Show more than Content!


This is a quick notice to all our readers who have been noticing more than three ad units on our blog and started doing a research on their own and applied methods that are strictly forbidden. Only selected publishers are allowed to display more than 3 ad units per page. We became Premium Adsense publisher just last month. MBT and all blogs under its network can now display as many ad units as required. Premium publishers are given privileges of both direct telephonic and Email correspondence. We receive suggestions related to ad placements directly from an appointed Google agent via telephone and email. All of you are requested to kindly not experiment on your own by reading articles online and making wrong use of Ad management services like Google's DoubleClick for Publishers (DFP) or third party services like LakeQuincy.  In today's post we feel it's our responsibility to  inform you all and educate you with Google Adsense Terms of Services.

Can you Display More Than 3 Content Ad units?

You can display as many ads as you want once you cross a certain earning threshold and become Google's loyal and trusted publisher by winning the title of premium Ad publisher. But if you have not received any call from Adsense team with a message of Congratulations right on your Mobile phone then you better wait for it and avoid following wrong shortcuts from wrong people.

What are the wrong ways?


You will find a lot of debate on forums and blogs about whether or not services like DFP which enables you to display more than three Ad units are legal or not. DFP belongs to Google and DoubleClick offers a complete advertising revenue engine for end-to-end control and efficiency. Whether it may be DFP or DoubleClick Ad Exchange, all these tools help you to manage inventory across direct and indirect sales and make efficient use of every single impression. This services is largely recommend for those direct advertisers and publishers who want to control the Ads at advance level. Again this service is aimed for premium publishers who want to play with the numbers, sizes and formatting of Ad units and blend them more with their website design. Its not all intended for new publishers who are earning on average $100-$200 per month.
Third part services like LakeQuincy make use of algorithms provided at DFP and offer their own ad management control panel. Again these services should be used unless you have worked well enough with Google and receive advices, feedback and suggestions straight from agents.
Another method which is now banned by Adsense was the use of Iframes. Since each Iframe is a new window so publishers would often divide their page into different sections of iframes where each frame could display 3 ad units. This was the pop-up tradition which is now in complete violation of AdSense's TOS.
