I really hate Google...rant

I've had accounts adsense and adwords since 2004 and have never violated their TOS in any way. Now my adwords account has been closed because they say I have had repeated landing page violations. Which is a lie...I haven't even used the account in 3 years.

Also, I'm locked out of my adsense account and can't log in because it says: "this account is associated with a denied application" I did re-apply on their advice "re-apply and we will work it out from there" My account is still there but I can't access it because of their convoluted password recovery mess. The account does or did have money in it.

I see their forum has many posts about "password recovery" that haven't been resolved.

This all started when my ISP switched to G-Mail and Google switched my G-mail login email address to an address I haven't used in years and no longer have access to.

I need to open a new different ad account and wonder if anyone can recommend anything.

thanks jimmymc

      What do you mean? How is amazon an alternative to a blogger blog?

        Jimmy, I feel your pain. In a nutshell, I lost my Adsense account a few years ago when, as requested by Google, I started reporting sites that were scraping my content and violating the copyright. Seems one of the perps was some kind of syndicate, and they click-bombed my account out of existence...

        I think the other poster was referring to using Amazon's associate program as an alternative to Adsense...

    Hi Jimmy...Same thing happened to me a few years ago. It all went belly up when Nintendo hit google for a boatload of money...I was doing like $3K a week from one ad..

    Have you had a good look to see why it happened, did you have any copyright violations etc..

    They are very strict on that...

      I don't think so...all my content is 100% original written by me and I run it through copyscape premium just to be sure there are no conflicts...anyway I'm not using googles stuff anymore unless hell freezes over and looking for replacements.

        Sorry to hear that John... but it's crap like that I'm really upset about. They will can an honest publisher and let the blackhats run rampant. There are some that log hundreds of thousands a day with adsense cheating all the way.

        I hope you have risen from the ashes...I intend too.

        I have several amazon sites but haven't made much money yet. I haven't got a handle on how to do it right...but I'm working on it.
