Just got Banned from AdSense

    Well even though they had horrible payouts, :mad: they did make my blog look nice, now I got banned from AdSense last month, but forgot to appeal it.

    I just sent an appeal and hopefully get accepted! :)

    The part which I'm mad at is the fact that they banned me AFTER I reported an unusual amount of traffic (invalid clicks), not even say anything about invalid clicks, violating TOS or anything.. Well I sent them a reinstatement request with as much details as possible and at the moment am using Chitika (not so great)...

    I've been reading some of Jen's posts which are a bit helpful, but this one seems to be the best:

    Actually it said invalid clicks, but I think a botnet did it on my arcade (50,000 impressions in a day)

    and I reported it to them saying that it wasn't me and got banned a few days later..Just updated the post, sorry about that...

    The proxy site was created after I got banned, pretty sure because that's when I found Precision Click (which is horrible!)

    But what is wrong with Proxy sites, google doesn't like them?

    It is pretty bad, I placed it on Sixty6 Arcade and got $0.10 in a week! They said to get good money, they must analyze your site for a month!

    Well I wasn't going to stick around all that time!
    Exactly the same question I asked!..

    no, I said that above, I put up the proxy site AFTER I got banned...(with no Google AdSense, because I was banned!)

    Join the club. I was banned from Google for "Unusual Activity" - they refused to elaborate and denied my three appeals - citing "trade secrets and confidential information"

    I was making a couple hundred a month from that... now I make nothing. YPN hasn't done a thing for me.
