If, when you reread the TOS, you see that there WAS something you did that might have violated the TOS (such as calling attention to the ads), fix it right away and then tell Google you fixed it. Apologize and ask to be reinstated.
If you'd like advice from other AdSensers as to whether or not there might be a problem with your web site or traffic, tell us about your site, what's on it, where you get traffic. Put the URL in your profile and invite us to visit it.
If Google keeps saying no, keep writing back. But be polite. People who really have done nothing wrong have been reinstated, but you need to be persistent and open with Google.
Good luck.
I see some posts of people reaching their first $100 dollar days. My question is, was it slow in beggining for all of you. I have adsense running for a month now. My first day i made 44 cents. then two weeks of $0. Now I brining between 4 -10 dollars each day for ads. I have added search into my pages and have already made $7 off of that for today. So my averages per day are really begining to pick up. If I continue to push hard will I be @ the 3 figure days?
it really is exciting. I have had adsense running for a month now and i have passed $70 in my first month. I have reacently added adsense for search and it doubled my revenue. I am adding content every week. around 7 - 10 pages per week. I would like to add 70 - 100 pages per week for the next year. I want to really see my earnings in june 06.
Please answer this question...
How did you jump from making 0 for two weeks to $70 in you first month.
Maybe if you answer this question we can tell you why your account was disabled.
The chances are that if you look hard enough you'll find some possible reasons for the problem. If you do ...mention those to Google, apologise, reiterate your commitment to keeping within the TOS, and request they review their decision.

That is an unkind response and not in the spirit of Webmasterworld.
He asked a question and I'm trying to answer it for him, whats unkind about that?
I think the key to why he was kicked out is in the answer.
We do need to know more if we are going to help.
it could also be normal growth/learning curve.
and it could also be that he purchased suspicious traffic.
petra, let's put it differently: What do you think can cause the standard "invalid clicks" email?
IMO most invalid clicks e-mails refer to clicks generated in a fraudulant manner.

conjecture
thats the nature of the adsense program, your guess is as good as mine mate :)

*Yawn*
Read one of the 1,000 threads about it
That is an unkind response and not in the spirit of Webmasterworld.
That's why I'm not guessing as to what percentage is invalid clicks and what's we-don't-like-your-site-because-your-visitors-are-chinese. He could have got the email for all kinds of reasons and it is presumptous to suppose you have a good idea as to the real cause.
Fair enough but what do you think we should do when asked a question like that? Simply refer the poster back to Google? They will probably send him another canned response. We need to get to the root of his problem and the only way to do that is to ask direct questions.

Is it really against TOS to change search default to current site rather than www? If so I shall remove the search entirely..
If that was cause for invalid clicks then it would make more sense to warn the person rather than totally kick them out.

My experience on content sites is that search doesn't bring in as much money as the content ads. For me the ratio is about 1:100, but this may differ from site to site: the size of the site, quality of internal navigation, menus etc. A ratio of 1:1 as in this case is IMHO very exceptional and might have triggered some red flag at the Googleplex.
jmaresca2005, can you give some more info about the role of the search option on your site? Do you have a content site with a search, just in case people are looking for something, or does search have a prominent place in your site structure?
Also, did you use the on-site searchbox yourself and may you have accidentely clicked on the ads in the SERPs? Although these SERPs look like Google SERPs, they are still part of your AdSense account and you should not click on them.
