Can a link page be mostly AdSense links?

I know you can have AdSense links on search pages, but can you have a links page that's mostly Google ads, like this..

*Banner/text link*
<H1>Widget links.</H1>
*Adsense ads*
*Text link/description rich in keywords related to the site.*
*Adsense ads.*
*Text link.*
*Adsense link.*
*Banner/Text link*

Sort of like a parked domain. There are no links from other PPC programs. (Domain's been hacked to death over the last three weeks, so I would like to make some money from the 6,000 pageviews a day by redirecting all the dead links to the PPC links page.)

Without any content you will lose that traffic if it comes from SEs.

If you get traffic through clicks from other places I guess your users will be pretty unhappy to run into ...just ads.

There will be no targeting of ads without proper content.

So, why would you do it in the first place?

There's 31,400 dead URLs indexed, so I might as well try to make money off those URLs while there indexed instead of just giving the visitors 404 File Not Found messages. The links page is having no trouble filling in all three Google boxes with ads related to the site.

Why don't you just forward the URL to one of the domain parking sites like Sedo?

Never hurd of them before. This way the page is actually related to the site. *Reads TOS.* *Adds about 75 links to the page to make it a real links page.*

No Google ad may be placed on pages published specifically for the purpose of showing ads, whether or not the page content is relevant.

From the Adsense program policies:
[google.com...]

No Google ad may be placed on any non-content-based pages. This includes error, login, registration, "thank you" or welcome pages.
No Google ad or Google search box may be displayed on any domain parking websites, pop-ups, pop-unders, or in any email

I'm aware of your current situation Jesse, but I don't think Adsense is your best route -- unless you have over 750,000 page views, then you want Adsense for domains, [google.com...]

Otherwise, there are plenty of domain parking services available that aren't through G. :)

Are there any better PPC affiliate programs than SearchFeed that allow you to place a search result page on your site?
