Apx3 weeks ago I purchased 3 Google Adsense ready websites. I have been promoting them by free search engines, classified,sending the links to everyone in my address book and numorous different ways. Yesterday I was booted from Google Adsense for "invalid clicking" or having an "automated system". Hundreds of Adwords ads are gone now. I told my friends to go through my sites and give me feedback on them. Was this the wrong thing to do? I am so totally new at all this. I don't sit and click all day and do not have any kind of "System" that would do it. I wrote to Google and tried to explain it to them but have not heard from them yet. Will I get the account back or is my money gone that I have invested, which is about all I had? Like I said, I am very new at this, we all have to start somewhere. Advice or input please. Thanks, BDN

Apply for the Yahoo Publisher Network it works the same as Google Adsense and don't tell anyone else about your web sites (play it safe).You will find out in time how it will do.Just be patient.

If you were shown the door by Google, it was for a reason. Did you ask family and frie4nds to click on the ads? Whether you actually asked or not is moot - it LOOKED like click fraud, so the site was given the heave-ho.
Yahoo does have a similar program, and it may be worth investigating.
Do yourself a favor BEFORE you contact Yahoo - make sure every single stitch of Google Adsense code has been removed form your site. The two programs DO NOT play well together - in fact, if one detects the other serving an ad on the same page, they shut down ads to that page.
Make sure you read the terms & conditions carefully - they explain exactly what will not be tolerated.
Heck, I have a habit of looking at my own site a few times a day and clicking through some pages (just proud of the work, I guess) - trouble is, I'm inflating ad views, which is against the T's & C's. now I don't think I'm goign to get snapped at for a few extra impressions each day, but if it started to add up, it'd be a problem according to the rules.

Yes, Google gave me the boot but they have sent me a letter allowing me to appeal their decision which I am doing. I haven't asked anyone to do alot of clicking and the same as you, I have a habit of going in and looking at the sites at least once a day or more which I now know is a big bad "no,no" with Google. I have considered Yahoo but haven't had the chance to really explore them thoroughly yet. My Google ID is still in all the right places but have been deactivated. Is that how they do it? I am very new at this and did not pay a whole lot of attention to the Google TOS which was really rather stupid of me to begin with.I have a million relatives that could have contributed also. Whatever the reason, I am trying to get the account back cuz I really don't want to go through the hassle of removing all the Google codes and starting over..UGH! Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it
