I discovered this tricky adsense placement on a recipe website introduced by a net friend.

Can you find the ads? (click on thumbnail to enlarge)

It is not easy to spot the ads without paying attention (e.g: search for ads). I believe the ads unit has a VERY high CTR. Moreover, the AdSense ads unit is placed at top of the page.

  • umm, isn't it illegal to conceal the urls? which is why there's such a big gap between the ads and the part that says ads by google
  • I'm not sure if it's even possible to conceal them, if you try to they'll just appear in black, that's what i heard.

  • Good Strategic :)

    @boringest: leaderboard ad unit does NOT show URLs. :)
    See https://www.google.com/adsense/adformats
  • seen a lot of these too but most of them place the ads on top instead of wha is shown here at the bottom.
  • I believe that's against Google TOS. There should be a clear distinction between content and ads.= according to Google.
  • oops...my bad. and the publisher's quite lucky that all the ads are in 2 lines only.
  • great ctr%, relevant ads, etc..

    this is good. But is it allowed?
  • Please don't try this "neat" trick because I believe it is againt Google TOS.
  • It's not against Google's TOS, the publisher at that site didn't encourage anyone to click the ads, nor did he edit the ad frame itself.

  • Nice strategic....but I think its still comply to Google TOS
  • If you ask me I'll say its similar to the picture beside ads idea.
  • i think that it is fine...great find.....
