    My friend was right- Google doesnt like high CTRs. Now look what they have done. They have banned my ip address from accessing Google ads. The idiots think I am clicking on my ads .

    I accessed many sites from my dial up connection and I see ads on each of them.

    I have tried to attach a screen capture of this forum. I hope it works :)

    If you're not clicking your own ads - what's the problem?

    I have no problem. But Google finds it hard to digest someone can have CTR of 40% :).

    How did you "know it was coming"? That sounds like you were clicking on your own ads and expected to get caught?????

    Read my first thread on this forum. I talked about a friend about my high CTR. He said google would 100% ban me. My only reason for coming to this forum was to know if others had any similar experience.

    Maybe your browser is messed up or something.

    Google AdSense wouldn't ban your IP because your site has a high CTR - they would ban it for the user(s) of that IP excessively clicking ads. Is your IP address shared with anyone?

    I don't believe that, Google knows what an acceptable CTR is for different layouts. They have access to everybody's stats and their are various sites out there with a better CTR than 40%.

    Does seem odd that you don't see the ads here :confused:

    I am confused... Unless you do heavy competitive filtering, you don't need to see your own ads so what difference does it make?

    The only reason you would need to see your own ads is to click on them. Is that your concern? Google is hiding your ads from you so you can't click on them?

    And you sure do seem to have a guility concious.

    No knowledge about that. All I have read are the two books in dummies's series about Google and SEO by Peter Kent and Brad Hill. Now I know what title tag, keyword meta tag and description meta tag is. :p

    You are blocking your ads with something:
    • antivirus program possibly
    • firewall
    • anti-spam program
    • anti-spyware program
    • dial-up accelerator program
    • toolbar
    • javascript disabled in one or more browsers
    • you're using FireFox (I see Google ads fine in IE and have both browsers set to enable javascript but with the latest version of Firefox I don't see Google ads either)

    I really doubt that this is a Google issue. The OP says he can't view Google ads on this site, not just his own. I'm virtually certain this will turn out to be something on his end of the connection.

    Will do that if it persists. I noticed it an hour back. I tried refreshing pages many times but didnt work. So I tried a dial up connection. Ads working fine there. Actually I am less worried than before coz now i think Google isnt going to kick me out without investigating.
