Hi Volker,

Google clamped down on anyone that even looks like a network marketing company or home business but you can still rank if you do some homework.

Use the google keyword tool to find some keywords with lower competition and high searches.

Then start to write articles, blogs, posts or anything really using those keywords in the article etc to get you ranked on the organic search engines.

It takes longer but can pay off big time if your are consistent and persistent.

Also though not searched as much, Yahoo is far cheaper than google and they seem to be fine with most websites as long as they are not too replicated.

Hope that helps

David

Hi David,

thank you very much for your answer!

Yes, Yahoo is really cheaper and I generated really nice results with it in the last weeks.

I would say I did a classical mistake - all money on one horse - Google.

Now I have ads in Microsoft - Yahoo and Banners and generating new customers everywhere.

Best wishes

Volker

I don't know the reason you got banned, but I assure you they have a reason. You must carefully read their guidelines.

I don't know your site, you say you are a web design company. Without having seen your landing page(s), I can only speculate.

As for other networks, you don't have much choice now. However, I would advise to still follow Google rules because the other networks, talking specifically Bing/Yahoo here, are now realizing they must be more like Google. So my recommendation is to still look over Google's guidelines as well as Bing and fix whatever needs to be fixed. Otherwise, by this time next year, you'll just be complaining about having been banned from Bing's Adcenter for no reason.

> It doesn´t matter because THEY loose all the money of paid advertising.

No they won't. You don't understand the system. First, they have lots of advertising inventory. Second, by removing low quality advertisers, this increases the quality of the inventory. When inventory quality improves, the search engine makes more money, even if a lower quality advertiser is willing to pay more. That's why the Quality Score system exists. It not only is a fair system for all, it generates more revenues.

Here are some tidbits
No ambiguous claims, or "incredible" claims...DO NOT MAKE INCOME CLAIMS... EVER
Your landing page cannot be built with the SOLE FOCUS of collecting NAMES ... there needs to be content, value, AN OUT from your landing page...

What do I mean ? well most landing pages just have button on their PAGE... that's the submit button...THIS IS A NO NO !

No more URL forwarding ... What this means ... is do not mask your replicated site... financialfreedomwealthnow.com can not be forwarded to superduperleadgeneration.com/affiID=1234?-ffjgfh

Whatever you get my point...

You want to kick butt on GOOGLE ADWORDS ? well you need a UNIQUE LANDING PAGE ... that offers your prospects links out ... possibly to your main site...

A great example would be http://www.statefarm.com/landing/quote/ ... =searchbuy

this landing page would look like all that it is intended to do is to collect information or get a quote from the landing page.

What many do not realize is that the LOGO on the TOP LEFT IS A LINK... to the MAIN DOMAIN...witch has LOTS OF CONTENT...and additional links ...

When the Googleadbot spiders your landing page it will follow all your links ... so if you do NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT have a link out from your landing page to your main domain that in turn has more links that link deeper... you will get screwed... It is also advised to have a robot.txt file that will tell the spider to evaluate all pages beyond the form...

There is much more that can be done to be in GOOGLE's GOOD GRACE... but if you want to get back on Google you should do so through a GOOGLE ADWORDS SPECIALIST...)))))

There are many other things you can do to increase quality score of page...

Age of account

Value of traffic (truth be told...the keyword Home Based Business) has a super low quality score by default ...Google likes to go by historical value. So if you are a new landing page, guess what... you will pay for the poor quality of marketing BEFORE YOU, up until GOOGLE can collect data on your ad performance... until it does, it will use their historical data on traffic and quality scores of other landing pages as a gauge for your site.

Make 250K in six months WILL GET YOU LANDING PAGE BANNED
SAY THINGS LIKE BEST BUSINESS ONLINE AND GET YOUR SITE BANNED

focus on being product centric and offering information, as a way of building your list

Now the crazy new strategy of Google reached Europe!

Yesterday they closed my Google Adwords account because I am breaking their rules too often.

They say I made ads for a get rich quick scheme. Surprise!

I had ads for my webdesign and for my Facebook Business Pages on Google Adwords.

I deleted my account now.

And here is my question for you the community of Betternetworker:

In USA Google did this one or two years earlier.

How do you advertise now? And what worked best for you?

Yes I made my sure my new website ticked all their boxes, as they closed my ads down ages ago.Did you have a blog attached to your site?

Having a blog and social media links will help show you are a real person with real products or services.

I also advertise on Yahoo as they are not as fussy and its cheaper though less traffic and not as good as adwords.

Hope that helps:)

Exactly. I think this thread for the most part is a bunch of bullcrap. I've read some of your postings on your website and I see why your site was banned. I'm not sure about Wynkoop but based on his past activities that were nationally televised, it would lead me to seriously question your statement. I don't mean any disrespect at all personally but I have to say that their are serious issues with your website that unfortunately were not addressed in time

For the most part, Google only bans people when there is a sufficient amount of complaints about your site. If you got banned then changes are, there was a bunch of people complaining about your site. Google's job is to make money and if you're creating a bad experience for a customer then you're going to get spanked

But as one person said, there are other options to getting your message out. I don't use Adwords at all and rely on White Hat SEO methods to bring traffic to my website. Adbrite, Bing, Yahoo, ExciteWeb and other places will certainly work in your favor and you'll actually get more traffic overall.
