I have a site on which I display AdSense ads. I also use AdWords to promote the site.

I have the site listed as a blocked URL with AdSense so my own AdWords ads don't appear on my site.

Payment for the service provided by the site is processed by Clickbank.

Someone has used the Clickbank affiliate program feature to sign up as an affiliate for my site. Then, the person purchased AdWords keywords to direct visitors to my site through his/her affiliate link.

This person's ads started appearing on my site.

I guess to get this to stop, I would need to list Clickbank.com or Clickbank.net as a blocked URL. But that would block any other ads from affiliates for any other Clickbank products.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Bobby

On the other hand, since this other person is paying for the ads, maybe I shouldn't be concerned about it?

This is great. Its like a "rat race".

Leave it like it is, because this way you will not loose any visitor if she/he clicks on the Adwords ad - and - at the same time boost your Adsense revenue.

I guess this is one good example how Adsense and Affiliate Links overlap in a new way.
