Hi , I see so many people posting that their adsense account disabled or banned. So just curious to know if there any one earning from Adsense without getting banned ?. Kishore
Also curious as to whether in that time you have ever been "ad bombed" (I think they call it) with some one/group obviously clicking maliciously? I got banned last month because "[FONT="]After reviewing our records, we've determined that your AdSense account poses a risk of generating invalid activity. Because we have a responsibility to protect our AdWords advertisers from inflated costs due to invalid activity, we've found it necessary to disable your AdSense account. Your outstanding balance and Google's share of the revenue will both be fully refunded back to the affected advertisers.[/FONT]" Seems you don't need to actually have "invalid activity" it's sufficient that you just pose a risk of generating it. So lasting 6-7 years with no problems is amazing. Hats off to you all.
Not for so long. But I used to make Larry and Brin fools and grab their lunch sheets leaving them only with their cookies when they were in their square *****. Finally they manipulated them and used to show interest baked ads.
Had my adsense account since 2002, then i got partnered on youtube a few months ago, so i started put ads on all my videos, big mistake, seems google thought i was making to much, and adsense thought i poses a risk, and pocketed my £74 for six months (last week) to put towards them buying Munch's Scream.
since december 2003, but at first I didn't take adsense seriously, and I was doing website about my local area, how stupid is that.. Then I slowly started to see that traffic was coming to general topics pages, so I slowly moved away from regional crap sites for more national crap sites and even international crap sites.. The earnings could have been very good since the start if I wasn't stuck with those stupid regional/local sites at first..
I've had an Adsense account earning $ for over 4 years now and never had a problem. But I'm extremely careful NEVER to click any of my own ads or asking anyone else to do this for me. I do know others who have clicked their own ads once or twice 'just to try it out' - and eventually Google banned them
Google adsense is the good program to make money from your blog till you become pro blogger to create your own product or start affiliate marketing.
About 2 years and i am still quite a rookie since i am not spending enough time on it and i am in the same (wrong) niche for over 2 years.
I have had my adsense account since 2002 with no problems, but I don't play any games and only have real websites with quality links and traffic.
As an addendum: I have had monthly payments from adsense direct to my bank since 2002 as well with incomes in excess of 3k
