Well i personaly belive that if something happened im a victim of fraud. I havent clicked my own adds or asked anyone to do it from me now acording to the adsense forum The e-mail it states that your site posed a risk of generating invalid activity, and this particular phrasing is used when there were problems on-site, such as inappropriate ad placement, and / or unsuitable traffic source (usually this means non-organic traffic, and especially a heavy reliance on social networking sites such as Facebook). We have been seeing more such cases, and the impression I have is that it often has to do with the traffic. It doesn't necessarily mean that your site has actually generated invalid clicks. For possible on-site problems, forum members can point them out if you were to post your site's address here. However, as traffic is often the causes of this problem problem, you'll also need to disclose in relative terms whence your visitors come: what are the proportions of organic and non-organic traffic
Since i belive i havent done anything dishonest to deserve this or maye have been victim of concurent site or blog . How do i exactly fill my apeal properly since im really new to this and where do i get the exact information about visitors and ip adresses i need for the apeal ?
Without seeing the site in question it's not easy to explain in any more detail. Your site appears down?
Sounds like you need to stop using FB or other large volume social networks, G is probably very well aware as much as anyone, that social traffic does not convert that well most of the time, G will always protect their advertisers from useless clicks, this is how they make their millions. Try and get traffic using other methods, then apply to have your account re-instated
Yes i want to try geting acount reinstated .Thats why im asking what information regarding my blogg can i collect since im kinda of a newbee dont know what to write in the aplication in the part where you get information about your website regarding traffic and ip adresses .
Well maybe some people deserve to get banned other simply fall victims to flawed system. My website didnt have much income or visitors for that matter. An anonymous guy let a comment on my blog saying took em long enough so maybe he nuckeclicked me. Im wondering if among all those banned people some are so enraged that they simply take their revenge upon others.I did apeal but from what i learn odds of recovery are almoust 0 so im wondering what are the alternatives, because im shure google is not the only one with add market ?
The reason is "a risk of generating invalid activity" or saying your site is providing low quality click
These days there have been lot of such cases... There are lot of dumbheads sitting in G support... But, you can't help it! If your blog had lot of traffic then you could have had chances of contacting support and getting a positive response, but if you're a new blogger then forget about it! It's survival of the strongest even on the Internet - if you Ad impressions are > 50k/day then G' would give a damn, otherwise not!
Well the site had overall of 15 clicks for 680 visitors lol maybe they shut down new blogs in order to keep the market straight cause too many blogers means they concurent the allready established
you mean to say 680 impressions and 15 clicks.. visitors is the different thing( unique ,returning)... well i had about 800+ pageviews (236 visits) and 8 clicks for march 2011 and traffic came from # Direct Traffic 101.00 (42.80%) ,#Search Engines 82.00 (34.75%) ,#Referring Sites 53.00 (22.46%) .reffering contains facebook web directories ,forum and my previous blog... but mostly from facebook bcoz i used to promote it there . today adsense account for march will be reviewed by google and estimated earning will be calculted. lets hope i will not have bad experience like many publisher having these days..

Yes however nomather how many hours you spend researching it seems google uses "a risk of generating invalid activity" for excuse not to pay people . And some of those even sued them in america and won because when a time for trial comes google lawers are unable to provide any proof that the owner of the site or blog done anything wrong !
Well I agree with you! This can be applied to the the user who is not targeting their specific areas and clients. This definitely harm business if someone is not respecting G!
It's time to just move on. Find alternative ways to make money. AdSense isn't the only thing to make money with. Don't even try getting your account back.
there are thousands of scam sites which are successfully running ads. but there are some site which have a little but violation of Google TOS but they get banned. i don't know the reason.everyone should be very careful with google ads. they are very sensitive so taking a simple risk can harm your site in a large extinct.
