Encouraging Clicks

Publishers may not ask others to click their ads or use deceptive implementation methods to obtain clicks . This includes, but is not limited to, offering compensation to users for viewing ads or performing searches, promising to raise money for third parties for such behavior or placing images next to individual ads.

In order to ensure a good experience for users and advertisers, publishers participating in the Adsense Program may not:

• Compensate users for viewing ads or performing searches, or promise compensation to a third party such behavior.
• Encourage users to click the Google ads using phrases such as "click the ads", "support us" , "visit these links" or other similar language.
• Direct user attention to the ads using arrows or other graphical gimmicks.
• Place misleading images alongside individual ads.
• Place ads in a floating box script.
• Format ads so that they become indistinguishable from other content on that page.
• Format site content so that it is difficult to distinguish it from ads.
• Place misleading labels above Google ad units. For instance, ads may be labelled "Sponsored Links" or "Advertisements", but not "Favourite Sites" or "Today's Top Offers".
