Google adsense is considered the most popular and the best way to make money online. It’s very easy to use and completely free, however, there are instances that this program ban accounts due to violation of terms such as click fraud or placing it in unwanted type of sites.
Last night, my 6 year old adsense account was disabled and the reason presented to me was click fraud. I know that it’s hard to appeal for a re inclusion but as I really wanted to have my account back, I immediately filed a request. Unfortunately, this is the reply that I got from their team:
Hello,

For this reason, we’re unable to reinstate your account. Thank you for your understanding.

I own a network of websites using the adsense program and it’s hard to think that I have to work on another way to monetize them, good thing is there’s a lot of adsense alternatives that all of us can use.
Top Google Adsense Alternatives
- Adbrite – this advertising program has been around for several years already. It offers contextual advertising like adsense in banner, text, full page and inline form while visitors can also buy advertisement space on your site directly once activated. They send payment thru checks.
- Bidvertiser – also works like adsense with contextual advertising and customizable banner ad options. I have been using this personally and base on my experience, bidvertiser works best on internet marketing or make money online related blogs.
- Text Link Ads – Google doesn’t support buying of links to increase website popularity but if you can’t use adsense anymore, give Text Link Ads a nice space in your website. You can either have the links in your sidebar as a blogroll or thru your content.
- Yahoo Publisher Network – I have no experience using YPN as it is not available in my country but as it is owned by Yahoo and what others say, I’m pretty sure that this one is among the best alternative for Google Adsense.
i do not have any good experience with Bidvertiser, they pay lower than Adbrite so i do not use them on my website.*.*
I use both Adsense and Adbrite and i can say that adbrite is also a good source of income but not as good as adsense.“:
I have tried them both except adsense because i don’t have adsense account
I have been using adsense right now, but i’m still open to using the other alternatives, and googles policies regarding posting their ads is very strict that’s why oftentimes try to read their updated policies to ensure that i don’t violate their terms, i heard that it is possible to appeal for adsense but it takes a lot of works, and reasoning just prove that you didn’t violate their terms..
Thanks, does adbrite offer a 125×125 ad zone?
Adbrite is the ppc program that is second to adsense, i like adbrite`-~
i do not use adbrite because their pay rate is horrendously low compared to say infolinks “”:
adsense can produce 3 to 6 times than adbrite…. unfortunately google loves to ban publishers!
