Ok. So I know certain words are filtered to shit by Google.
But today I searched for "bongs" while doing some SEO research(it's true, I promise haha) and noticed someone got an adwords ad up.

Obviously an anti-maryjane website. What does it honestly take to get an ad up for one of these restricted keywords? How intense is the review?

And on a related note, anyone know a reputable person who sells disposable adwords accounts that I could use for testing(with a refillable VCC)? I don't really want this jazz tied to my main one...

It's a similar reason why Circuit City gets to bid on 'Circuit City'.

However, a keyword like 'bong' isn't copyrighted, so you can email Google and negotiate with them. I was able to get a couple keywords in the past that were restricted through a few simple emails.

Oh ok. So it's that manual of a process. Won't work for what I was thinking, but thanks a lot for the reply. Back to the drawing board.
