2 Easily Violated AdSense Policies

I have read Google AdSense Policies several times and I have to admit that I am not a good reader. Today Sushith from http://brokencodes.blogspot.com commented on my blog stating that I have made an AdSense mistake by placing a label "Topics" above an AdSense ads link unit. After reading this comment I quickly went to www.google.com/adsense to read again the AdSense policies. And yes, Google doesn't mention about label. Here's what Google said:

Publishers participating in the AdSense program may not place misleading labels above Google ad units - for instance, ads may be labeled "Sponsored Links" but not "Favorite Sites"

Well, it seems that Sushith is right. I have made an AdSense mistake that can lead to my account being disable. So I decided to remove the "topic" label placed at the top left sidebar of this blog to comply AdSense policies fully.

You may have spent a hard time optimizing your AdSense ads to make the most money from AdSense. But if you use label with AdSense ads, you can only label "Sponsored Links" above the AdSense ads or link unit.

Another AdSense mistake that is easily made by AdSense publishers is placing AdSense ads in second level domain names that contain the word "Google". Some of the example of second level domain names that use Google are:
