    Amigo, a site is not necessarily banned and de-indexed because of AdSense. More likely, they'll ban your AdSense account because your content sites aren't up to quality standards. Quality content and following the rules protects you, just as it does now on BlogSpot.

    Sometimes a website can get de-indexed, but it is often from Google screaming "Made for AdSense" about the type of content quality on it. If you take the AdSense ads off of it, they no longer have a reason to care if it's MFA because they don't owe you anything. And you can improve the quality and get your rank back.

    Poor quality might hurt your indexing or ranking, but it doesn't violate Google TOS unless you are running a huge network of junk and costing them big bucks. Quality issues on your small scale shouldn't even hit the radar.

    Here is the KEY to making Google happy - don't show them junk content because their users don't like it, and that's what makes Google mad at you. So quality content and following the rules is the best safeguard you can have. But you need both.

    Banned from the index for a specific website is NOT the same thing as blacklisted. It just means they didn't feel it was high enough quality to share in the results. It's not like you're going to jail. You just have to earn your way back in with quality and resubmit your site for indexing. However, losing the AdSense account is harder to cope with. But you risk that even now with your Blogspot site if it's a content or abuse issue.

    If your current practices are solid - and there's LOTs on this forum from guys like XFactor about it - then your risk is low. All you're doing is investing what you've made into another platform for practicing your trade.

    One common tip is to put the site up, build up at least 10 pages of quality content for attractive keyword terms, and get everything nicely indexed and running for 3-4 weeks. THEN add the AdSense blocks.

    One thing that tips Google off is registering a domain, throwing up 2 junky and unreadable pages, and dumping ads on it the same day. It often triggers a manual review and that's when they get nasty about you.

    Break the pattern, fly under the radar like it sounds like you are, play content publisher since that's really what you are, and then move gently into monetizing. You don't look like a slash and burn greedy "throw up a site and run" AdSense guy. That's what they are punishing.

    And frankly, they're more suspicious of these type of sites on free platforms because they know you've made no personal investment or stake in your business. That makes them suspicious that you are exactly the type of fly-by-night guy they hate.

    Also regarding Blogspot, running any kind of business on a third-party site means you have no control over your business. If Blogspot disagrees with your site and bans your pages, you're gone and you can't get them back. Or the backlinks or indexing of the pages. Your own domain and hosting gives you the chance to build the site as an asset that you OWN and control.

    And there are lots of other AdSense type monetization options out there, if your AdSense account went caput. The web asset is your key.

    Check out the registrars for domains. GoDaddy often has some great coupons and 1and1.com runs sales regularly for like $3.99 to $5.99 domain registrations for certain .com, .net, .org domain extensions. Grab a good coupon and you'll spend a lot less on your domain for the year. Then search out one of Hostgator's cool "1st month for practically nothing" deals. For AdSense, you can go with the Hatchling plan for nearly nothing and you'll have plenty of resources to expand.

    That's a good way to start small and test, and get your feet wet. Get the right deals and for 2 months of hosting and a domain, you're looking at maybe $20 tops. Sometimes the Hostgator hosting deals or the registrar throws in a $25-$100 AdWords coupon for free, and you could use AdWords test campaigns to test your site up until you put AdSense on it. Drive a little traffic and figure out the best keywords to target. THEN optimize content, stop the AdWords, and start AdSense on the site.

    At your level, I'd be more worried about looking like a legitimate business than concerned that Google's going to crush your new website at your level. Just do the kinds of things on your site I mentioned - and read up from the experts.

    One last tip. If you want to make money on the Internet, you have to treat it in your head like a business, not a hobby to play at. And a business sometimes requires an investment. If you're tight on money, spend some time researching AdSense and learning the ropes while saving a little and practicing on your free account. Then take the plunge. A little more knowledge about your specific concerns might help you feel more confident about the investment.

    Kind of long, but hope that helps.

    Good luck. One thing I've seen on the forum that is great for people in the beginning stages of a project is to post a thread that you update with your progress.

    You don't want to share specific domains, sub-niches, or actual AdSense earnings (AdSense TOS, last I saw, prohibits you sharing actual earnings and actual sites so you want to avoid that at all costs, but you could talk about techniques and ups and downs. And giving away proprietary info on your business assets is never smart.) Sometimes some of the more experienced types will chime in on a good thread and you can learn a lot that way.

    Just be sure to screen the advice carefully. Check out other posts and Thanks on the forums to make sure you're listening to the right folks. XFactor, as I mentioned, is one good one.
