I heard that using a place like traffic swarm can cause adsense to ban you that somehow it creates invalid clicks. I also read on someones blog that traffic swarm was the only one they could use without getting banned. So is it OK or not?

If I say, it's luck would you agree? Here's a blog that have some info on this Adsense Made Easy

By the way, if you're looking for free adverting like traffic exchange etc. here's a comprehensive list. [MLM link deleted. Allan Gardyne, Admin.]
But it's not the best source of traffic. It's the least effective one. No harm trying anyway.

Enjoy!

Is it in the TOS?

MLM is a scheme where you get members under you and they get members under them and so on.. and for each members generated by your or your downline you get some sort of credit(or profit).
TS is a MLM scheme.

as far as about Google Terms I think I saw it recently when they updated their terms and conditions for adsense use.

I'm still confused. I posted TOS which is Google Terms of Service. All I was asking was is it in Googles Terms of Service that we can't use trafficswarm.

If I can't ask that then nevermind.

I don't think it is in the TOS specifically that you can't use traffic swarm. But google doesn't like spammy practices, and in most cases, I think traffic swarm falls into that category.

But the best way to get a definative answer, is to contact Google yourself. Ask them directly.

BTW, if you do ask Google, and get an answer, can you post it here? I am sure others would like to know the answer.

Maybe I've misunderstood something, but are you talking about using Traffic Swarm to display your blog? I think I've seen a few in there, but the best way to use Traffic Swarm is to display a quick and effective signup page, not for displaying websites and tons of content.

I'm not really answering your question, but there are traffic exchanges made specifically for blogs. If you haven't tried it already I like Blog Soldiers. You can find it at http://www.blogsoldiers.com/index.php

Good luck!
