Placing Adsense on unsupported language

Reaper-X | Mar, 2 2007 2 Comments Related Posts Share RSS Feed

Lately i’ve seen many website which is using adsense code on their site. Well .. if their website is using supported language in adsense, i think there’s no problem of course .. but if they’re using adsense on unsupported language ? well .. the Google TOS said that you should not use adsense on unsupported language because it’s the same as violating Google Adsense TOS and might caused you to be banned from Adsense (beside you’re not going to make money from it because the adsense will only display PSA ads)

And that’s why i ask the adsense team about this, because i’m planning on creating another site, and that site is not going to use supported language listed on adsense page

And here’s the reply from the adsense team :

Thanks for your email. At this time, we do not offer ad targeting for Indonesian; ad targeting and support is currently available for the languages listed here: https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=9727. If you place the ad code on pages with content primarily in an unsupportedlanguage, we may show public service ads or ads in another language.

Until we are able to offer this service targeted to your specific language, please remove the AdSense ad code from your site. We appreciate your patience as we expand our program.

If you have have concerns about sites which do not comply with our policies, you can email our specialists directly at adsense-abuse@google.com to help us investigate more efficiently.

From the above message it seems that Google adsense team did not read my email message carefully :P .. anyway … because google forbid placing adsense code on unsupported language .. i guess i’ll wait before creating new website using my local language :)
