Common Google Adsense Rules

A publisher has a big role of complying to all Adsense Rules, or else, his/her blogs or websites will be banned. And as a new publisher, I've looked around for some reasons why most publishers have their Adsense account disabled.

With this, here are some things that a publisher should AVOID.

1. Do not click on your own ads. Do not even hesitate to click your ads, by any means of curiosity or for the purpose of testing. It will be counted as an invalid click and it may even be a reason for you to be banned.

2. Do not encourage others to click your ads. Don't even put texts that imply to click the ads in your site.

3. Do not join in paid to click, paid to surf, and paid to read programs. Do not put the ads in places that can generate traffic from different sites.

4. Do not place adsense codes in emails and pop-ups.

5. Do not place or link google ads in sites that contain pornography, violent, gambling and illegal activities.

6. You can have adsense and other advertiser in one site as long as the competitors do not look like Google. Try to use different font sizes, font styles and colors for each advertisers.
