Google AdSense Account Disabled

My Google AdSense Account has been disabled:

Hello,

While going through our records recently, we found that your AdSense
account has posed a significant risk to our AdWords advertisers. Since
keeping your account in our publisher network may financially damage our
advertisers in the future, we've decided to disable your account.

Please understand that we consider this a necessary step to protect the
interests of both our advertisers and our other AdSense publishers. We
realize the inconvenience this may cause you, and we thank you in advance
for your understanding and cooperation.

If you have any questions about your account or the actions we've taken,
please do not reply to this email. You can find more information by

Sincerely,

The Google AdSense Team

This blog is now officially bankrupt and closed until further notice. Thank you all my followers for reading.

Blame Google for what is happening here. Google AdSense is the biggest scam in the world. I will never use Google again. Good luck in the future for those of you who are still using AdSense.

Good Bye.

How to make money from a blog? Infolinks


I added another advertiser to my blog. Infolinks is the leading provider of In-Text advertising. You will now see text link advertisements within the content of my blog. If you hover the mouse over that link, you will see a floating information bubble with an ad. Every time someone clicks on an In-Text ad, you get paid. It's as simple as that. How much do I get per click? I'm not sure yet. I'll update you guys later.

One week later, my blog is still marked as spam. I click on the button to Request Unlock Review, and it is asking me to request an unlock review again! I proceed to click on more buttons to request the unlock and this is the new message I see:

Your blog is marked as spam

Blogger's spam-prevention robots have detected that your blog has characteristics of a spam blog. (What's a spam blog?) Since you're an actual person reading this, your blog is probably not a spam blog. Automated spam detection is inherently fuzzy, and we sincerely apologize for this false positive.

We received your unlock request on June 10, 2009. On behalf of the robots, we apologize for locking your non-spam blog. Please be patient while we take a look at your blog and verify that it is not spam.

When are those idiots at Blogger or Google going to fix those stupid robots? If you are not capable of doing it, please give me a call and I'll write a new automated spam detection service for you. And I thought Google had the smartest and brightest engineers working for them.. please..

After 48 hours, my blog is still marked as spam. I am really disappointed since the revenue generated from AdSense and adwords has dramatically declined during the last 48 hours. I will now begin looking for another web hosting solution. Maybe this time, I should get my own domain name instead of using another free web service.

How to make money from a blog? Google AdWords


Have you ever wondered how much money Google AdSense generated in revenue per click? Or, have you asked yourself whether your content belong in a niche market that would generate high revenue? Well, you can now find the answer by visiting Google AdWords. This tool was meant to be used by advertiser to calculate their cost per click. But, my guess is that a large part of their cost will eventually end up in your pocket. I decided to test this tool by entering some keywords and here are some cost per click results:
  • money accounts = $14.18
  • blog = $3.13
  • movies = $0.93
As you can see, ads on money accounts cost a lot more than blog and movie advertisements. I should really consider writing more posts regarding money accounts and
