Things not to do with your Adsense account

    Thought I'd start this thread for new Adsensers to prevent them from doing things they might regret. Here's my top list of things not to do with your Adsense account and Adsense sites:

    - Click your own ads
    - Asking other people to click your ads
    - Joining a program that promises you that people will click your ads if you click their ads
    - Telling all your friends about your sites
    - Exchanging Adsense code with other people or programs
    - Buying and/or operating so called "Adsense ready sites"
    - Having sites with only ads and/or search results on them
    - Taking/stealing other peoples content without their permission

    My examples are of course some of the obvious things that can get an Adsenser into a lot of trouble. But perhaps other members could give some of the less obvious examples that could get you banned.
    Please give me your list of things not to do with your Adsense account.

    I have friends and family both that have known about my using adsense on my sites from the start. On the scale of things I worry about, it doesn't even rank.

    I also read somewhere in Google's terms that they can inactivate your account for non-performance as well. So I guess if they don't think your site is producing enough revenue or quality clicks, they can cancel your account.

    Exactly! Because Google is smarter than you. They have all the information they need and they will bust you if you try to cheat on them.

    Just read the TOS and don't do what they tell you not to do.

    great tips to not get banned from adsense, I've never been banned from Google, just follow the TOS rules and you're good or ask around on the forum :)
