OMG, I came back from a short break and found a warning email from Google Adsense that I am to remove one post from my personal site or risk getting banned! Thank God, I only took two days off or if I had not checked my mail for three days, I will return to find my Google Adsense gone.
The post has been put into draft. It is actually a photo of the lighter that causes a photo of a girl to undress when you press the lighter. It is not exactly a porn-ish post but more of a discussion about how people have evolved to view things with a skewed mind compare to many decades ago when such things are not that ‘offensive’. I guess my point has been proven right.
Google also asked me to check that none of my posts contain materials like those. I have also taken down another post where my friend, shoppingmum had her computer infected with malware and all the Google Adsense on her site appeared as adult ads.
The email said that I do not need to reply as Google will find come back and investigate.
So, folks, do you have anything offensive on your site that may cause your Google Adsense account to be banned?
Here’s an excerpt of the mail :
As stated in our program policies, AdSense publishers are not permitted to place Google ads on pages with adult or mature content.
Please make any necessary changes to your web pages in the next 3 business days. We also suggest that you take the time to review our program policies (https://www.google.com/adsense/policies) to ensure that all of your other pages are in compliance.
