  • Technically you can and should do anything you want without asking for anyone's permissions or advice on whether to do so or not.

    As long as something is not illegal, or against certain terms of services, then go for it and see if it works out the way you intended.

    If there's no revenue being created, then simply try something else until you find a formula that works.

    Asking anyone else but yourself if it's ok to do something or not will only delay your experiment.

    Plus you will get lots of confusing and contradicting feedback and opinions from some folks who have not sold a penny of income as of yet online. So in short, just go for what you want to try and see if it works.

    Then come back here and sell the book on how you made millions writing paid reviews on a blog showing adsense ads, which will be purchased by all those that told you not to do it.

      Hey Arnold,

      Actually I'm getting some emails asking for writing sponsored posts on my various blogs and hence I came out to make it another source of revenue from the blogs where the Adsense Ads are running and the fact is that I don't want to loose my Adsense Account so seeking expert suggestions.

      Thanks
    • A paid review is something entirely different.

      You could get into trouble by not following guidelines,
      especially if you are in the United States.

      This came up a couple of years ago, and sent online
      marketers on a tizzy. Not much has changed. People
      still lie, cheat, steal, to get a sale or promote a
      product.

      Even though I don't exactly like quoting wikipedia,
      "In essence it is now illegal to use testimonials that "...mislead consumers and affect consumers' behavior or decisions about the product or service."

      Is that what your "paid reviews" are going to be?

      Remember, people forget one of the biggest adsense TOS out there.
      In fact, people ignore it. But a very BIG adsense TOS is to follow
      all google webmaster guidelines. Google has made it clear what they
      think a person should not do with their website.

      Funny about confusing. People just shake their heads and say,
      "Sure, why not"? If it helps, it can't be bad, right?

      There is no good reason to use paid reviews. None. You had
      better put all sorts of disclaimers on them, certainly tipping people
      off that the review is paid.

      But, what do I know. I just value my adsense account and want
      people to keep theirs.

      We'll see how many haters I get...how I'm worried about
      nothing...sky is falling...
