Google Reinstated Banned Account

Andread Visklund account was baned due to click fraud, according to him, he was fooled into clicking those ads by an anonymous letter telling him the ways in filtering out unwanted ads.

I was given the chance to explain myself, and the AdSense team did listen. And to my great relief and happiness, my explaination and apologies were accepted and my account was reinstated. Within a day or two I will have the small ad box back again. I am given a second chance. Trust me when I say that I will do the best of it!

Lucky for him they never picked up on the fact that Andread also spoke publically about his earnings ($250 in that month he said)…. coz then that would have been two terms and conditions broken. Round two!

For your information, Andread Visklund has various CSS layout made available for free, and I’ve decided to boot all of them to Blogger. Will be busy coding again. Am looking for contributors in templates and articles, drop me a mail if you’re interested.

Blogger Crashes Server - Web Hosting Suspend Account.

Here is another reason why we should choose a good hosting company, and if you have a few blogs. Try not to host them under the same company, just incase the hosting comapny’s server crash, your other blogs are still up and making money.

idolbloglive.com is a very good example of how we can protect ourself from situation like this. Accordinng to Problogger, idol blog live crash when it reach 3500 page view per hour and the hosting company suspend the account, holding his blog for ransom by refusing him the rights to transfer it to another hosting company.

Unfortunately for it’s owner (djslim) his hosting provider suspended his account saying that he had crashed their server and is virtually holding his content ransom. He writes, “The only way to come back online or to retrieve the files is to upgrade my account which costs $110.00 a month.”

I guess blogger’s blogspot is still the best, no limits on bandwidth, blog still you drop. For your information, the hosting company is Surpass Hosting.

Google Adsense Blended Ads

google adsense

The adsense team have just announce their latest default settings for adsense, seems like there is a change in color. The ads currently display the default Google color palette, Seaside (formerly known as Mother Earth). The updated default palette would be known as Open Air, a new palette containing the same set of colors, but without the blue border.

“While they haven’t crossed the ’evil line’, the ’blend the ads to do better’ drum they have been beating shows they know where the $$$ are and further blurs the line between ads and content.”

Its kind of weird but why didn’t they done this earlier? I still believe it would be best for Google to keep the default borders, and for the advertisers’ sake, do force every publisher to use the border. The reason being simple, alot of publisher tends to blend their ads so close to the contents that most of the readers mistaken as part of the content, not knowing it is some form of ads they are clicking on.
