Why? 1. It seems if a large percentage of your traffic comes from social bookmarking sites like digg or face book, you are running the risk of getting banned. 2. If a large percentage of your traffic comes from ads that are not adsense, i.e. adbrite. You are at risk of getting banned. 3. If you place image ads near pics. You are going to get banned. 4. Banned for having to many key words in your content. Considered as keyword stuffing. 5. If they dont like your content you get banned. 6. If the majority of your traffic comes from other countries other than the origin of the ads they have on your site. Watch your ppc average drop from say $0.20 to $0.01 and if this form of traffic continues you get banned. 7. If people are clicking on your ads to many times from the same I.P address you could get banned even if you don't no this is going on. 8. If adsense ads are on this thread I could get banned for using the word banned to much. 9. Banned for email marketing. 10. Basically if you try to promote your hard work your website you may get banned from adsense. Google is the big brother of the internet, guess what people it's only because we put them there. We could easily wipe them out over night if we so wished. I'm sick of kissing GOOGLE arse. It would'nt be the end of the world if I stopped using Adsense. In fact it may even be liberating, FREE at last. By the way I'm not BANNED but read to often in forum threads of people getting banned for what seems like, no good reason. That's my rant over with. What's your opinnion of GOOGLE?
Some of those are legitimate reasons to get banned. Like keyword stuffing for example, but some of the other ones make you go "WTF?" But I agree for the most part though.
Some of the statements are true, but some are not, like the first one: . It seems if a large percentage of your traffic comes from social bookmarking sites like digg or face book, you are running the risk of getting banned. I see blogs that have adsense are using digg or other social sites to get a lot of traffic and are not getting banned at all.
Well, some of it might be true because nowadays they are very strict. However, it's hard to accept point number 10.
Interesting. I will say, yes they are the big brother but... where would most of us be without them? Yes there are option to adsense, but they aren't as popular. The reason? Google adsense is good for all of us. At least when we hear about people being banned, we learn what big brother likes, then we kiss it. Make sense? I'm way too grateful for adsense to be mad. Again, a world without adsense is a world that I want no part of.
Goog wants you to promote your website on social sites, they even say so in a guide they wrote, I will try to find it now & post the link to it.
Yup. Social. Here it tis - http://www.google.com/friendconnect/?utm_medium=et&utm_campaign=en&utm_source=en-et-na-us-bizsol
If much greater percent of there overall traffic comes from say Digg and the google bots find this out. They will eventually get banned. Google wants only key word search engine traffic, for it's advertisers.
Traffic from social media suck, they decrease you CTR considerably. I have disable the Ads from Social Traffic, now only organic traffic gets my adsense ads.. I have no complain, somehow traffic from SE converts better than from social traffic...
I have never had any problems with google adsense, they have always emailed me when there has been a problem, as someone said earlier, if you dont like google adsense use something else then ! Woc
I must admit, i've had no issues with the big G, i see it as they're looking after themselves, i mean look how many people are looking to try and profit from google, they've got to look out for themselves to some extent, granted they may have quite a tight set of rules and regulations, but they're there to protect hardworking webmasters, i mean really, we're displaying their ads, but we'd most likely be making less money without them. Most of the time people complain, but they're usually breaching ToS, and the majority of noobs forget to read them. so they don't realise they're doing something wrong, but that's their fault, not googles, if they don't wish to adhere to the standards, then they should look for another PPC program for their sites, it's as simple as. We have the choice to use google or not ^-^
If you are keyword stuffing the first thing you will notice is the adsense ads vanish from your website. Then when you go to your adsense panel you will be greeted be an email explaining why. Tip Say my keyword is ( fish ) the optimum amout of use of this keyword is 3 times per 150 words. You can use variations of keywords also say fishing, sea fishing, fresh water fishing etc.... Also only use 2-4 keywords per page.

I wonder why this is true. When you get a lot of traffic from these sites you get smart priced for the ads. Does google smart price themselves then I do not think so I think they still get there fair amount for the ads clicked. Google is not god like most people think. google sucks
