If Banned From Adsense

If spouse signs up with same site will the other person be banned?

[Verdict]

and you get someone like a spouse to sign up to adsense so you can use their account, will the person banned be able to put the adsense back on the sites it use to be on before getting banned, will google even know?

[jimbeetle]

How would Google not know? Be assured, you can't put AdSense on that site again.

[netmeg]

They have all kinds of easy ways to track back - address, ip number, domain name - unless you get fully reinstated, those sites will be dead to AdSense from now on.

[purplecape]

And I remembering reading that their policy is that both the sit(s)e and the person holding the account are banned.

[Verdict]

the sites are blog sites, not official sites, but it must be easier for them since google owns blogger. hmm, need to figure out something, thanks

[Jean]

need to figure out something

Figure out how to make money from your sites without AdSense.

[Verdict]

Wouldn't know where to begin, plus my blog sites are real basic, I just post up videos from various video sharing sites of famous boxing and stand-up comedy.

I just post up videos from various video sharing sites of famous boxing and stand-up comedy.

Notoriously low earning sites! And I really do mean a pittance.

[netmeg]

Plus they're not even yours.

If you can't provide unique content of some sort, why would you expect to be able to make money?

[Verdict]

I haven't even promoted these sites yet and i've seen the links being passed around by people requesting where they can find these videos.

Also, when I get my new hard drive, every video that's going to be posted on my sites will be video's i've uploaded myself. I guess if I get enough views per day, I can get other's to promote their sites on mine.

How many unique views per day is a good number to where other sites would wanna promote on my site?

You're going to get burnt out real fast trying to compete with video sites that have visitor uploaded content. Unless you're archiving these videos and settling into a niche, it's going to be really hard to compete.

[Verdict]

it is based on a single topic, not just random videos

Even Google Still Unsure How To Make Money With YouTube, don't expect too much from video stuff.

[netmeg]

The bottom line is, if you want to make money with AdSense, then you have to provide unique content that will attract visitors who will be in the mood to buy something and click on your ads, and if you don't want to be smart priced out of existence, it would help if those visitors actually purchased whatever they clicked on. And if you've been banned, then you are going to have to get a new identity, new IP number, and a new domain.

[purplecape]

To expand on what netmeg said, videos of boxing and comedy are unlikely to attract people shopping for something, and so the ads aren't likely to be of interest to them. You'll get the occasional click out of curiosity, but your site will be smartpriced because video sites don't work well for advertisers, and so those clicks won't be worth much.

Frankly, if I were you I'd be looking into affiliate programs as a better way to make money from your site. Boxing videos, books about comedians...

[Verdict]

good stuff here, I understand what you guys are getting at, but i'm just not interested in many things that will have me devout time towards. I'll eventually get bored, these things i'm doing is at least something I enjoy and update daily if need be.

So i'ma look into affiliate programming, not familiar with it
