Is WP Blogging at Risk?
Subscribed to Blog Monetization topic on a French forum,
one thread discussed was about Wordpress's policy regarding Google Ads.
One reply to a post was roughly I never read the TOS because I am not interested
and I don't understand english!!!
Curious enough to go deeper because I run several blogs and never heard about any problem
running Adsense in a blog.
I took the time to review the Wordpress's TOS (terms Of Service). page ,
where I found nothing about Google Ads.
Clicking the link "You can check our page on types of blogs to get a
sense of the types of sites that are welcome on our service (or not!)." So on this quite hidden page I discover a THE real problem for Wordpress blogs:
These blogs are taking the risk to be BANNED: Affiliate marketing blogs: Blogs with the primary purpose of driving traffic
to affiliate programs
and get-rich-quick schemes (”Make six figures from home!!”,
“20 easy steps to top profits!!”, etc)... From the TOS page,I navigate to the Features page where
the Adsense Advertising policy is stated at the bottom: "To support the service we may occasionally show Google text ads on your blog,
however we do this very rarely.In the future you’ll be able to purchase an upgrade
to either turn the ads off or show your own ads and make money from your blog." Frankly it seems pretty risky as the company running Wordpress ie Automattic, Inc.
prompts their more than 2,356,032 users to use their complaints pages! Everyone involved with WP blog platform may consider to review their blog tactic
in order to avoid any interruption that may occurs at anytime.
I personnaly reviewed the Blogger TOS,
where as far as now, No restriction about these concerns where found.
