symptoms when your site is banned

[thecross5]

hi, may I know what are the symptoms when your site is banned?

[ogletree]

Banned from Google SERPS or banned from Adsense. If it is adsense it is quite you no longer make money. I actualy don't know exactly what happends since I have never had that happen but I'm sure you can't be banned and not know it. If you want to know about the SERPS that is a whole other issue. There are several types on bans. I have been hand banned before and that is easy to tell. No search can bring up your site not evev by site: or even a unique phrase on your site like 3ak5jl6kiuek8al9kdjf. I have done that to test some sites. I also made a google alert for that term just in case my site came back. I get a ton of alerts now from scrapers that have found my site.

I mean banned from adsense. all of a sudden all my sites are slowed down and stop showing adsense ads. this is strange.

If your site is no longer serving ads it's a bit of a clue....

hi Sobriquet! phew! you are right, it's really end-of-the-month syndrome. My ads are back online again. Yipee!

I was under the impressions that if you got banned/kicked from adsense then the easy way to find out is when you cant log into your adsence account?

Your ad spots will start showing 403 access denied pages

sorry if i make this my first post but i didnt find an answerto my question browsing in the forums and i can't take this angst any longer.

Since Saturday i can't login to my adsense account, in my page onlye PSA are showing and not in all the adsense spots i have, i didnt get any mail from google and i sent them one yesterday asking what happened and havent get a reply, what do you guys think? i've read that at the end of the months things like this could happen, and sometimes if the author is breaking the rules they get some warnings, is this some kind of a warning or my account got cancelled? i think if it was cancelled i surely have gotten an email, thats my only hope, but i dont know, you guys know something about this?

Noodlez,

We can't help you based on the info you give us.
But... don't post your URL!

First thing we want to know is;
Are you completely complying with the Adsense TOS?
Or did you do things that are not allowed?

If you cannot login and your ad units show PSAs or a forbidden error, chances are pretty good that you have been banned. If you can login to your AdSense account, it is all good.

Termination emails are sent at the same time, so be sure to check your spam filters to ensure that any emails they sent are getting through to you.

as far as i know im not breaking any Adsense rule, i mean my page have content, i dont encourage people to click on the ads, i don't click my own ads, i dont show the ads in pop-ups and so on, the one thing i think i do but i dont know if i do it enough to piss the people at google is that i refresh the pages quite often but is because i make changes to the templates on my page or something else, i don't do that everyday but one in a while i have.

and JenStar that's one of the most 'weird' things, i registered the adsense account with a gmail account so the termination email couldn't go anywhere but to my inbox and it's not in the spam neither, is this a good sing? did they mess something in their end?

thanks both for your replies

Thecross5,

why did you make another post about this? you said in your other post:
----------------------
Hi all,
1. can anyone enlighten me why my ads are not showing on my PC? The adsense campaign is still going on as I am still receiving clicks.

2. And secondly, is it a good idea to have 2 adsense accounts? If one is banned still got another...
----------------------------

You have 2 accounts, no wonder you are nervous. You should learn to read the contracts you sign.

It is very hard to get banned from Adsense uless you are clicking your own ads. Most people that say they don't click their ads (and got banned) means they personaly did not click them or they clicked them and there is no way for google to know they clicked them because they did it at a hotel cyber cafe or a friends house. You can even have 2 accounts. I log into 3 of them from the same computer all the time. I never view my webisites. I think I see my pages maybe 3 times a month. Stay off your sites don't tell anybody about them not even you family.

I have had an adsense account for a few years. I have had many a site banned from the google serps. Most of my sites are pure auto-generate junk. Only once did I get an email from Google telling me that I had too much KW density. I cut it down a bit (not totaly) and they said I was OK. I have never heard from them again except to send me my checks every month. I make low 4 figures a month from Adsense. Adsense is not my main online income any longer.
