Hi to cut a long story short i had a adsense account with google at the start of the year, for reasons over placements of the advertisements they banned me (didnt even warm me just emailed to say they were comcerned about hwo i was placing the ads and wanted to protect their advertisers) Anyway, since this i have set up a marketing company with a friend, its still legally registered as a sole trader even with the both of us doing it. I have read that some banned people have got accepted back into adsense by registering as a business which is what i would lke to do (of course using past experience to ensure things go better next time). The only problem i have is that whilst can provide a business account number for banking etc the business is regiserted to me and my home address as i work at home. If i reapply with this address is it likely to get turned down by google right away or would they consider a business application as a fresh account regardless of the name and address. At the end of the day i dont want to spend lots of time getting clicks then lose all the money if they shut down the account. Any help would be great; im not sure if i should email google and ask them about this or that may throw up loads of red flags right away
Be honest did you click your own ads? I have not seen one legit case of somebody getting banned over questionable placement of their ads. I have talked to people getting worried about it but never banned. So if you need help then you have to be completely honest and admit if you clicked your own ads.
hi no i did not, i used templates which were getting me in the region of an 80% ctr over a period of 7 days. I emailed google to say check the ip tracking on the clicks etc but just got a standard we have checked your stats and something is still dodgy reply. I can accept being banned for clicking on ads but not getting banned for having a high ctr. at one point one of the sites has a ctr of 400% random.
Just apply from another address in another name. Never use the same IP you got banned with and you will be fine.
I think that answer his concern, but the problem is how can you actually check in your cheque if it's not your own name?
No, they would not consider it as a fresh account. You will get banned again if you apply in this way. In my own personal experience, you should try to get back your old account. I did, after two weeks of e-mailing Google every day, so if you are serious about getting your account back and you are persistent, you may stand a chance, just give it a shot...apologize, be polite and let us know how everything turns out. All the best.
i think google need to retack how they bann and punish people i know this is he best way for them to bann someone's account money goes back as ADwords CREDIT remember CREDIT (money stays in house) and they continue on. I think that in the future adsense need to retract or take away money from invalid clicks and provide us with some software in the ADSENSE ACCOUNT that will help us to see our invalids or valids like other ppc compaines this will allow the publisher to be better and more successfull instead of feeling sad or nervous right before christmas payments are due.
thanks for the advice everyone; have just signed up with Oxado give them a go and see how it gets on, they seem interesting and based in the UK (part of EU) so paying in Euros is a benefit in terms of exchange rate; the dollar against the pound changes a lot more than the euro verses the pound. The mainly problem for a lot of advertisers based in the uk at the moment comes round to this; you get give or take $1.97 to £1 which is great if you want to holiday in the US but a pain if you advertising revenues are priced in US$ Without moving off topic too much, anyone have much experience with Oxado
just a quick one if anyone knows; if you are banned from adsense for one reason or another can another member of your family register an account from the same address and have the cheques made out in their name; or does google ban the physical address?
While you should have read their TOS about placement carefully. In no way, do they suggest anywhere that they will warn prior to banning someone. Some are lucky they do warn, for them I guess the violations are not major.
very true; the benfits of hindsight. Anyone know on the issue that you can register a different person a the same location as a banned account;
if you think they disable your account and it is unfair then why you need to apply for another account, they will do the same again By the way you can try your friends,relative address/name or just go for YPN
my friend here in DP register a business then use it in google adsense. i also use my registerd business when i join google adsense. rather than to use my name.
so i cant open a new account with a family member at the same address; so the best solution would be to use another address and still my own name?
No, the best thing is to do the right thing and NOT have a second account in your name or your parent's name, sister, neighbor, cat, dog, or fish. If you do, no matter how, Google will find you and trust me will ban you forever to eternal hell of fire and brimstone...errrr...well maybe NOT but will surely ban you from the program.
Hi carlgale, Find out with Google if u can put Ads on the site which showed ads with ur banned IP. If they have any issues doing so u may loose this account also.. Be careful.. All the best.
