    I might be missing something here but I think that if Google doesn’t take these reports seriously, honest publishers will have the uncomfortable “it’s not fair” feeling. Two weeks is a long waiting period for somebody that saw something wrong, reported it to Google and sees that nothing has happened.

    I can only imagine how many people report sites everyday. Google would go out of business paying people to look at these sites to keep up on a daily basis. Well maybe not out of business...:D

    Are you referring to the owner of the sites that are violating the TOS, which in turn gives the program and other reputable publishers a bad image? Or, are you flogging those who have voiced discontent or even report the site to Google?

    Yes, in an ideal world, Google would have a specific staff hired to either temporarily or permanently ban those sites from their program. That's one of the reasons I hesitate being with AdWords sometimes, because of goofs encouraging "who-cares" clicks.

    Good point. That would actually be a very cool example of poetic justice :)

    Or just serve the ads until the webmaster removes the code.

    Does google actually email the person reporting to say the site has been banned?

    I don't think so!

    They just reply to the reporting email saying they are going to analyse the websites in question or something like that

    Could it be the owner of the site you caught out?

    Considering one spammer could add 1000 sites in a day it would probably take several employees to look at the 1000 sites.

    Now consider how many spammers there are, and you will find the task is huge, and why google does not as a rule, hand ban or hand remove individual websites but removes them via algorithimic adjustments.

    Hope this helps ease the angst...Google employees are no less under the full plate syndrome than anyone else.

    You would think that google with all it's resources would be able to program it's crawler to spot these obvious violations. Obviously if the "click ads" text is buried in a graphic, it would be a little harder, but still potentially possible with OCR technology.
