As a keen user of both google adsense and an Amazon affiliate, I was wandering if Amazon's New Self-Optimising Links will be allowed on a page with adsense.

As the ads are generated to reflect page content it would seem that they could be classed as contextual ads. Google are very keen to point out, they do not allow another company's contextual ads on the same page. However as amazon's new self optimised adslink purely towards Amazon products, it's a slightly greyer area.

Has anyone got any info about this?

The self-optimized links haven't helped at all, mostly because it's the same overused banner format. BUT, Amazon just released their aStore beta. You can build full-page stores in seconds and they look good. I'm going to add some to my sites and see how it goes.

actually amazon links are like adsense with pay per sale and only one advertiser.
no wonder, that it doesn't work - it's absolute BS!
