Hi, I've been buying traffic domains and parking them hoping to monetize these names. I've bought some domains that has been banned by Google even before I bought them. It's wasted money for me. Here are some queries I have.

1. I'd like to know if there is a list out there that tells us which domains have been banned by Google Advertising.

2. I know there's a way to check whether a domain has been banned by Google Search but I've forgotten the link. Can anyone post the link here?

3. With Google exiting the Domain Parking environment, will the banned domains be unbanned by the parking companies?

4. Can a Google Advertising banned domain monetize from Adsense?

5. How long before Google removes the Banned status from a domain?

6. How do you monetize your banned domains?

Thank you.

Thanks.
What's the difference between the tool above versus "me going to google.com and typing the url into the search box"?

The tool above seems to evaluate whether the domain is banned in Google Search or not. Does any1 know how to check if the domain is banned by Google ad feed or not?

Thank you.

That's easy...add your name to ND or another parking co with Google feed and check feed with URL forwarding...then if not banned,buy it!

6. How do you monetize your banned domains?
Park your name at Parked..

Well, I can only do that after I buy the domain. I'm trying to avoid spending good money buying a banned domain. If there's a way to check whether a domain has been banned by Google feed or not before I buy the domain, then it'll save me (and everybody else) lots of money.

I have been in the same boat as you...

If it is a very high traffic site , say 3Kto 4K visits/day or more then everything in the context of youtube video sites , warez , serials and sorts will be banned.If you do not see adsense on the site before you take it off to park the probability is it is banned from google.

ND may take 10-20 days to tell you the site has been banned in case if it is low traffic.However you can always used parked as it has given me some great results with names that have been banned with adsense.

Apart from experience there are very less resources that tell you that the site is banned from google revenue stream.

I don't know of any way, short of contacting Google, to know for sure whether or not a domain has been banned. You can tell if it's filtered, you can usually make an educated guess whether or not it's being penalized, but banned? No, not if you don't own the domain, you can't tell for sure. Nor is there a way for that tool to know either.

If they will add any domain instantly,why you must be owner of domain?

huh? If you don't own that domain, then how are you going to set the Nameserver to point to the parking co that you want?

Personally, if I were considering putting out a considerable amount of money for a domain that was supposed to be a proven earner, I would add that domain to one of my parking accounts, and ask that the DNS server be set to that domain in my account for 24 hours.

If I was not planning on spending much for it, then I'd probably just see if I could find a history for it in archive.org, and if it looked reasonable, take the chance.

(But I only buy brand new names, so I might not be the best one to advise)

But Google doesn't give out information on what is banned either from Search or from the Advertising feed, except to the parties who own or control the domain itself, and they do that through Webmaster Tools or direct communication. Any tools out there that claim otherwise are just making a guess, same as you would be.

Does anyone have information on how to have an Advertising "ban" lifted or reversed by Google?

I didn't told you to change the ns of domain that you wanna buy! you can add any domain to your ND CP and check feed by URL forwarding feature...
If you saw an ad,domain status is clean :)

If you see a parking page, then the domain is not blocked by Google domain feed.

That is sheer brilliance...This makes it so much easier...repped yea.

This is the perfect way to comfirm blocking. Thanks for the tip.

One question, the site in your example (gogle.com) says "This domain has been blocked". When I change to my domain in question however, the message says "Domain no longer supported by advertiser".

Does anyone have any idea why the difference or what I need to do to regain the ability to display adsense ads?

Thanks in advance,

How can I reinclude content I've removed from the Google index?

When you use the URL removal request tool to remove content from the Google index, your content is removed for a minimum of 90 days. However, you can reinclude your content at any time during the 90-day period by following these steps:

1. Sign into Google webmaster tools with your Google Account.
2. Click the URL for the site you want.
3. Click Tools, and then click Remove URLs.
4. Select the Removed Content tab, and then click Reinclude next to the content you want to reinclude in the Google index.

Pending reinclusion requests are usually processed within 3-5 business days

The domain was blocked by NameDrive, at their initiative.

You can also check any domain, if it has been blocked by domainsponsor with this link:

http://searchportal.information.com/?domainname=yahoosucks.com

Obviously, you should replace the name with the one you intend to by.
