Online Business Opportunities

How being kicked out of Google AdSense lead to new online business opportunities.

I go the biggest shock last week when I received an email from Google AdSense with the subject line: Google AdSense Account Disabled. 

I had not done anything that I was not allowed to do (did not click on my own ads, did not ask anyone else to click on the ads, did not use autosurf programs). They are offering an appeal process, so I sent them all the details I could.

The next day, I got another email: "after thoroughly reviewing your account data and taking your feedback into consideration, we have re-confirmed that your account poses a significant risk to our advertisers. For this reason, we are unable to reinstate your account. Thank you for your understanding."

I sent another appeal, but have not heard back.

Very frustrating to be shut out from the onlines business opportunities that Google offer. And not being able to find out why or what I can do to change things.

The Alternatives

My first step for to look for Adsense alternatives. There are many other pay per click opportunities, but none as large as Google, so the ads you get served are usually fewer and of lower quality. 

My next thought was to look for an affiliate rotator software where I could place my own affiliate ads and have them automatically rotating on page reloads.

Two products stood out: ClickBank Buddy and ClickAds Pro. 

Both automatically update all the online business opportunities from ClickBank. So you have a pool of over 26,000 ads straight away. You can add your own affiliate ads (another problem solved: How do I manage my affiliate links in a simple way?)

I decided to go with ClickAds Pro, because it provides statistics. It also sources ads from PayDotCom and thus has a bigger pool to start off with.

The installation process was not quite as easy as they claim, but now that it is up an running it is very simple and versatile to manage.

Turning a problem into new online business opportunities

There are other people whose Google AdSense accounts have been closed down without them knowing why. There are quite a lot of posts about it on the net. Most are angry and threaten to sue Google.

Rather than wasting my time on that, I just moved on and found another way. And who knows, maybe that even turns out to be a better solution than what I had before.
