asked on

Do you think Adsense, etc will care if there is prize money involved?

Hi
The TOS of Adwords and such state that I can not pay people for clicks, obviously.
But, what if I state that a blogger may only participate in a contest if they are a massive, respected contributor?

Would that be a bad idea? That is not payment, it is merely a condition of users being expected to be seriously involved in the blog.
It should make the G-men happy, in fact. I am not asking for clicks, just requiring users to be exposed to the advertisements.

?
Thanks

Sounds to me like you are trying to 'game' the system.  Good luck with that.

What relation does your 'contest' and Adsense have with each other?

The only way the ads will be served is on pages where contest rules are read, topic essays are read, the home page is viewed, user about-info is seen,
and user posts are made relative to the blog topic, and user media is uploaded.
