How many Google AdWords promotional codes can be used?

Will I get in trouble with Google for using AdWords coupons sent to different email addresses?

• I have many Gmail addresses and at least several Google Analytics accounts. Because of this and the activity of each, I frequently get coupon offers for Google AdWords sent to the different Gmail accounts. Just today I received $300 for $100 and $100 free offers, sent to different addresses. I'd like to use these, however I don't want to get in trouble with Google for abusing their generosity. I've previously used at least a couple of these. What is their policy on this? I'd like to think their algorithms are smart enough to realize that even though the Gmail addresses and Google Analytics accounts are different, I'm just one person and that in a worse case scenario, I'd simply be unable to use the coupons when I tried. However I don't want to lose my AdWords/AdSense/Analytics/Gmail accounts.

• Answer:

  If you use more than one coupon for advertising the same website, or different websites of the same company then it could be a problem. Google allows every company to use just one coupon with one billing address (if you have more company, and different billing addresses, then it is ok). As I know nowadays Google takes very serious these coupon rules. Google doesn't allows you to advertise the same business with more websites with the same advertising approach either. So you can not be more then one paid search result in a searchquery, unless you have two websites with cc. 50-80% different content (different prices, target group, products). If your major revenue comes from Google, then I think you shouldn't defy the rules. It has just short-term benefit, but in the long run it isn't worth it.
