Google AdSense Account Disabled (4)

Billy just sent me a link to a great piece on Google's total unaccountability.

In particular, I am concerned at the fact that both advertisers and syndication partners are denied the right to audit the figures produced by Google. All you are provided is an average cost per click figure, together with the total revenue for the day.

This is unacceptable for many online publishers as it means that you are unable to correctly identify the amount of money owed to you, nor are you able to identify areas of growth (particularly in regards to the type of advertisers your users are clicking on).

and it goes on... well worth a read. In particular, the author also outlines how Google's position on VAT means European AdSense customers will struggle to avoid the Exchequer a knocking...

Now you can prevent your account from getting banned.

AdsenseClickLock protects your AdSense pages by automatically hiding your ads from visitors when it detects a possible click fraud attack.

To provide the best protection possible, AdsenseClickLock uses the powerful TripleDefense Click Protection technolgy:

1. ClickBlocker - monitors how many times the same visitor clicks your ads, then hides your AdSense ads after the limit is reached.

2. PageBlocker - hides your AdSense ads after a certain number of pageviews is achieved.

3. IP Tracker - the IP address of each and every visitor to your site ensuring accurate, foolproof tracking of all your potential attackers.

No other solution offers the TripleDefense Protection system to protect your ads from click fraud.

Good luck getting your money back:-)

Dear, guy we are screwing this week

ACTUAL BELOW

While going through our records recently, we found that your AdSense
account has posed a significant risk to our AdWords advertisers. Since
keeping your account in our publisher network may financially damage
our advertisers in the future, we've decided to disable your account.

Please understand that we consider this a necessary step to protect the
interests of both our advertisers and our other AdSense publishers. We
realize the inconvenience this may cause you, and we thank you in
advance for your understanding and cooperation.

If you have any questions about your account or the actions we've
taken, please do not reply to this email. You can find more information

Google Adsense - flagship of contextual advertising! Really the best webmaster program for earning money..

Got my account disabled yesterday claiming that my account posed a threat to adwords advertisers.Nothing to do with invalid clicks and no further explanation.My account had reached almost $400 and no mention if this will be paid.

I had an adsense account running for 5 months. My account was nearing $600 and I had not received any payment due to I think intended delay in pin posting by the googles.

One week ago I received an email that my site had generated invalid clicks, something I deny.

I think it is Googles tactic to con publishers and advertisers since I doubt they ever return the funds to advertisers.

Please avoid Google Adsense!

Hi All!

I agree with your comments.

Google adsense is a genuine fraud. It's disabled my account reaches $250. I never cheat them. But Google cheat always all people who run adsense.

eudra:

Hi guys,

Same thing here. After I reached $100 (in 6 months), I too got the same email from google, and my account was disabled. We should do something about this. I am considering buying new domain and let people know what to expect from AdSense and google.

john:

It happen to me to today. Those dam adsense are in fact cheating people and i m going to make them pay. My account just reached $100 and i was about to claim my $ for work day and night for 3 months and suddenly the ban my account for invalid fraud clicks. Where in hell did those clicks come from. I should have taken everyones advise and not spend my time on adsense. I m going to start my own blog and forum for "FCUK ADSENSE" and i dont even mind paying for the server, it just that i hate to get cheated!!!!!

I agree with you people. I had some good money in my adsense account and today they send a mail explaining that my account is closed due to "fraudulent" practises which I never knew about.

Absolutely true. They must be [I've removed the libelous bit - Dug]

ghostkiller:

I tell you that Google Adsense themselves are fraud. First they enroll us in their program. We invest our time and resources into it. After an year when you are bound to get a payment, they will disable your account without giving any reason whether you are guilty or not. They have no liability whatsoever and it is their right to cheat people. They never tell you what was the cause of diabling accoun or provide any data. It means that it is their choice when to stop payment to the publisher. Google Adsense is only cheating its publishers and its advertisers. Morever, their check never reaches on time. Sometimes your payment never reaches in 4 months. They have set their own monopolistic rules. And there is no rule to safeguard publishers interest.

Its all loss-loss situation for both publishers and advertisers in google adsense. If someone may be earning, there is no reliablity he will be earning next month. Any one can clicks repeatedly on google adsense ads on your website and get your account closed. Adsense is all rubbish and just waste of time/energy/resources/money.

Google is misusing its goodwill and power to cheat innocent people. Its playing with the careers of the people. Stay away from Google adsense
