It happend to me - I got banned.

Well, I got banned. I have logs and everything, nothing out of the ordinary no clicks nothing. I don't get it.

 

That's bad. Don't be sad. Just move on.

Cheer up.

PS. G must have said that they found invalid Clicks!, am I right?

 

Thats what they said. But I have checked all of my logs and nothing. I run asRep and i went through everything and see nothing out of the ordinary.

 

I guess I don't stand a chance hu? I've had my account for 2 years never a problem now that I am actually making money I get banned.

 

How do you still show google ads in your sig links?

 

Just curious, how much is your current account before getting banned?

 

I don't know it just happened and they wont log me in and I got an e-mail about 1 hr ago that I have been banned. I guess it takes time for them to update. I think the whole thing is a mistake but whatever.

 

They owed me about 290 from last month and close to 200 for this.

 

Follow up question, Did you received any cheque before getting banned?

 

Yes, I've been averaging 100-200/month for the past 6 months.

 

Ic, did you email google about your issue for reconsideration?

 

Yeah but from what I have read here that will do little. Guess I'm going to have to hunt for another ad provider and move on.

 

Yeah, I think so. Try YPN or adbrite. Also another choices would be to apply for another adsense account and use one of your family member's name to have have the account for you.

 

Eh, im not going to mess with google anymore. They can keep it. I applied for YPN but I guess that takes time. Adbrite, I have them but the payout is so little.

 

That's the problem with adbrite. It usually take 2-3 weeks before you will get approved in YPN. Goodluck then.. But any suspicion who's clicking your ads?

 

That's another option, but don't put in the same site that you got banned.

 

Does everybody get approved or is it hit/miss?

 

Getting banned for invalid clicks doesn't just mean clicking your own ads or people click bombing you. It can also mean they caught you spamming, using auto/manual surfers or traffic exchanges that give people incentives for visiting sites. Did you do any of those things?

 

I used nothing, just had a lot of my articles on digg, but I didn't even do that.

 

i joined adsense elite team but the rules were saying at adsense no traffic exchanges manual/auto surf

is this true?

i got a letter saying saying i used auto/manual surf
