Is it possible to tell if a site has been blacklisted by Google before buying??

    thinking about buying a site. it seems like it SHOULD have google already on it, but doesnt. if someone had the site before and got kicked off google adsense with it, then obviously id like to know. is there a way of telling??

    thanks

    Do not buy a site that is not listed or indexed in Google. But I am not sure about this not indexed site. It may be completely new or kicked by Google.

    thanks.

    you can get kicked out of google adsense while not being de-indexed though, right??

    im thinking that if google banned someone from not providing good content to users, but didnt de-index
    they would ban my account too if i bought the site and slapped adsense on there

    Is the sites content against Google's TOS? If not, then there shouldn't be any issues with a new owner of the domain/site running Adsense on it.

    yes, it is possible to check. Use adsense sandbox tool: labnol.org/google-adsense-sandbox/

    If you don't see banner ads in all sizes for the specified URL, then the URL is most probably banned in adsense.

    If you have google adsense preview tool and find out whether it has been banned in adsense and to check in google whether it is indexed just use this query site:example.com and then make a conscious decision of buying that site.
