Hi guys. My adsense blocks are just gray blocks on all my sites.

I checked other sites, and adsense is working on them... so looks like it's isolated to my adsense.

I checked my account, and my status says active... all looks normal.

Site in my sig is one example... just blank ads.

Anyone know what's up here?

    anyone?

    I've put a lot of time and money into my adsense sites and it would be nice to know what's going on.

      Spamming? I don't think so.. I'm using a warrior for hire on here for my backlinks... could it be that?

    What arnie is true or only your site is blocked.
    It happened to me once and I contacted google about it and they told me that site was only made for Adsense. And that was the reason it didn't show

      How do you contact google... I've searched this problem online, and it seems that google don't reply to any emails....

      UPDATE, I think it's my PIN... which I never entered..... as I'm in China, and it was sent to my address in Ireland.

      Anyway.... I only found this out after lots of searching online... you think they'd make it more clear.

        There is little chance of contacting google. I'm not sure why
        people keep coming up with that....

        Anyway, you are getting grey because that's the color of that
        part of your website, if it did not have adsense.

        If there are no ads available, you get white. Unless you have
        designated a color, which you can. You probably have not done
        that.

        So, no ads are showing, and it's not the white space that would be
        there if no ads were found.

        That leads to a belief that the site was banned. You do have
        formatting problems with the adsense code that might need
        to be cleaned up. That might work. If not, the site was banned.

        There's no content on the site. The site makes no sense, actually.
        You have Seibi-Shika dentist, Tokyo, Japan, then webcam stuff.

        You don't get banned from adsense just for spamming.

          Thanks Paul, this was a helpful reply.

          So, you reckon I'm banned? It's not just this site, but all my sites... some have lots of content, quality content I paid good money for.

          There's nothing in my adsence account about being banned, no notice, it says my ads are active.

          I never entered my PIN number, as I'm away, and haven't been home in a long time.

          Do you think this could be the problem?

      The site in my sig has no content, other than live webcams.

      That said, it gets a decent amount of traffic and the bounce rate is around 40%

      how dare you make money with adsense!

      what a strange reason... i've 50% adsense 50% amazon.... so can't be that bs reason.

      anyway, i think i may just sell them... a couple of em have good rankings and are in good cpc niches.

      did you sell them on flippa? never used flippa myself.
