I just got this. I admit it was not a surprise since I had been warned elsewhere to expect this (but I though I'd let it go until my number came up.)

Hello,

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 http://www.freecashpro.com. SPAM REMOVED

As stated in our program policies, AdSense publishers are not permitted to place Google ads on sites with content related to programs offering incentives to click links or ads, read emails, or surf other websites. This would include, for instance, auto-surf sites, pay-to-read email networks, and sites comparing various pay-to-click programs. Please visit our Help Center (https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=105951) for more information.

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

Your AdSense account remains active. However, we strongly suggest that you take the time to review our program policies (https://www.google.com/adsense/policies ) to ensure that all of your remaining pages are in compliance.

Please note that we may disable your account if further violations are found in the future.

Sincerely,

The Google AdSense Team

Not a biggie for me as Google provides only a VERY minor portion of my income - Just FYI

I just have to switch all my AdSense ads to BidVertiser ads and accept the fact that I'll be getting about half of what I had been getting from AdSense - again, no biggie (their loss.)

SPAM REMOVED

Google adsense does not accept GPT PTR PTC from 2005 .

They don't like Incentive traffic .

It isnt incentive traffic, it is just a site that advertises incentive sites, big difference in my book

BidVertiser hates the sites even though doubt they have problem with that one. All there losses was planning to use both to promote paid to sites but since they hate us so much why give them my money.

Just a head's up ... Bidvertiser did the same thing to me that Google did to you. It is somewhat confusing with what they allow. Officially, they do not allow ads on incentivized sites, yet many ptc sites do run their ads and do get paid by them. I suppose it boils down to how successfull you are. I was very successfull using them and had amassed a lot of clicks, which is when they played the tos card. Adbrite also disabled ads on my sites.

Peace,

Bob

I really don't see the big deal since it's not a GPT site, it only talks about GPT sites.

Google adsense do not accept GPT sites because they are PPC affiliate network and there is a high probability of invalid clicking on google ads on such sites.

Actually, I am not incentivizing any traffic on that site, I am only talking about and referring people to GPT sites.

Usually Bidvertiser allow ptc sites but lately they started to NOT. I couldn't place bidvertiser ad on my blog!! lol =p

Adbrite also didn't like my ptc blog.

Adsense is very clear about incentivized marketing and GPT activities in their TOS. You can earn unlimited income as long as your comply to their terms.

As for bidvertiser, they recently canned me after years of membership. I had their ads only on a blog about GPT.
I've now replaced bidvertiser with affiliate ads from clickbank and I sell links via text-link-ads.

I took all Adsense ads of my entire domain which used incentivized traffic. They monitor the whole domain not just pages on the domain. So if you set up a page on your domain with no Adsense ads and you send incentivized traffic to this page and you have Adsense ads on other pages on the domain which receives no incentivized traffic you still can have problems. Even talking about incentivized traffic seems to be a problem which I think is a bit much.

I had a similar letter but it was a lot worse. They said I was comprimising the integrity of their advertisers and business yet would fail to tell me how or what I was doing.

Anyway- I went with comission junction. So far I had over 116 affiliates pick up my sites. I am very excited and I like the fact that I can load all of their banners into a zone (make sure all ads in the zone are the same size) and only have to place it in my code rotator once instead of each individual banner. Once banners are expired, new ones can be placed within the zone, pushing the old banners or ads out without having to search through the code. All zones can hold up to 25 banners! Awesom in my book!

I will keep you all psted as to if they pay, how often and what I got. I just started loading things into my click view earn dot info site. They have some of the best affiliates like yahoo small business and others that you may not normally get into on your own.

Wow I'm long winded....sorry.....
