I dont know whats happening, I got an email from Adsense a couple of days back that my site is showing with some copyrighted material and they asked me to remove the code from that link, which a thread on a forum, I did but from three days, my adsense Pageviews are coming only 4 or 6 or 11 a day, it was 2.5k-3k a day. What could be the reason? If they have banned my account, wasnt my Pageviews are supposed to be Zero?
your adsense account is not banned but your site is penalized and taken out of Google index. If you are benefiting from some one else's content that is a good way to make money.
So what should I do then? I mean would Adsense remove the penalty and will get my site into the index again?
don't fear just mail to google and say them that you have removed resticated page. provide them url you removed,and say them sorry ,it will not happned again.
