Google Allows No Any Click Encouragement on Adsensed Pages

When blogger Fyre responded to Google AdSense compliance notice received earlier due to a paragraph of one of his blog posts encouraging users to click a specific ad (not Adsense ads), asking Google if it was permissible to single out and mention clicking on specific ads that were not a part of Google’s AdSense program.

He was replied "NO" from Google:

In response to your question about encouraging language, our program policies do not allow publishers to encourage users to click on advertisements, regardless of whether or not the encouragement is ad-specific or whether the targets of the encouragement are Google ads or not.

Days earlier, in another email Google also clearly explained:

Publishers are not permitted to encourage users to click on Google ads or bring excessive attention to ad units. For example, your site cannot contain phrases such as “click the ads,” “support our sponsors,” “visit these recommended links,” or other similar language that could apply to the Google ads on your site. Publishers may not use arrows or other symbols to direct attention to the ads on their sites, and publishers may not label the Google ads with text other than “sponsored links” or “advertisements.”

So make sure you are not violating the Adense regulations and it is important to keep in mind that you should not intentend to apply any unsolicited language to encourage your visitors to click Ads in the page where it is participating Google Adsense program.
