If adsense were to ban someone does that mean that you can t even open another account in say your partners name ? How would google be able to tell, do they use an ip address or something to track you ?
umm umm its a bit complicated to say excatly what google looks.. but if u got banned..try applying a new account after a long time...some time they gave a 2nd chance
name, address, ip, credit card and many more. they check them all and it hard to cheat them again. ^^
Tradeya is right - they're quite thorough. I think they check your name, date of birth, address, IP address and bank details (if you supplied them). It's not easy to cheat the system and get back in - only way of doing it is to lie your face off which isn't recommended because the truth nearly always catches up with you!
But you can open a new account to your partners name. And i think there is no problem with that, even if the postal address is same.
In theory, I think you're right. In practice any such account is going to be under very close scrutiny by AdSense. The first whiff of trouble and it too will be booted out.
