google banned my site, and I know it was my stupid friend who clicked ads. Cuz he said something stupid like dude, I only clicked about every 3rd day.. But when I was at his house I said do not click the ads......... I could hit him with a bat.
Sounds like you will need to dig a rather big hole throw your friend in and plant some roses. All funnin aside ... In reality it is never a good idea to tell a friend or family member about your site especially if they live in the same household or use the same connection. Even then It may be a better idea if they do know to tell them you will buy a rose bush in their memory if they do decide to click ads.
You can try to write google to explain the situation. That may or may not be worth the effort, depending upon how much time/effort you had put into your blog. If it's fairly new, you could consider it as a lesson learned and move on.
please pm me the reason I was banned then. At the very begginning I clicked and got a letter. So I have been very careful covering the no click with people. Worst part is I was trying to help him by showing him how I did it. The ban occurred right after so I just figured it was him. Goofy goofball the way he talked about it.
Yes, I have a gut feeling I would still be making good money if I hadn't wasted time on him. I should have had some software installed to monitor click fraud even if it cost hundreds. Even on suspicion I should have reported him as a possible bad clicks. I admit I clicked in the beginning and google caught it and mailed me a letter. So I am not so mad at him for wanting to click, I know the temptation. But I told him not to, haha. If he hadn't and I still got banned then I would know it wasn't him. But his denials turned to admission. Google is to smart to mess with. I guess he thought he was smarter....even though he clicked on a computer I was showing him my accounts on...I am cursed with a dumb friend the site was scrabblecheat.com and it was doing good up till now.
Never do that again Thats what you should learn from this..! follow TOS and earn.. then you can get your earning in your hands..!
An adsense account lost... is lost forever. However, no harm in trying to contact the support and explain the actual circumstances in which these clicks happened! After all... you were just trying to help a friend understand the basics of adsense! Regards, RightMan
you can write consideration and submit / email google team. So, google will consider your type of banned. Explain your reason.
You can also provide them with the link to this thread, to show that you are real, if they even bother ot check the link. You might get lucky, if there are still real humans with humanity behind google's keyboards. Try it, be polite and ask for mercy
Is this a test from god, will I kill him or not, haha. i put a years work into this site, ranked #1 for 'scrabble cheat' I thought he understood it wasn't to be messed with. I am appealing it since I get 20,000 users a day. But the ctr was only .3 I can't figure out why he thought his 20 clicks or how many he did would help me.... I know, bat time
