Hello everyone! I hope I'm not posting in the wrong forum.

Anyway, I used to be with Google Ads, but last week they kicked me off because my website is a "significant risk for their advertisers". Asking why that is, and giving them the possibility to look into logs, I got the reply that my website "is a significant risk for their advertisers.". I mean oh come on! I never clicked any of the links on my website, never asked anyone to click the links. I guess there's nothing I can do, even though they still owe me money, because it's in their TOS that they can shut anyone down without a reason.

Anyway, my question is: what is your experience with an advertising company? I've been going around several now, but neither has come up to the level of google. I got around $100-$120 a month with google, and for now I got around 5,25 euros for 8 days with valueclick. It was really low the first days, now it's gotten around 0.8 euro a day.
I have 52,568 page views until now (from 1 dec to 8 dec) with 62 clicks.
What do you all think, should I wait it out with valueclick, or should I try another one?

Any comments are appreciated, thanks everyone!

You could try Adbrite (http://www.adbrite.com/)

At one point they were claiming to have higher pay-outs than Adsense and were guaranteeing it. I don't see that claim any more on their Web site, but it would be worth a shot. What kind of Web site do you run?

It depends on the content of your website, the type of traffic you get, and the "integration" of the Ads, but at the end of the day, Google are paid by their advertisers, neither of whom are under "obligation" to provide any website owner with an income.

You might find a less well accepted/know more lenient advertiser, but I'd suggest also look at what it is your site is about and why you think Google booted it.

Adbrite doesn't pay worth a steaming pile of dung.

http://boostactivity.net is guaranteed $0.35 CPM, I know Upload3r (http://upload3r.com) uses it.

Thank you all for your rapid replies!

I have run it 1 day, and I got 6845 zone views, with 1017 cpm impressions, it earnt me $0.12, so I obviously wasn't too happy with that :).

I only used Google ads, and never clicked any of the ads run on my website, neither did I ask anyone in a news message, private message or whatever medium to click on the links. They might have without my knowledge, but I remember that I never got more than 5-10 clicks a day.
I repeatedly asked the Google representative why my website was booted, but he told me that he had to respect the privacy of their advertisers. Not a single word on why my website was booted.
My website is an online F1 manager game, so it's not that there is offensive content on the website.
I love google, but this has been a big disappointment.

Adbrite has two programs, I believe. One is where you offer ads for sale directly on your site or you can use their run of network campaign (which is similar to Adsense) in that you earn commissions based on clicks.

What you could do is sign up with a few different ad networks and put them into a rotation. Try three different ones in your rotation and see which one earns you the most money after a month. Then, just go with that one exclusively.
