    Now they really disabled my account. W/E. I did nothing wrong at all. My guess is like someone said, that my clicks werent converting so bye bye. I'll stick to AdSense.


    PS: I get same clicks in adsense, but for lower ctr since my impressions are high. They didn't know how to count impressions or something.

    I always love companies like that. Who ban you, normally forget to tell you this, and then you keep flying their ads.

    Great business model. :rolleyes:

    Really sorry to hear about that. Do they allow simultaneous advertising with google adsense? I mean if you have google adsense on your webpage, then can you add widgetbucks?? If not, then that can be a reason. I see no other flaw in your website though!

    Yes, they do allow WidgetBucks' advertisements to be used in conjunction with those of Adsense. I believe the aforementioned adult material (stated in my post within the first page), alongside the use of a non-English language within the title and keywords at the footer, may have triggered your account's termination. I suggest you do appeal your banning, given that you were approaching a notable $100 figure. You should address the reality that you have removed any non-English texts, or games that are of adult nature, and would like your account reinstated. I am sure that others, in addition to myself, would be interested in seeing how forgiving they are when compared to Google's stringent bans.

    I personally think, CTR is a counting technique for them to ban publishers. There are severals in this forum got banned for High CTR. Leaving the CTR less then 2% is the best out there looks like :)

    Although, they also dont count the visitors from all country :D

    I do believe that the two websites mentioned in this thread (that of Erind and Gevekay), both of which were banned, could be argued to have breached WidgetBucks' TOS. I have elaborated on my reasonings earlier for the former, and still believe it to hold true. I would, however, question WidgetBucks' integrity were a website that is entirely in English content (with absolutely no 'keyword' stuffing in other languages) were brought to light that was banned.

    I think they must give the publisher access after thoroughly verifying the website, first they are giving us the access...and we are making some enuf bucks and then they are banning....pretty bad!! :(

    For which reason did they ban you? I do think its because of the content.

    I placed the ad code on one of the gallery containing kissing scenes in the movie, and they mailed me those are porn images and suspended :mad:

    even mail them the situation, they are never listening....

    no warnings nothing :mad: direct suspension..

    While signing adsense they check our site and then they will approve, here in widgetbucks no checking nothing!! once we make some amount they are banning with some reason, this is very bad!!!

    I personally think you shouldn't blame them :) Adsense does the same thing, and if WB does this, that means Image Hosting or wallpaper typo sites are not allowed in WB too :D (Nice Info for New and Existing WB Customers)
