AdSense Account Problems


Google AdSense is a great way for any website owner to earn an ongoing passive income from a website. However getting an account can be hard as your website has to comply with a lot of important criteria that Google give out in their Terms Of Service (TOS). Fail to meet these and your site will not get approved and your application will be rejected. Also note that once your site has been rejected it is notoriously hard to get a re-submitted site approved for the programme.

If your site does comply and you successfully apply for an account then you will want to make very sure that you do all you can to keep it. This is because if you get banned from Google AdSense then legally speaking you are not supposed to re-apply to the programme. Many people do re-apply after a ban and then wonder why they get turned down, well being banned once would be an obvious reason! 
However, many people simply fail to realise that it is their website that is banned as well as their account. This means even if you get a new account, by buying one from a dubious source as an example, if you put the code on your old (Banned) site then they will just ban you again, and again. This is because the minute the Google bot scans your site and finds a new code on a banned site then it bans the new account automatically.

This means if you have bought an account then you have just wasted your money. You also need to understand that any site you were running it on a the time of your ban will never be able to run AdSense on it again. Even if you were to sell the banned website the new owner could not run it on it, if they tried to run their own code on it then their account would also get a ban. This is something to keep in mind if you ever decide to buy a website, as you could be in for a shock if you suddenly got a ban as a result of the previous owner of the sites actions.

Also you need to be aware that buying or selling an account is strictly against Google's terms and conditions and worst case you could face legal action. Also I would suggest that it is not wise to by something that you have no idea where it came from. As an example would you buy a new car without any ownership papers?
