Tips for Avoiding Your AdSense Account Getting Banned by Google

I have seen quite a lot of AdSense publishers posted in different forums stating that their AdSense accounts were banned by Google due to fraudulent clicks. Most of these people claim that they are innocent and have never clicked on their on AdSense ads. So they have no idea why click fraud can occur on their AdSense accounts. The truth is click fraud can happen in several ways and not necessarily caused by the AdSense publisher himself/herself who accidentally clicked on his/her own AdSense.

Below are some of the tips to protect your AdSense account:

1) Do not use autosurf programs to promote your websites that contain AdSense. Autosurf programs can substantially increase your website traffic or hits, AdSense page view and ecpm but people who surf your site only to earn advertising credit or other type of incentives. So the traffic generated from autosurf programs aren't counted as real and thus against AdSense policies.

2) If possible, do not involve in any traffic exchange networks and programs. If you have join one or more programs or networks that can make you a steady AdSense commission, you should start worry about your AdSense account as this could mean that members of the program(s) were clicking each other AdSense ads all the while whether intentionally or unintentionally. As soon as Google detected a group of people were clicking each other AdSense, many of the members AdSense account in the program will be suspended. Also traffic exchange can be another mean to artificially generate tons of unreal website traffic or hits and boost up AdSense page view & ecpm and it is strictly prohibited by Google .

3) Do not join AdSense exchange networks. They are similar to traffic exchange programs except members are participate just for clicking each other AdSense. This should be a guaranteed way to be banned by Google.

4) Read all the Google AdSense policies at http://www.google.com/adsense to see whether you have against any policies and make the necessary modification.

Good News from Google AdSense Program

I just received an email from Joel Comm (an AdSense expert) informing me that Google now allows AdSense publisher to display other contextual ads on the same page with AdSense ads. But the ads that appear on the same page should not be very similar to AdSense Ads. YPN and Bidvertiser ads are very similar, so they are not allowed to run on the same page as AdSense ads. Here's the reply from Google to Joel Comm's question.

Question 1) Does Google allow other ads to run on the same page as
AdSense Ads?

Answer 1) The official word is a qualified "yes".

You may not run ads that are designed to resemble AdSense ads.  For example, Yahoo! Publisher Network
ads look very similar to AdSense ads.  While you can run YPN on your site, they may not appear on
the same PAGES as AdSense ads.

However, contextual ads like those provided by Kontera, Intellitxt, Amazon and Chitika ARE allowed
on the same pages as your AdSense ads!

This is definitely a good news to those people who make money online through a

Google's AdWord Latest Changes

I have been told by several Internet marketers that Google Adword has been making some drastic changes lately. Some keywords' required minimum bids increased from $.50 to $5.00 per click which directly affected a number of advertisers who spend more than $10k on Adword monthly. These advertisers will no longer choose to or able to use Adword for their businesses due to the significant increase of the minimum bids on their keywords.

It seems that Google is telling these people "We no longer want your money go advertise somewhere else."As mentioned by John Reese

"It appears as if their latest changes are mostly affecting SQUEEZE PAGES. In other words, landing pages that go for the opt-in before showing a sales letter or the bulk of the site's content".

Currently Google has not revealed the real reasons behind these changes. I'll post more updates here once I receive more news about this matter.
