Why Google deletes adsense accounts and how to avoid losing yours

With Adsense being one of the most popular pay per click programs ran by multi-billion dollar corporation, it is inevitable that many webmasters will try to make money through fraudulent activities.

Google being one of the most reputable sites online, they need to take all actions required to protect advertisers and ad publishers. They need to make sure that people aren’t scamming their advertisers or Google will lose reputation and business. There is tough competition out there for Pay per click advertising and Google stays at the top by maintaining a high level of security and intolerance towards any fraud.

When a blogger or webmaster starts using Adsense, the first thing that comes to their mind is; does this program work? This question bothers them and what do they do? They click the ad to see if the revenue appeared in their Adsense account. This is a minor issue, but anything along the similar lines will get your account deleted in no time.

The key to not getting an Adsense account is by realizing what causes the closing of an account in the first place, and here are most common ones:

* Clicking your own advertisement If you think that you will make millions of dollars by logging onto every single computer in your area and going to every single library, then you are way off! When you visit a website, they can track your IP, area code, country, city, and even locate your area on Google Maps. Even free blog sites provide this service, and Google uses this to allocate all your clicks and see where they came from. If 100% of your clicks came from Toronto, and you wrote about New York City, then they will keep a close eye on your traffic, because this is just unrealistic. Click and your ads and submit your revenue back to Google, because you aren’t getting any.

* Multiple clicks by a user: This one might bother some webmasters. Some people can actually cause trouble to your revenue, if they click the ads too much. In most cases, however Google will be able to resolve the issue. If you suspect someone is purposely clicking your ads multiple times, then report it to Google and they will take care of the matter.

* Incredibly high click rate: If all your visitors click ads, that again can be held against you because it is unrealistic that all or most visitors will click the ad; in most cases the opposite should happen since advertisements annoy many internet users. Sometimes an account might get suspended even if the webmaster did everything legal. This is done to protect the advertiser’s rights. Because people who use Adwords pay tons of money and want to make sure that they get the right traffic and if they are getting useless clicks they will simply look for another partner to host advertisements.

These are the reasons why Google closes accounts.

Google doesn’t enjoy closing accounts; in fact they lose money every time they close an Adsense account. If you account has been closed, simply switch to some other form of advertisement or another pay per click advertiser. There are plenty of other programs, and you need utilize them.
