I here a lot about recent Adsense accounts getting banned. I'm doing everything possible not to have this happen. I spend a lot of money on SEO, Articles and WordPress widgets to actually make a little money. I have never had an account banned but I know others that have. One of those I know have offered me a couple of their sites at a considerable discount. Are these sites safe for me to place my Adsense account on? I have tried to read their terms but it's hard to find anything like this.

    Google is a large, multi-national, corporation and Adsense and search quality are two different departments at Google. They don't appear to coordinate activities although they do appear to share the same internal databases for their own purposes.

      Personally, I would stay away just not to risk my Adsense account. Think of it - you have sooooooooooo many options with your Adsense account - all the legitimate niches in the world are open to you for working on - happily build your site and work on them. Why even worry about getting this site? I would simply stay miles away - isn't it something obvious?

      I hope I could help you here !!

        Sound like good sound advice. I will stay away. What about buying a site unknowing it got banned from adsense? Is this possible?

      Your Social Security Number?! WTF are you talking about LOL!

      It's like this. Google can (and will) ban you if they feel like it. I've read multiple posts on here about guys getting their Adsense site conglomerates getting shut down by Google over night b/c they felt it was in their advertisers best interests...

      Google's a B*TCH! A Crazy b*tch... but f@#$& so good I'm on top if it

      They also send their spy van around to your house to get some photos of you and your family. Maybe follow you around town. Just in case you get out of line....

    I don't mess around with Adsense. It goes on legit sites, with useful content. If there's none of that then I don't put it on.

    If you're buying a website that has Adsense banned on it, then I would avoid because Google likes to track things to make sure that the same person doesn't open another one. If they did, the one thing they would do is put Adsense back on the same domains.

    So, once they are flagged as banned it's best not to buy them with the aim of putting Adsense back on, even if you are a different person.

    Google doesn't seem to care ...it'll just ban whoever it feels is suspicious.

        It really depends on why the adsense ban. You probably will not get a straight
        answer, as all who are banned think it was google's fault.

        Like Bgmacaw says, who knows how databases are intermingled?

        Keep in mind that a ban from adsense does not mean you have a bad site.
        The sites may very well be worth buying for traffic, as someone said.

        There are countless sites, that have google love and rank #1, but just break
        the TOS of adsense. Nothing wrong with that.
