Have you ever received this warning email from AS?

[jbayabas]

The letter says that I am displaying Google ads that don't comply with your policies.

The letter then warns you to make the changes in the next 3 business days or else you will no longer be able to display AS ads on the site.

I received such emails twice in the last 3 years since i've been with AS. I always make sure to make the changes within 3 business days so I advice you guys to always check your email regularly because if you don't make the changes on time, AS ads will stop running on your site.

Back to my main question, has anyone received such email many times like more than 2 times and their account is still in good standing?

Hmm.. solve the problem and send a reply ;)

Out of interest, do such messages only arrive as emails or do they also appear in your AS reports pages.

I guess I can understand the 3 day limit - if you are running a serious business, you should be able to respond in this time and after all, the problem would be affecting their business and that of advertisers.

>>because if you don't make the changes on time, AS ads will stop running on your site.

how do you know that is true?

[jbayabas]

denisl: the message only arrives as email.

topr8: because Adsense says so in the email that if you don't make the necessary changes in the next 3 business days, AS ads will stop running on your site.

So I guess not many of you have received this email warning before?

Hmmm. That sounds as if you are displaying ads of your choice, but since Google decides which ads to display, that's a bit confusing. Can you elaborate?

The moderator edited my original post. It's suppose to say that I am displaying Google ads that don't comply with AS policies.

Have you done this before then ? Are you close to the wind with googles TOS ?

Eh ?
Google chooses what adverts go on your site by using an algo. So how is it your fault that google is displaying adverts that you have no control over?

Maybe I will get one too because my site shows homosexual adverts on a non homosexual site. :/

What the OP is trying to say is that they are displaying ads on a web page that does not conform with AdSense policies. That could mean everything from showing links that resemble AdSense ads to displaying AdSense ads on pages whose topic is not approved.

Thanks for clearing that up. Always confusing when someone writes and English is not the main language.

AS always gives me 3 business days to make the changes. I have a good site which features my photography. But sometime there were photographs that Google finds "adult" which I disagree. All my photographs are artistic but for some reason I am not allowed to show the models' bum because they consider it "adult content". I just remove it right away within 3 business days. The only problem is if you're on vacation and forget to check your email. If you don't make the changes within 3 business days, you're screwed.

Then AdSense is probably not the best choice for your business model.

[jbayabas]

Adsense is the best compared to Adbrite or other advertising companies that's why I don't want to lose Adsense.
