Does adsense deactivate accounts after a certain period of activity. I was going to get back into adsense but it has been over a year and a half. When I logged in it asked me if i want to create an adsense account. Now.... I dont want to create one and then get banned because I already had one. How do I go about this?
Just email Google and tell them about your situation. They should be able to reactivate your account.
I have a feeling that they do cancel accounts after prolonged periods of not using Adsense. I'm sure I've read discussion of this somewhere else, but don't remember where. So, hopefully it's nothing to worry about, and won't be a problem for you and they will be able to advise you.
