Banner Ads Without Getting Penalised?

[LukeHutchinson]

Hi All,

Basically I have 3-4 Biggish video autoblogs that I keep tabs on and they pull videos on my niche and are actually decent quality websites they are just autoblogs as they automatically get the youtube videos.

The issue is that I want to advertise my brandnew site on them as I'm selling a service in the same niche. I know that nofollow will not pass rank and should be safe but what is the absolute safest way to put banner advertisements on these sites without being penalised? I'm wanting the advertisements for advertisement purposes not link building.

I'm worried about getting 10k+ links from the same domain x4 and google not only noticing that but linking the fact I own all 5 sites..

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Adding no follow link is great to make sure that your website does not get penalized, how if you are too worried about it, you can create a separate landing page for it and get it blocked via robots.txt file.

Here is what google says -

Note that PPC (pay-per-click) advertising links that don’t pass PageRank to the buyer of the ad do not violate our guidelines. You can prevent PageRank from passing in several ways, such as:

• Adding a rel="nofollow" attribute to the <a></a><a> tag</a>
  <a>* Redirecting the links to an intermediate page that is blocked from search engines with a robots.txt file</a>
