Banned from Adsense- Reason is invalid clicks which I never Did

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by learn2earn, Jul 22, 2010.

    There it came shocking news to me that I was banned from Adsense because of invalid activity...

    This is the message that I got
    Hello,
    After reviewing our records, we've determined that your AdSense account
    poses a risk of generating invalid activity. Because we have a
    responsibility to protect our AdWords advertisers from inflated costs due
    to invalid activity, we've found it necessary to disable your AdSense
    account. Your outstanding balance and Google's share of the revenue will
    both be fully refunded back to the affected advertisers.


    I am 100% sure that I was not involved in any activity which is considered as invalid clicks, just because I think I had high CTR & Low earning per click on my Online Tips Blog would have resulted in that result.

    I have apply for reinstated of my adsense account. So will this help?

    Any help from your side???

    It's unfortunate but when Google bans you your chances of pulling the account back are impossible, set up a new account.

    You do not click but you can not be sure your readers, competitors or your friends did. Google has clearly stated that in its policies

    If you truly believe you didn't do such fraudulent activities, then
    I advise you to make an appeal. Even though they rarely respond
    and reconsider most of the appeals from average webmasters.
    Better move on with your life and try looking for other alternatives.
    You'll surely find the ones that will suit your website! Good luck! :)

    Thats a very sad fact that sometimes Google bans people out of no reason even when no invalid activity has been done. As said by rob485 you can make an appeal against the decision and if luck favours you will get reinstated.

    I would have thought it unlikely that Google bans people for no reason. They may ban your account mistakenly or the 'invalid activity' may have occurred without your knowledge. The bigest problem of course is communication - there seems to be very little (if any) feedback from Google. In the past when I've had a site drop off the SERPs and asked them why, it suddenly reappears but I get no explanation of why it was dropped.

    How easy is it to open another AdSense account - do they not check IP addresses ?

    Yes that's a smart idea :rolleyes:......let's try to trick Google.

    If you didn't do anything wrong and you appeal there's a high chance they'll reinstate your account.

    I would recommend joining another network such as InfoLinks. I've heard some very good things about InfoLinks. Of course you could open another adsense account, but it would have to be in someone elses name. Plus there's adbrite, bidvertiser, etc. Good luck!

    I don't think Google will reinstate your account based on others who were in similar situation. I suggest that you re-apply for another account this time use a family member's name.

    I have never heard of anybody being reinstated by Google.

    It´s really simple for a competitor to get you banned and almost impossible to stop.
    Just put it behind you and go to another service provider like adbrite.

    If you get stuck in this situation, you'd only have one way that begin your adsense from started point! And there's no way to get back your adsense account. I have been banned one account which bring to me nearly 10$/day hix. :((

    Share with your loss!

    Personally I don't believe the whole 95% of people aren't banned from adsense arguement..

    It seems like google bans almost everyone before payout (free advertising anyone?) and allows a few big fish to prosper to entice others to join.

    It's an amazing strategy and no one can do anything about it.

    1. Allow a few owners to make a large amount of revenue so people see their success stories and believe in the system
    2. Ban eveyone else before payout


    In effect this allows their advertisers to get a large percentage of free advertising.

    Contact them through this appeal form. But, do that if you are sure that you did not do click fraud.

    You can either go appeal for look or other PPC advertising, no more choice
