OK, explain to me...

Here's the situation:

1) I bought a domain name that was dropped in the past, this domain name was ranking 5th in Google with high search volume
2) I create a website, slap in Adsense in the website and it is showing the ads. That's good.
3) The analytics shows that this site averages 50+ unique visitors PER DAY. That's great!
4) For the past 3-4 days, NO Adsense impressions or clicks.

OK, explain to me, is that a 'ban' or what?

    Uhm.

    Got one like that. ;-) Well, sorta, I don't know if this domain was dropped, but it is just a mystery.

    The one I have, I could not even add to google analytics. It just would not take the url. Really bizarre...

    Adsense did register SOME impressions, (a small fraction) and I made pennies per day, when receiving over 100 uniques per day. I since removed the Adsense just as a precaution, and it is right now just sitting there...

    Interested to see further feedback to your question.

    Wrong adsense publisher id. Generate new ad blocks, copy and paste them, compare to the old one. If it's not that, I have no idea.

      I thought of that too. I checked the source code and it's my pub ID.

      Other ideas? If not, I'll have to ask Google forum.

    perhpas the 50 people who visited your site have no interest in clicking on your adsense ads.

    Just because you have ads on a page doesn't mean anybody is going to click on them.

        well, ranking 5th for a keyword that only gets 50 searches a day... I wouldn't be surprised that he is getting next to no traffic.

    Check the domain name with the Wayback Machine and see if the site was ever associated with adult content, warez, etc.

    That could explain a total ban by Google.
