AdWords ban ... ClickBank product
- SEO |
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to IM but it's interesting me and I've bought many products to learn more.
I decided to jump in with some affiliate marketing. ClickBank took my fancy. I'm a gamer so Diablo3Billionaire looked a good starting product.
I built a page. I used diablo in the url and on the page. Ads were being disapproved. I got some help from support asking me to change url to D3 and remove Diablo (copyright term) from the page. I did all this. Then was suspended.
Later I learned the page I had built was what Google deem a "bridge" page and so was banned even though I had been complying with Support.
I then get another mail telling me that my URL was at fault, then the second was a landing page (I went and deleted the site I built thinking this would fix issues) and then finally that the main sales page that my affiliate link pointed at was in breach of "User Safety" policy.
Google have written back to me and tell me that no matter what I do with URLs and sites in my control, my account can never be un-suspended as the final 3rd party site is in breach. How unfair is that?!
I've written to the site owner with no reply - I thought he would see the value in making his site comply so his affiliates could work unhindered, but apparently not.
Has anyone come across this before?
How do we know what is "safe" to promote?
Can I ever get un-suspended? Would a paid-for mediation service help?
I don't want to resort to underhanded techniques to get another AdWords account so I won't do that.
I'm a Google customer (I pay for the ads, right?) and I feel they've shafted me without fair warning, help or support.
Any advice?
Cheers
