I got banned from Adsense. =[

ah wtf =[

Hello __,

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
- a publisher encouraging others to click on his ads
- automated clicking programs or any other deceptive software
- a publisher altering any portion of the ad code or changing the
layout, behavior, targeting, or delivery of ads for any reason

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




i recieved a warning last week, i took down my ads straight afterwards..i don't get how there could of been MORE "invalid clicks"??

 

Have you tried emailing them?

 

did you promote your adsense site using myspace?

 

i haven't emailed them because i have nothing to prove i didn't click my own ads other than the email i sent them about my CTR being higher, and my email telling them i removed the ads. would they help any?

 

Just send an apologetic (not whining) email to them saying you'll look after your account better in future.

 

Appeal it and explain it (come on, did you really click on those ads?) or ask them to investigate.

If you're lucky, you may get another chance.

 

Perhaps your cache was never updated and the ads were still visible.

Could be wrong though.

 

did you do any bulletin promotion with the site if so was there a huge increase in earnings/ctr? this could of raised some alerts

 

Donna keep the ads down for now and follow AdSense Reinstatement Guide by the one and only yfs1.

Good luck

 

Good luck, I now know they are wrong sometimes and don't always reckon their mistake.

 

thanks everyone. i appealed it yesterday morning so i guess only time will tell. i'll keep you guys posted

 

In the meantime, you may want to try applying to the Yahoo Publisher Network.

 

google is the worst company, they dont have people they have robots!!

 

i can't apply for YPN caus i live in ireland =[

 

Hi City Girl,
It is really sad ..Hope u get ur account back..All the best..
Keep us posted on update..

Regards,

 

I GOT MY ACCOUNT BACK
ahh i don't remember ever being this happy, lol.
it took them less than 24hrs which surprised me too.

 

Did they ever tell you which site got you banned in the first place? I would suggest not putting your ads back on the Myspace site, because chances are that's the culprit.

 

nah they didn't tell me. but i only had ads on one other site (which was making nothing basically) so yeah it probably was that

 

Congratulations donna-x.

I suggest that you install adlogger on your site.

 

yeah i am going to i hadn't installed it before as i was on blogger but i moved my site now so i will
