What is Brand Bidding and how can I avoid it?

Brand-bidding is use of an advertiser name or logo in your pay-per-click ads, without written consent from the brand.
This means you cannot use an Advertiser’s trademarked name in your search engine marketing (SEM or PPC) ads.

In addition, you must actually specify the Advertiser name as a “negative keyword” in your ads – so you don’t accidentally get their traffic.
“HOW TO GUIDE FOR NEGATIVE KEYWORDS“.

ArabClicks has a zero-tolerance policy on brand-bidding (unless explicitly allowed by the Advertiser).
This is a very serious offence that will get an Affiliate immediately blocked from ArabClicks – with no commissions paid.
