How to Reapply for Adsense when Google banned your Adsense Account?

It is important to understand how to reapply for Google Ansense when you need to do so for whatever the reason.

Some of the reasons why a publisher has to reapply for Google Adsense are:
To transfer the ownership of a website (like when you buy a website that already has Adsense in it, from someone else ).
When the account was suspended for click fraud, voilation of Google's terms of service, or for other illegal means.
When you were rejected at the initial application itself.
When the site has functionality problems.

Now let us see how to act to reapply in each of the cases:

Change of Ownership
You can reapply by sending an email to Adsense support team and amply demostrate the change of owner ship in your email. As long as the website was previously not banned and meets all the requirements to qualify for Adsense, your application will be accepted. It is important to make sure before buying, if the site is banned from Adsense for any reason. You can enquire this from Adsense team by sending them an email.

Account was Banned or Disabled
A publisher can get banned for click fraud or voilation of any Adsense program policies. Normally the publisher gets a notification email from Google explaining why the account was banned. When you receive such an email, you have to know how to react and defend (if you are not at fault, ofcourse). In some cases it will not be very hard to reactivate your account. But in some cases such as click fraud it is really hard to get the account back on the road. Here are some of the causes for disabling a, Adsense account:

Click Fraud:
Adsense registers what they consider as invalid, malicious or fradulant clicks on the Adsense Ads generated mainly for the purpose of personal gain in adsense revenue. More more information, see our article on Click Fraud.

What to do?
Email Google Adsense team with an apology and admitting the blame. However, if you consider you have not done anything wrong, they will see this situation triggered by one of your actions, even if not directly.
Be persistent. Send an email regularly, say once a week to show them that you are comitted and loyal to the program.
Keep a polite tone. Don't be confrontational. Being rude will never work.
Offer to make compensation on the malicious clicks to ensure them that you are truly sorry.


Incentives or Advising the Users for Clicks :
This occurs usually for publishers who are not well aware of Google Adsense program policies. Google prohibits using any other phrase except "Sponsered Links" or "Advertisements" around google Ads. Using phrease such as "Please click on the links" etc. or telling the visitors that it is madatory to click on Ads to use some other service on your site or to offer incentives for clicks etc., are some of the reasons that can potentially have your account banned.

What to do?
Just remove all content from your site that can be intrepreted as ' promoting clicks on your site' and resubmit your application. And never, never repeat such acts if you are lucky enough to have your account reactivated.

Rejection of the Initial Application
Usually Google rejects a site for Adsense, because the site does not meet all the Google Adsense program policies.

What to do?
Read the Google Terms of Service carefully and make sure you site meets all the requirements. In some case even if the site is perfect, they may reject because of their mistake. In such case resumit the application and have them take a second look at your site. They usually give the approval immediatly in such cases.


Banned because of functionality problems
When there is any problem on any page that causes it to automatically refresh.
When you have an automatic procedure serving Google ads to all pages including 404 error pages and search pages.
When there are some broken links or any other site disfunctionalities that come against Google stipulations.

What to do?
Solving the problems and resubmitting will usually be enough.

Different Ad Colors in Google Adsense

Google allows a high degree of customization when it comes to formating the appearence of Google Ads. This is reflected in Googles offering of different Ad Formats and Ad Color. By properly chosing the colors you use with your ads to match the theam of the over all website, it is possible to make the ads appear as an integral part of the website and less like Ads. This improves the chance of a visitor clicking on those. The five parts of the ad which you can change the color on are: The border color of the ad The background color of the ad The link color of the ad The url color of the ad The text color of the ad

Understanding Adsense Channels

Adsense Channels allows us to understand:

• What amount of revenue that each of our websites are generating

• What amount of revenue particular pages or sections within one website are generating

You can setup channels inside your Adsense account which will enable you to track where your Adsense clicks are coming from.

There are two types of channels:

1. URL Channels
URL channels allow you track the Adsense performance under a specific URL. The URL could of an entire domain or subdomain or directory or even a specific page. The beauty of this is not you don't need to do any thing on the website side. Google automatically reports the Adsense performance with the URL. This is usful when you want to assess the overall performance of all pages under specific sections of your site.

For understanding this consider the following example provided by Google:

• example.com track all pages across all subdomains
• sports.example.com track only pages across the 'sports' subdomain
• sports.example.com/widgets track all pages below a specific directory
• sports.example.com/index.html track a specific page

2. Custom Channels
Custom Channels allows you to track the performance of a particular ad or group of Ads that you have generated, by placing a channel id all those Ads that you want to group and track.

With these channels the id for the particular channel you create is included in the actual Adsense ad code that you generate. Every ad that you include this code in, will report its performance under that particular channel even if they are different format sizes or appear on different pages or different websites.

Currently you are allowed to create upto 200 different channels.

Experience Infolinks - Single Dotted Line vs Double line

Infolinks provides In Text ads in two variants: Single dotted line and double line.

According to Infolinks, the double line ads will perform better than single line ads in most cases because with double line ads, they will be able to provide more relevant and premium ads. They also run a campaign "Double with a Bubble". You can check following video from Infolinks-

Talking about my experience, it was opposite of what Infolinks suggests. From the begining, i was using single dotted line in all my websites and CTR was good and i was getting fair amount of money as well. As per Infolinks suggestion, i changed single dotted line to double line and my CTR dropped from the same day. I continued it more than a week but there was no improvement. The amount I was getting in later case was less than what i was getting earlier. Then i decided to move to single dotted line again and from very next day, I saw a jump in CTR and the amout at the end of the day. The same trend is continue till now.

I am not sure what is the reason but single dotted line is working really great for me. For me, I guess, Single dotted line looks more a part of my website and does not divert the mind of my reader.

Make More Money with Infolinks Bye-bye Kontera

If you are a publishers then you would always be looking for an ads network that pays well for the efforts you put in your website. I am using Google Adsense on all my websites because its simply the best Ads network exist for small to large publishers. Along with Adsense, i thought of trying in-text ads from Kontera in order to make few extra bucks. Now I am saying bye-bye to Kontera because it was the worst perfomer for my sites. First I want to show you my Kontera earnings of last 6 months, then i will talk about Infolinks, the ads network of my choice.

This was my earnings for the period (7/7/2009 to 12/10/2009). Now you can imagine how poor the performance of Kontera is. To get the minimum payout which is $100, i  guess it will take another 7 months. $100 in a year with Kontera when the average impression is 3K-4K/day.

Leaving behind the Kontera, Lets talk about Infolinks. What Infolinks says about self is-

Infolinks presents the next generation of In-Text Advertising, leading the industry with the most relevant in-text advertising links and the highest revenue share - guaranteed.

When I got to know about Infolinks, I thought of giving it a try on my website. I removed the Kontera on one of my site and put Infolinks there and you would not believe that Infolinks from the very first day, paying me much-2 more than what Kontera. The points i noticed after applying Infolinks on my site were-

1. Speed of Site: Kontera was making my site slow while with Infolinks  my pages were loading much faster.
2. Nunber of Ads Impressions: Since both Kontera and Infolinks are in-text ads, so i would expect both of them to have more or less same number of ad impressions but the ad impressions with Kontera was way too less than Infolinks.
3. Earnings: After applying Infolinks, I realized that i was earning pennies with Kontera. Infolinks is converting 5-6 times better than Kontera. The following image will show my Infolinks earning of about less than 15 days.

This was my earnings for the period (07/12/2009 to 18/12/2009). As you can see i have earned $21.37 in just 12 days and according to this average, I would accumlate around $320 in six months, 7x of my Kontera earnings.

I guess it is enough for you to decide between Kontera and Infolinks. So Bye-bye Kontera and welcome Infolinks.
