Why does google ban you?

Google banned you? is this your 3rd account or more than that? here i ve given reasons on what basis google bans you.

For new users.., (got banned for first time)

1. Invalid clicks

If you click all the ads and open and close it, before the ad page opens, it is invalid clicks.

Eg, if you click all the four links in skyscrapper ad and close it before the ad page opens,

In this case you are paid nothing. But you are registered in google fault vaults, by which they may ban you at any time..

2. Fraud clicks

If clicks done are more than 3 from single system, or you click your own ads, it come under fraud clicks and so you will be banned

3. Click through rate

Generally google expects 1 click from you site for 100 impressions. So it has a reporting field called CTR. If it is maintained between 1-10, you encounter no problem. Else all earnings are returned to providers itself and thus ban you.

It is good practice to maintain CTR between 4.5 to 7.5

What is more Important in CTR
Many may think that finally when reviews your CTR should be below 10. So after considerable amount of clicks, they will try to reduce it. This is stupid thing. Google does reviews on all days. So your CTR for all days should be maintained in same range.

4. Referrals

No one knows about it. This is also the main criteria for banning of your account. If you ve placed any Referral ads in your site, and if any one has clicked it and filled wrong information, google assumes that this is done by your cause and bans you.

Note: Even unknown users fills wrong information, only you will be caught. So it s better to place minimum amount of referral ads in your site


ACCOUNT BANNED EVEN AFTER YOU VE FOLLOWED ALLTHESE
Your account got banned even after following all these.. Then definitely it must not be your first account. Here i ve given you the reasons why you ve been banned.

Reasons
1. Your created account contains already existing adsense users address(ie two account)
2. Your account contains address which is already banned.
3. Clicks are done from only specific ips.
