Hi,

Does anyone know if google adsense block accounts without warning these days? As I know they send some alerts now if they believe account is violating TOS, but does anyone know if they do block accounts without alerting first?

    Your warning is the TOS you agreed to when first signing up. Google/Adsense doesn't play games.

    Even I got blocked this way by adsense. Any idea if I can get another account in it?

    I got a warning (adult content) but not an outright ban. They might be more tolerant of older accounts and/or users from Western countries.

    My friend got a similar warning and he successfully cleaned his site up and got ad serving enabled again.

      No offense but I find that very difficult to believe.

        They have been known to disable ads on some pages without notice,
        but an outright ban probably gets at least some notice.

        But google is under no obligation. People think google is some
        government entity, or perhaps a store that YOU are buying
        a product from. They are not, you are not. You can be
        canned anytime, without notice.

        There are actually several TOS of adsense that even some of the
        best intentioned adsense users either ignore or are ignorant of.

        I hope to keep myself out of that bunch.

        If I give you $5 under certain conditions, that you promise, then
        I feel you don't, and I take the $5 back. I have neither taken
        a dime from you nor stolen one penny. People mistake that as
        well. Google owes you nothing, has taken nothing, has stolen zero.

        If you were disappointed in your results today, lower your standards tomorrow.

      My friend got the same alert and got it all fixed - site is still running and ads are fine. That is why I am asking if google is banning these days or maybe they are more tolerant and alert first.

    When we sign up for Google Adsense, we agreed to the terms and conditions there which includes everything regarding blocking adsense. So that, blocking adsense without any notice is mostly simple. So, be careful always.

    Unless the site is something like ehow, I doubt very much Google will hold your hand & kindly send out a message asking to remove any offending content. Google doesn't have time to play around (messages), that's the whole point of even having a TOS.
