10 Biggest and Dangerous Mistakes that Violate Google Adsense TOS

New (or experienced ) Google Adsense publishers often commit biggest & dangerous mistakes that could ban their Adsense account forever. Google Adsense is a popular & leading web advertising program which provide good income for many websites & it is very strict about their TOS (Terms of Service).

Every day Google banned many IP address or publishers ids who violate Google Adsense TOS. I daily notice several web masters violate Adsense TOS intentionally or unintentionally. So, here a few helpful Google Adsense tips, probably many you heard already and few you might gain by knowing now.

1. No Click on Your Own Adsense Ads

You definitely know this one very well. This is fast & rapid way to close your Adsense accout. Never tell anyone to click on them like friends, office colleague or your family members. Keep a check if your family member or your children are busy increasing your income by clicking your ads and indirectly trying to stop your income.

Two month ago one hubber ask a question in Hub pages Q/A section :- " Could Clicking On Ads be a Type of Donation" Beware clicking on their Adsense ads not type of donation or you can't help anyone else through clicking on their Adsense ads. If you want help someone simply give them money through Paypal or through other medium, writing about them or spread their link.

2. Don't Disclose Your Confidential Information

Don't share your confidential information like CPM, CTR, Adsense publisher code & income derived via individual ad units or any other confidential information they may reveal to you. If you share this information to others then Adsense banned you. According to new Google Adsense TOS you can reveal your total money which make in Adsense.

3. One Adsense Account Per User

You don't need to create 10 adsense account for 10 different sites. You required only one adsense account for all different sites. But, if you fear one account is closed due to violation of Google Adsense TOS believe me they will close all accounts when they find out. You can easily keep track of clicks by using channels (url channels or keywords channels) with real time statistics. They will automatically detect the new site and display relevant ads.

Adsense provided enough customization for ad placement, color, background, border & links color. But customization Adsense ad after placement for more clicks is completely prohibited & ad also stop working.

5. 3-3-2 Units

Don't place more than 3 ad units and 3 ad links or 2 Adsense search boxes on any web page. But if you use all these in single page without much contents then may be not see all ads or your web page looks clutter.

If you place Adsense ads more than this limits your ads not see on site.

Text ad of any Google Adsense compititor is completely prohibited, if you use (want) such type text ads on your site then definitetly Google stops their ads on your site or may be banned your account.

Update: Now you can run contextual ads of Yahoo Ads & Chitika on same site with Google Adsense.

7. Place Ads Only on Content Pages

If you place your ads on thanking page, pop up, rgistration, welcome page or any other page which have no content or less content this result violation of Google Adsense TOS.

8. Don't Send Your Ads by Email

Html formatted emails look good and also allow placement of these javascript ads. But this is not allowed as per Google Adsense TOS. You don't want impressions registering on their logs from any email service even once. They are watching o,o.

10. Label Headine as “sponsored links” or “advertisements” Only

Other than this label for Adsense ads not according to Google Adsense TOS. Many webmaster changes Adsense ads headline other than Google Adsense guidlines after that they banned & compain about Google Adsense policy.

 These are some rules broken by webmasters continuosly iintentionally or unintentionally & final result of this is banned by Google. But if you fill they mistakly banned you then mail them (but mostly they not reply of this type of mails because Google Adsense team receive tons of mails everyday). So, prevention is better than cure
