If i had clicked my ads i would understand, but I didn't. I e-mailed similar sites to do link exchanges, added myself to top celebrity lists, directories, etc....didn't buy any traffic, no pay per click traffic, no click my ads text -- banned suspicious IPs from clicking ads, contacted google twice about odd activity, and all for what to get screwed after 4 months of building a site up and having no other revenue stream during that time from it. Just sucks and Yahoo is impossible to join. And on top of that what are the odds that google even responds before the 3 day weekend? For the best company to work for they sure seem to drop the ball when it comes to dealing with customers - a form letter and no reasoning - just blows
Don't send more than one or two mails a day - that just looks desperate. Send one good mail that gives the stats as you know it and reminds them of your mails to them concerning suspicious stuff and then a week or so later, if you haven't heard from them, mail again asking for news and possibly giving more info (if you forgot anything).
Hi, sounds like you did nothing wrong, if so I recommend that you read this reinstatement guide from yfs1 that gives advice on the right way to do things. YFS1 adsense reinclusion tips
I'M BACK BABY! I have been reinstated - google stated the message was an error and I am in good standing. Of course my account shows $0.00 and my channels are gone, but i am sure they can fix that.
Thanks! Strange -- all my ads are blank -- not empty ad space to blank space where the code it -- guess it will take a day for my keywords to cycle through and the code to jump back - that's my hope at least
Are you still going to get that $125 check Google owns you? I sure hope so! If they ban you and reinstate you, do they void your past earnings?
This is good news I have to say.... I was really starting to get worried about the invalid Google bans lately
Congratulations, youre back in the game Generally very few publishers get their account back from google adsense
yes i rcvd an e-mail about a pending payment for february 5th. So I am good to go! Track you clicks, be proactive if you see odd days, contact google and make them aware -- show them you are willing to work with them
Do you use any popunders, traffic exchanges, or other similar tactics for getting traffic? If so, these can potentially get your account disabled. BTW - nice site, I was pretty surprised by the Lindsay Lohan pic. Best, Anita
I would suggest you to email them asking them to release your payment. Further, you may also fill & submit reinclusion form if you beleive that the claim is false.
Its illegal to have adsense with copyrighted material, saying that, the images, espically with GQ magazine is in violation of that. Unless of course you own the copyright or have permissions to use thoes pictures? Pierce
