I was reading the last thread about being banned from adSense (funny) and I was wondering... what was the effect of being banned from adSense? being banned from Google search? being sandboxed?
Not necessary, I dont think so. I have seen some site banned for violation of TOS and their page rank increased afterwards
I think it depends entire on why you were banned. If you were involved in click-fraud, then I highly doubt that would affect your Google PageRank or indexing by Google.
Banned from Adsense means just loosing your Adsense account and nothing else. No drop in rankings or PR and it also doesnt relate to sandbox. Even if you are banned, apply in Adsense again with some other site (and other name), then put the Ads on the previous (banned from Adsense) site too. I have some friends that did that way and are doing fine.
Well, just because you are banned in adsense doesnt mean your ban also in other google services. well one branch is seperated from the other
