    Hi friends since last 5 months i am using adsense in my site. Today i got warning from adsense. i am pasting here. Please help me what to do?

    Hello,

    While reviewing your account, we noticed that you are currently displaying Google ads in a manner that is not compliant with our policies. For instance, we found violations of AdSense policies on pages such as http://www.orkutfunda.com/index/hindi_movie_songs/movie_index.php?movie=1920.

    Publishers are not permitted to make prominent use of "Google Brand Features" on sites showing Google ads. Google Brand Features include Google logos, product screenshots, or other distinctive features Additionally, publishers may not place Google ads on sites incorporating Google trademarks in the site URL or on sites that frame Google pages, including search results pages.

    As a result, we have disabled ad serving to the site.

    Your AdSense account remains active. However, we strongly suggest that you take the time to review our program policies (https://www.google.com/adsense/policies ) to ensure that all of your remaining pages are in compliance.

    Please note that we may disable your account if further violations are found in the future.

    Sincerely,

    The Google AdSense Team

    To help keep your account in good standing, we recommend all publishers review the policy guidelines found here: https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=23921

    Well it was a warning bell for you.
    Luckily you haven't been banned from google adsense program.
    Now the only think you can do is to comply with their policies and don't violate their TOS.
    Best of Luck!!

    Orkut is owned by Google Inc.You are using "Orkut" word in your domain name that violates adsense TOS.

    I'd say there's copyright infringement in the form of allowing people to download/listen to music without any proper licenses. The "Orkut" thing could be a problem as well.

    if you are having high earnings with your present site orkutfunda then i would suggest you to change the domain name immediately to some other and 301 redirect all the urls to the new domain.

    Just buy a new domain name.
    And set up a permanent 301 redirect from your old domain to your new one.

    Lucky, you weren't banned. :)

    well yeah...you shouldn't place ads on a website like www.googlesucks.com... in your case "Orkut". It's called TradeMark (TM).

    I think it is the issue of your domain name which contain word "orkut" i.e google product. So, you can't use adsense on this site. Try other ads network Friend ;)

    But, guys, this is not fine at all. Let us say I registered and used myownblogger.com, will they warn me for using adsense on a domain that has the name of a site that they own??
    This is not OK. If google continues to buy and build sites, then I guess they need to make them all subdomains from google.com or something.

    I don't think myownblogger.com could have any problem since this is generic words. It should be a problem if you registered a domain name with some unique name that Google own. For example, yourgoogle.com, yourorkut.com, etc. That is a copyright infringement without a doubt. :)

    It's sad :( But, no need to worry, you will not loose your traffic with 301 redirect.
    Remove the line 'OrkutFunda.com is in no way affiliated with Orkut.com' too for safety.

    Good Luck
