Hi everyone,

I've recently decided to start making videos to include with my articles. Currently my articles have 3 AdSense units per page. 1 in the header, 1 in the body, and 1 in the footer. My Youtube video also has ads (it's monetized). I can't find a clear answer, is this allowed or would it violate the 3 units per page policy?

To be clear, I'm NOT asking whether Youtube videos are allowed. I've already figured that one out. The ToS states that you can have ads as long as there is a substantial amount of content in addition to the video. I am asking whether I'm allowed to monetize the video on an AdSense filled page. I'd really prefer to keep monetization turned on. I can always host the video locally if i need to disable the ads when embedded, but that eats up more bandwidth.

Any thoughts?

I've done that for ages without any problems. Provided you have additional text content on the page, it is fine.
