Which AdSense policy have I violated?

I have several websites that display Adsense ads. My most profitable is http://www.BestArabicMusic.net

Today I got this message from Google:

While reviewing your account, we noticed that you are currently displaying Google ads in a manner that is not compliant with our policies. For instance, we found violations of AdSense policies on pages such as bestarabicmusic.net.

Publishers may not place Google ads on pages that violate Google’s webmaster quality guidelines (http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py\?answer=35769#quality\). While we've included the following excerpts from these guidelines, we recommend that you take the time to review them in their entirety.

* Make pages for users, not for search engines.
* Don't employ cloaking or sneaky redirects.
* Don't load pages with irrelevant words.
* Don't create multiple pages, subdomains, or domains with substantially duplicate content.
* Don't participate in link schemes designed to increase your site's ranking or PageRank.
* Avoid "doorway" pages created just for search engines, or other "cookie cutter" approaches such as affiliate programs with little or no original content.
* Avoid tricks intended to improve search engine rankings. A good rule of thumb is whether you'd feel comfortable explaining what you've done to a website that competes with you. Another useful test is to ask, "Does this help my users? Would I do this if search engines didn't exist?"
* If your site participates in an affiliate program, make sure that your site adds value. Provide unique and relevant content that gives users a reason to visit your site first.

As a result, we have disabled ad serving to the site.


I am confounded. Which of these policies have I violated? I have no redirects, no keyword stuffing, no doorway pages, no affiliate links... I have (for the most part) original articles that I wrote myself. So what are they talking about?

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Probably because you are using adsense ad unit just under article heading which users might mistake it as content on website. You are only allowed to use "Advertisements" or "Sponsored Links" as ads headings.

Sufi, thank you for your advice. I have moved the Adsense blocks above the article headings.

What? Come on man.... be serious...
You can insert your google ads anywhere...

I really have no idea why did they stop serving ads.... Although, apparently they are complaining about the quality of your website... I have never seen a website that was excluded from adsense just because it didn't have good content...

Google regularly bans MFA accounts/websites, I think.

Friend, thats not the case.. According to google, you can not mislead your visitors so that they mistake the ads as your content (like too much blending, using fake article headings). You can not use images next to ads, you can not use labels other than Sponsored Links or Advertisements. And according to some people, the newest policy don't even allow to put ads under/near the navigation menu.
