No More Google Adwords For Me!

What'd you do?

I never mess with AdWords, but my buddy did... he managed to get a ban, but turns out he has a wife... just sayin.

Google is Making Life Difficult My display network ads are not getting approved
I think now they have made some new changes in their policies and made it more difficult
Its time see some other advertising solutions

about 6 months ago, i was testing the waters with a few affiliate programs. I had heard rumors that google wouldn't let you direct link to affiliate offers (but being the person I am, I like to experience things first-hand) I thought i would try it myself.

Ran several ads for less than a day to "market test". Logged out of adwords and didnt think anything of it. I did get a few warnings for unacceptable landing pages at the time, so I shut off those campaigns.

Anyway, fast forward a few months, log back into adwords to see that its been "permanently suspended." don't know why they don't just say "banned."

I emailed and called them. Spoke with a lady for an hour. She just kept repeating the same thing over and over "since you violated the policy, there is nothing i can do."

She did say, however, that I could open up a new account and start fresh. Although, I think she was just saying that to humor me and get me off the phone. Because I've heard otherwise.

Though, I WILL try opening up a new account and see how that goes. Not going to go to the extremes of changing my ip, credit card, business info, address, etc. and all that. Just a new email and i'll see what happens.

Dang, sorry to hear. Maybe try chitika or other ad networks
