It has come to our attention that invalid clicks have been generated on the Google ads on your site(s). We have therefore disabled your Google AdSense account. Please understand that this step was taken in an effort to protect the interest of the AdWords advertisers. A publisher's site may not have invalid clicks on any ad(s), including but not limited to clicks generated by a publisher on his own web pages, clicks generated through the use of robots, automated clicking tools, or any other deceptive software. Practices such as these are in violation of the Google AdSense Terms and Conditions and program polices, which can be viewed at: https://www.google.com/adsense/localized-terms?hl=en_US https://www.google.com/adsense/policies?hl=en_US Publishers disabled for invalid click activity are not allowed further participation in AdSense and do not receive any further payment. The earnings on your account will be properly returned to the affected advertisers. Sincerely, The Google AdSense Team what to do now ? i had like $7 in my account ....dunno what happend they just disabled it
Attempt emailing them. I guess you are out of luck being such a tiny publisher, I dont think they will even take a look at your case.
Where's the guy who says "not this shit again" i miss him. He's the highlight of every adsense thread. I predict, in the next hour, we will get 4 posts saying that google is banning too many people lately, one that they will start getting sued because of it, and 2 who wish yahoo's version would go public soon.
I had the same mail about a week ago , account blocked I complained that they should not think i would take the risk losing a $500+ monthly income by clicking on my own ads what would get me 2$ extra and they reinstated my account ... (that took them 3 days) I asked an explanation and they refused to say what happend ... stating they wanted to protect the algo that does the blocking what i understand i had a look at my stats when the account was deblocked and they seemed as normal as always the fact that i have been over 500$ a month for 8+ months without a problem is probably the reason why the gave me credit ... but i have to say ... My first reaction was ..Yahoo ... it is a risk .. a google with a loose blocking hand
Well now we know the magic keyword text to reinstatement. Everyone who got wrongfully banned should just send google the same message and they will be auto-reinstated.
How long did it take you to make that $7.00??!! It might not of been a good idea to join AdSense... yet.
I heard that they are really strict about grammar. I heard that if you send them an email with no punctuation then you are a gonner for sure. But hey, what do I know...
I don't put adsense on a site until I'm sure it's going to at least be bringing in a few dollars a day. Or at least that's my policy now. That might seem a little high for a bare minimum, but I target moderate-high-paying kws so the traffic threshold is lower than you might imagine.
Very good point. Alas, no one bothers to build up a visitor base anymore. It's make a site in the morning, slap Adsense on it in the afternoon, then in the evening, sign up at a forum and ask why they aren't making any money.
For people that are getting kicked for too little revenue, do they send the same invalid click email?
In my experience, especially if you are running something that could be considered non-profit, the bigger guys (not the BIG guys), I'm talking legit webmasters with a lot of time on their hands, are more willing to link to you when they think you aren't in it for the money. Not having adsense for a little while might help you get links faster, especially if you go around contacting people.
Does Google also remove sites who are generating very less or no clicks ? My site is not generating any clicks. Shoud I remove the adsense and try it after few months when the traffic gets a bit more ?
If you remove ads and its NO IMPRESSION - hence inactive account -> you face the same danger. Work out fast for more TRAFFIC.
