Ads in frame (not iframe)

(written by Asja)

The AdSense Agreement specifically says no iframes.

The FAQ says:

When a website displays someone else’s website within a frame or window on their own site, this is considered framing content. Placing Google ads on such pages is strictly prohibited.

What I’m wondering is if I frame one of my own sites in a regular frame like this:

<html> 
  <frameset cols="100%", rows="100%"> 
    <frame src="https://www.mysite.com"> 
  </frameset> 
</html>

Is this OK? (since it says “someone else’s website”)

      I also don't think there's a problem. In fact, there may be no problem with an iframe, if it doesn't cover the content of the webpage.

    An I frame is a problem , Ads inside an i-frame is considered against policy.

      Waqar is right. The AdSense Program Policies clearly says:
      Ad behavior

      "AdSense code may not be altered, nor may the standard behavior, targeting or delivery of ads be manipulated in any way that is not explicitly permitted by Google. This includes but is not limited to the following: clicking Google ads may not result in a new browser window being launched, nor may Google ads be placed in an IFRAME."
      When not sure, it's better to be safe than to be sorry.
