Will G ban you and make up any reasons because you generate small income for them? Does G not ban big publishers that earn them big money even though they're breaking TOS? If you got banned, how can you be sure that all the money you earn will go back to advertisers? Or is G keeping it?
How many threads are you going to start about getting banned? They have a system in place that isn't perfect but works. You don't need to start a new thread every three days about it...You are going to end up with an ulcer.
You are required to get a minimum of impressions. I'd say Google is very fair to smaller publishers and that they make no difference betweeen small or big publishers.
And it should be noted, I haven't heard of a single publisher losing their account because of too few impressions. It would only be fair if they decided to enforce it though.
Well, some big sites I saw was breaking TOS (but I'd rather not mention them) but still is up. Others here and other forums claim they were ban for simple things like: they put the word 'Sponsor' rather than 'Sponsored Links' above their ads, etc.
Each case is treated on its own merit. There are some publishers which have permission to operate outside the TOS but with good reason. This isn't unique to Google. Big spenders will always get better terms. Small publishers still get a great deal with no risk which isn't true about a lot of other programs.
I was thinking the same. Judge for yourself but I can see a pattern emerge (38 almost all in AdSense): Is G fair to small publishers? Filter Low Paying Ads? Chitika didn't accept my site! Will you get ban if you splog? Is Google not banning people for invalid clicks? How can you prove to G that your innocent? Who among you got banned besides invalid clicks? Does Google make mistakes about banning publishers? I think this is what Google detects about invalid clicks. Is this against Policy??? A Confession to Google Oh My God!!! Will I Get Banned??? A confession to Google that turned out to be fine. Thank you Google!!! Changing IP for dia-up and deleting cookies. Will it deceive Google? Dude, here's my advice. Chill out. Just work on your content for 3 months without worrying so much. And don't even THINK about cheating the system. Something you are clearly considering or have already done. Stay professional. Rather than asking another 10 billion of the same questions, just lay back and watch your stats for a few months and experience the answers.
I read somewhere in this post a few days ago that a site is being run by AOL has ads more than the TOS requires but just because G and AOL are like buddies, they play by different rules. I haven't cheated G since I got reinstated. I guess I'm just paranoid because of Adsense dreaded stories I read. What do you want me to post here? Yahoo? Chitika? This is an Adsense forum right?
The point was, by now we expect an AdSense paranoia related question from you every day. So we suggest to just ride it out and chill out. I your name says it all.
er you look like you're only here to cry and ball daily about AdSense. Get some mental help, check in to AdSense Anonymous, FAST!!!
Maybe he is trying to get his 50 posts in in order to run his ads here? (I am new, just thought I'd throw that in as a possibility)
Or just keep adding your questions to one paranoia thread...That way it doesn't clog up the AdSense section.
Are you new to using Google AdSense? Anyway, Google don't give free money to publishers without earning it themselves. Of course, for every cent that you (as publisher earns), they gain as well. Whether they ban big publishers or not, I believe they must be some underlying rules laid down for these companies. For Google, it could mean a great loss of revenue, but at the same time, they won't want to lose big customers as well. So, the story is... it's case-by-case basis.
