Hello everyone,

Next week we are launching a new online dating website which will connect people locally and globally. The website has some new cool features extending from the traditional online dating service. The service will be 100% free for people to join and use.

In addition to other features the website will allow people to upload their photos on Public and Private Galleries. Photos uploaded in the public gallery will be totally clean whilst members will be allowed to post adult photos in the Private gallery. And this where the issue is. I do not think that providers such as Google AdSense, Yahoo and Bidvertiser etc will allow me to have an account with them. Their terms and conditions are quite clear on this issue.

So what are my options? Are there other ad networks that are not that strict in relation to content? What I require is contextual CPC and CPM graphics and text ads.

I also do not wish to publish adult ads.

Is anyone in the similar situation? Your feedback and guidance will be highly regarded.

1/ If the ads are not on the pages with adult content, where's the problem?

2/ If the "adult" content pages are password protected, the Adsense/YPN crawler/analyser won't be able to access them to generate the ads.

Hi Chris,

You have raised a good point. I think the best would be to write to Google and get an answer, that way there will be no confusion left.

using adsense and adwords is a risk . you may loose your account . read the tos carefully

one simple answer: in your script, dont make just one big area for all the ads, yet divide it up to: adult, and regular. in the regular - place you adsense... and adult, dont put anything or some adult banners. hope this helped,
Roy.
