AdSense problem

Could some people try logging into adsense. I try to login and it says my application is not verified yet or something. I've used this account for months now.

" An AdSense account does not exist for this login, as it is associated with an unapproved application."

Please register or log-in into NamePros to hide ads

You should send them an email. __________________ Ryan Price - Webmaster www.HostDurham.com - For Hosting \| www.jeanco.ca - For Webdesign

I don't know what could have been violated.

This looks like the message people recieve if they haven't verified their email address yet. And I haven't gotten any emails from them reciently.

I'm getting worried that they froze my account, but I don't know why they would do it. I haven't changed anything about how i use adsense in two months

EDIT: Now the ads don't show on my pages! I still have yet to get any emails from google.

Normally they send an email warning message if there's a problem. Did you ever get one?

Doesn't sound good, keep us posted Kode.

Didn't recieve an email before this (as a warning) and haven't recieved one yet. Right now the server i am hosted on must be down, and I cant retrieve my emails. When I can, I will post an update.

Quote:

Hi,

We are aware of this, attacks have been launched from that server resulting
in more than 1.8GB a minute of data being aimed at other servers. We are
working on finding who is performing the attacks so we can terminate their
account.

They have the server shut off i guess

This is the second time this has happened to me, and I never click the ads myself!

Also on a side note: both times, this happened right before "payday".

Is it even worth responding to google?

Why did I not get invalid click warnings. And how can I help it?!?! Google just wants to keep as much money as they can for themselves so they find a miniscule problem and cancel an account for it.

I'm just mad that other people get warnings first, and I dont even get an email when this happens. Not one email telling me what they are doing and why. So I have to find out when ads don't show.

I think im finished with google.

Hi,
My account was reciently frozen for invalid clicks. I really don't
understand why my account would need to be removed when I can't control
what others click on and when. I have no incentive to force others to
click, and I really don't get many clicks in the first place.

I did not recieve a warning about the issue by email, so I didn't even
have a chance to find out what was happening.

I also did not recieve an email when the account was removed. I had no
notification at all. It just locked me out, and ads didn't display. Is
this the regular practice?
Could Google please review the cancelation, and give a little more
information on the reason.

Thanks for hearing me out,
Jason Tokoph

Can't they do anything

I think I'm going to sell my own advertising now. How does $20 a week sound for 1 of 3 banners in rotation on a site that gets around 10000 uniques and over 100,000 page views per week.

That's a shame about Google. $20/wk sounds reasonable.

I think I may have figured out why google cancels for invalid clicks!

I looked in my server logs and found that a MASSIVE amount of traffic came from one ip number. After doing a search on whois.sc for the IP i found that it was for a virginia school district! So the many kids that browsed my site may have clicked 1 ad a piece but they all came from one IP number. Google probably thought this was one person clicking when in fact it probably wasn't.

This is only based off of what I observed and have not contacted google about this (and probably never will).

The only adult content I have is a video from Africa showing how the tribes do circumcisions (OUCH! Not nice at all) f-em. Google seems to be more concerned with IPO than people anymore. the Spirit of Corporate America strikes again.
