yes, clickbomb should be on one site. But I could not track it. None of my adsense channels were showing the clicks.. And have no adsense tracker.. BTW - what is the best adsense alternative ?
This is why i feel ashamed about being an Adsense publisher. Even if you have a regular and perfecly normal website(s) you can be banned because someone clickbombs you. Unbelievable.
Same happened to me. I've been a publisher for over 3 years and yesterday was the first time I've heard from them. Luckily for me they just asked me to fix the issue or else. I've fixed it on the spot and responded with an email apologizing for this mistake. Looks like AdSense people are striking hard on publishers after they were sued by some advertisers for invalid clicks from pages without content. Now they're checking each site religiously tracking down any possible violation of their TOS. It's gonna get really hard to be and to remain AdSense publisher. Unless of course you’re an important publisher – aka own a large, popular website.
I think that wasted lot of my time... I implement it on all my sites, read various ebooks (infact i recently bought joel comm 4th edition of adsense secrets), wrote content and finally it ends.. I think everybody has to face a ban once atleast - though its not your mistake, you get banned for others mistake. Big G just don't listen.
oooooooo my GOD. Its a sad news. 130-140$ is not a problem basic prob should how to get back adsense ac. coz adsense is adsense no one can be as GOOGLE. if GOOGLE don't know then whos know.
Just checked some sites i reported more than a year ago and guess what? All of them adsense active. As for me, hope they review my site as well. If they find something that its againt TOS i hope they send me an email about it! But hell, in 2 years as a publisher i've asked for them to review it a few times (because of click bomb) and every time i did it, their response was: it's ok, if we find anything we'll get back to you... bla bla bla
I don't even bother to report those sites..Actually it depends upon luck I think..SO always get ready any day you can get the banned letter from adsense without any reason
Sorry to hear that they will not check it out. By the link they gave you, it is clear that it was invalid clicks. I have found Adsense to be of little use in the scheme of things. I do much better with private advertising than with any of the ad companies. People are too aware of the ads and you do not earn as well as you use to. I hope you can find better ways to monetize.
Damn that sux, and scares me at the same time.. all my site are 100% legit.. and if this happend to be I would be devistated.
Look at the bright side. You were only making $1 per day with AdSense. Now that you can no longer use it, you are forced to explore other options which could lead to higher payouts. Being banned form AdSense is not the end of the world. Sure, nobody wants to be banned form anything and AdSense is very easy and convenient, but if you continued using it, you would still be making $1 a day and wouldn't have right motivation to explore what else you can do to make more. There are affiliate programs, other ad networks, or you can try to sell your website real estate on forums such as this one or SP. Soon enough you may end up making more money than you would have by continuing to have AdSense on your site(s)
It is better you fill an appeal, than not to do anything. Try as much as possible to make your point to them. Good luck
That's what is sounds like to me, content on your website. Do you have any "adult" material? Run any forums?
Sorry to hear that. If I were you, rather than trying to guess, I would just just contact them using emails. Only they can provide the direct answers.
Don't you just love google. I had $1,100 in my account, never did any thing wrong, followed all the rules, ect... I appealed my account every day for 6 months and finally got a response saying that I did not have a adsense account. I applied for a new account a week later was accepted and 2 days later banned again. This time I did't have a chace to put thier code on my website. Their should be a class action law suit against google
That's what I am trying to do now, but it sucks when a valuable resource is striped from you. Thanks for the encouragement
MeeHee .... 140 clicks and only $1 ... that sounds like click bombing to me hence a good reason why Google may have banned you. I guess that's a good reason for everyone that values their Google Adsense account to invest in a invalid click prevention program like asrep.
