$12,000/month Adsense account disabled, Please Help!
- SEO |
I found this site about a week ago and have been mostly lurking. I've got an old authority site that I developed 5 years ago for first time home buyers in the real estate/mortgage niche. Back in the boom days, I was getting $60 per mortgage lead and the site was generating about 5 of those per day.
Then the real estate market crashed, and nobody bought mortgage leads anymore. I didn't do a thing with that site for 2 years.
Then a couple of weeks ago I decided that I should monetize that site, since it's an authority site and get several thousand visitors per day from the big G.
The site has got hundreds of first page G listings, including many number 1 spots. Rather than just let it site there with all that traffic basically going to waste (from my point of view, not the visitors), I thought why not at least put Adsense on the site and get some revenue.
Turns out that the site generates $400 per day in Adsense clicks over the past 15 days that Adsense has been on the site. Then, just a few minutes ago, I go to check my numbers for the day, and my account has been disabled.
I have no idea why. I use Frontpage 2003 to edit my site. a few hours before my account was disabled, I had been working on it. I definitely did not click on any ads.
I filled out the appeal form, but I'm not hopeful. I've advertised on Adwords a lot in the past, spending as much as $30k/month, but found the big G super miserable to deal with from a customer service point of view. I've found that their attitude (at least for me) has been basically "buzz off" and go away. We can't be bothered.
For those that are willing to look at the site, send me a pm and I'll send you the URL. I had originally thought of posting the URL here, but since my account is being appealed and one of the questions was does my log show suspicious activity from suspicious IPs, maybe all of you should not be swarming the site all at once. But if you have a suggestion, I'm all ears.
Did I violate some unknown (to me) guideline? Did a competitor click on a bunch of my ads to get my account closed?
What do I do? Sell my site to LendingTree? Do I put Chitika ads on the site? I've looked at their cpc and it doesn't compare to Adsense. Don't really want to sell, I want to keep this site for long-term revenue and passive income. Decades from now when I pass away, I'd like to leave the income stream to my heirs.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, especially from Adsense experts. I'd hate to let a $150,000/year passive income stream just disappear... especially when the site is still there, getting all that traffic.
Thank you.
