    no, it's normal
    but just make sure adsense isn't your.. like... life income
    because it really isn't stable

    Of course it's not right to live in fear of the "dreaded" ban email from "G". this is the main reason why you should not rely on monetizing with only there ads on whatever sites that you may have.

    Go forth and diversify. Cut the strings of being a "G" puppet!!

    If you're complying with their TOS then you have nothing to worry about. I'm sure if you mistakenly had an Adsense ad too close to another company's ad or something like that, and it was an honest mistake, G probably wouldn't ban you for such a minor infraction. But if you're altering code and running 10 ads on the same page then you deserve to get banned because it's against TOS.

    Yeah, I think you kinda have to. But, don't let it run your life or your website. I have always been told to think of adsense earnings as a "supplementary" income, not a "primary" income. Relying on adsense for an income could cause some potential problems, especially when they can ban accounts for virtually anything these days.

    I think this how it should be. That "fear" of being banned is keeping us up and always ready to take care of our websites :). Thats my opinion . Cheers

    Yea its true you can get banned today, but it shouldn't cripple your site, you should always be using several different sources for income for your sites, never put all your eggs in one basket.
