Adwords ban

[ezubkov]

my client has 2 adwords accounts - one banned in 2009 and one where 9 of 11 ads are suspended - the other 2 ads run and he pays 6k per month for traffic - he still has net60 terms with no limit on ad spend b/c his offer converts so well.

he wants to clear his name so we can proceed further without risk of being banned - he is paying me a pretty penny to turn his 4/10 qual scores into 9's and 10's - he will get 2x the traffic at 1/2 the price and i am looking to make a major 6 figure bump to his bottom line this year so he can jstify paying my exhorbitant fee.

lol.

i am not getting much help from the folks over at the Big G - to be expected - they have suspended 9 of his ads for "artificial ad traffic" - at least that is their reason - any way he is legit - in biz for 12 years online - with 60,000 customers on his list and over 1000 testimonials on his site - my question is is there any way GG will connect the dots in 4 months once i have his adwords campaign fully optimized and running smoothly and say "hey arent you the guy who we suspended twice over the past 2 years???" or are we to be judged simply on what we do from here forward with this new account?

i am having his designer create 100 new landing pages to match the 100 unique ads for the 100 exactmatch kw's for the 100 unique ad groups - lotta work - but once its done its 10/10 across the board - with no mention of artificially boosting someone's traffic -- although isnt that what everyone is doing when they buy visits to their sites? this goes on all day long and no o ne seems to care - except GG but my client sells real human traffic not bot generated crap.

all love,

yes, barry. i want to cease all activity from previous accounts and start fresh. i want everything to be done above board unlike before when his last ppc guy just created a new account after the first was banned. i just want to get him set up clean and not have to worry about a future ban as long as i am creating ads according to gg's best practices.

thanks dave -

so if we pause all previous activity and start fresh with a new account then am i correct in assuming that google will simply "judge us" based on what we do from here on out?

i just cant risk another ban even though i have yet to work with this client i just want to reassure him that we wont get banned as long as we dont make false claims.

i really would like to ind out how to dispute this latest google suspension of 9 ads due to "artificial ad traffic" - they suspend the ads and email my client about it but did not include any link to how to lift the suspension or what recourse he has if any at all.

so our site wont be taking up 2 spots but how can we guarantee that we dont get banned or suspended 3 months down the road unless we can somehow address this artificial ad traffic issue now? wont it come up again and again?

he sells real human traffic. i think GG thinks it is just bot traffic designed to inflate traffic stats artificially.

any advice?

So you're set up in My Client Center and will be shutting down his existing campaign? If so, then you should be alright

If you're just making another account for him then you're breaking the ToS - http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=8759

You can have as many accounts as you want the issue is double serving for the same keyword. Google doesnt want your site taking up two spots.

i appreciate all your help. the only way to get anything done is to know someone who knows someone. thanks again.

[ezubkov]

picture this...i meet this guy...he becomes my client  and asks me to set up an adwords campaign for him...how would i ever know how many times he has done this in the past unless he just tells me. i would never have any way of knowing if he has 2 accounts or 20 so in that respect i dont understand how anything like that could be enforceable.

plus an actual GG emplyee told me i can have as many accounts as i want. that is the trouble these days. there really is too much misinformation everywhere. its hard to know who is telling the truth anymore.

[ezubkov]

i just emailed him? her? either way - thx for the tip. who exactly is this that i am emailing?

[StalkerB]

It's against the ToS to have multiple adwords accounts unless you've sought prior permission. If caught I'd expect them to shut down all your accounts.

The end of your question is just nonsense though and you seem to have accidentally a word or two.

Are you looking for a contact who can help you remove the ban?
