no ad unit shall contain any advertisement in common with any other ad unit."
So I'm assuming you can only have 3 different ad styles, not 3 of the same.
No you can use 3 of the same style if you want. Basically the restriction is something that you cannot control, technically.
However, if someone wanted to be naughty, they could include their 2nd and 3rd ads via an iframe - and then get identical, highest paying ads three times on the same page - and that would most certainly be a direct violation of the Adsense T&C.
Thanks for clarifying.
