ad blocks per page

How many ad blocks are allowed per page for adsense premium publishers? Aren't there any limits?

for eg. - I see [10] ad block on this page -

You're right, there are limits and that page is crossing it. That site has ten ad units on the page. If you look at the source code you'll see they're using iframes to sneak those into the page (or iFrames if they coded that in a mac, lol).

However, it's not fair to publish the URL here and expose their issues in a way that may result in them losing their AdSense account. It could be they're newbs who don't know better. The best way to discuss something like that is to relate the details. It's best to simply say "I found a site with ten ad units on the page. Is this allowed?" The URL is superfluous. ;)

Also, I think the first rule of premium publisher rules is "don't talk about fight club" So you probably won't get an answer.

I've seen 21 on a page before.

I've also seen a publisher that when you click on a SERP, you are presented with a page with nothing but adsense on it, then get redirected 15 seconds later.

If someone uses

iframes to sneak those into the page ...

can they still be

newbs who don't know better

?

If so, would that make them "sneaky newbies"

But then again rather than fret over how many ads asomeone else puts on their pages, maybe time would be better spent working on ones own site.

Yes, you are right and I really don't worry much about what others are doing, but the question stemmed from the fact that I am not a premium publisher and was curious to know whether theren't any limits.

Normally, if you put more blocks, adsense doesn't display the additional blocks but martinibuster is right, they seem to have used iframes! May be, they are newbies and not premium publishers.Whatever it is, I am not hungry.
