Banned before my first cheque

    Today i recived email from google with standard "invalid clicks and/or impressions" email. That shocked me. I contacted google 2 days ago to check if my placement violates TOS. I got my answer back to remove images above ads. The same day i removed images on most of my website pages but not all and today i recive this email.

    I used only one ip (static) to access my website and i'm 100% that i didn't (and noone from my computer or ip) generate invalid clicks.

    I'm about to write to google and as far as i know you only get 1 chance to tell your side of story. So i beg you guys to help me with my email. I hope i will be able to submite it today so again please anyone that has any experiences with complains to google or anything post here and help me get this sorted.

    I hope that with help from DP comunity i will be able to restore my account (i heard that few complaints were succesfull)

    If you guys need any more info i'll post it. And belive me i'll be checking this thread 24/7 ;)

    BTW I just got home and found my first cheque:(

    PS i need help writing this email becouse my bad english and low experiences with this.

    PSS: what the hell is "Website's audience" on apeel form

    write them as much as you can about your webpage and your traffice. Give them all the details. Just tell what you do to promote your website and from wehre your site comes. Try to explain them they were all genuine clicks and nothing was fraud. Go in detail. I was on of the publisher who got account back after banned.

    At least Google sent your check before they banned you. I believe it's normally the other way around.

    could it be that someone just did it on purpose? lets say clicked ur ads loads of times knowing u will be banned for it?

    or.. maybe u have bots traffic hence the impressions are invalid...

    just write to them and say that traffic is genuine, that u work hard on the promotion and therefore the site is becoming popular and generates more and more clicks... good luck!

    You can write as much or as little as you wish.

    From what I read here and on WMW, your chances of being reinstated is slim to none.

    Sorry.

    "pics" are not content? I guess then Google wasted their money on developing the images.google.com... ;)

    "Invalid clicks" is Adsense's catch-all phrase for banning. It means a lot of things, but they always use the same thing to express it: that your clicks aren't valid for various reasons. Plus, you admit to being 17, which is not of legal age to join Adsense. That in itself is a violation. Since you're still young, I advise you to spend more time reading the rules in the future.

    They use invalid clicks and or impressions almost always when banning....you can try by telling them you don't know about clicks and send them your server logs as proof.....they might respond to you and give you the correct reason you were banned...which i'm sure is your age and or the pics on the site.

    jackburton2006, you always sound too harsh. Take it easy on the kid. He is only 17.

    I wish I had the time to help you write that email but I have so much stuff to do.
    You can always hire a good english writer from the DP forum and let him/her write you a nice and convincing email to send to Google Adsense. Might not make a difference but you never know unless you try it.
