If you familiar with Adsense, you must know about . Alternate ads allow you to utilize your ad space in the event that Google is unable to serve targeted ads to your page. By default, Google shows public service ads (PSAs) if no targeted ads are available.

You can create html code and make ads like Adsense but you can decide what ads will be show. Or you can html code for image and the link as destination if people click the link. Then save the html page on dan upload into your domain server. You must put the address where you upload the html page into Adsense code.

You can find how to insert Alternate Ads when you create Adsense code for your site. There is an option call Alternate Ads on More options Menu. You can choose which one you one to choose

thanks for reminding me...this has been on my "to do list"

It's not a good idea to offer "alternative ads" that look like adsense ads.

Quote from Adsense TOS...

Quote:

Competitive Ads and Services In order to prevent user confusion, we do not permit Google ads or search boxes to be published on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colors as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.

If you were using koydins look-alike format as an "alternative ad" on a page with 3 adsense units and adsense supplied ads for two of the three but displayed the alternative ad for the third unit - you'd be violating TOS.

It might be a good idea to try adsense look-alike ads on sites that don't utilize adsense - but I'd avoid using it as an "alternative ad".

I don't see where the conflict of interest is by making it look like google ads - yahoo ads look the same as do ads for 10 other ppc providers... the only diff is the part where is says "Ads by _________" in my case I make mine "Ads By URLsponsor.com" and I'm pretty sure users notice the diff - which is what I want

As far as I know... Yahoo ads etc - are NOT allowed on the same pages as G ads.

If I'm wrong... someone please clarify.

That is really a good tip. Plus this link to the resource is also good one.

Thanks for sharing it :)

Yes last time I heard they were not allowed.

In fact the thing was written something like this:

"No other contextual ads allowed."

Even I recommend using this.

i didin't see your site.

As long as the format looks different, google allows it..

Yes if the format looks different google do allow that
