Quick Guideline 1: Avoid invalid clicks
Google AdSense seriously prohibited on the invalid clicks on their ads. The frequently occurrence on invalid click might result to the account disabling. The best way to avoid this invalid clicks is make sure you locate log files in your web server, by doing that, you can monitor your web site activity, visitors, etc... if you found any suspicious activity on your site, then you can report those activity to Google. This will help you from getting banned by Google.
Please do not integrate the ads into something else. Just let the ads on its own. Do not placed ads near to the buttons or text hyperlinks as it may result in unintended click that might be considered as invalid click.
Do not buy traffic as this might contribute to the invalid clicks and cause to your AdSense account be banned.
Quick Guideline 2: Do not ever encourage user to click your ads.
Make sure placed your ads properly, and never ever encourage your visitor to click on the ads. To avoid this separate the ads at least 10px so that there is a space between them. This will look clean and clear.
Quick Guideline 3: Be careful with your content
Make sure you write a good content. Also be careful if you take content from another source, I am afraid that this will cause to "duplicate content" by Google. Make sure there are no excessive repetition content on your site. Google seriously prohibited such contents as below;
Pornography, adult or mature content Violent/Crime content. Hacking/cracking content Gambling or casino-related content Illicit drugs and drug paraphernalia content Any sales of beer or hard alcohol, tobacco or tobacco-related products, prescription drugs, weapons or ammunition, distribution of coursework or student essays (copyright related). Excessive profanity Content related to racial intolerance or advocacy against any individual, group or organizationQuick Guideline 4: Be careful in choosing free web hosting To those newbie out there, please make sure you select to subscribe free hosting that does not have pop-ups and pop-unders that might interfere your site navigation. Please do not provide initiate download or any program like that to your site as this is also against the Google policy.
Quick Guideline 5: Make sure there is a "Privacy Policy" page on your site
Google imposed this "Privacy Policy" must be on your site. The "Privacy Policy" page must contain the related information such as; DoubleClick DART cookie, Log files, Cookies etc... However, I have no idea on how the "Privacy Policy" page looks like. But the easy way is find the others site that already have this "Privacy Policy" related to Google AdSense Policy, copy and modified them as suit to your site. Then put it in your "Privacy Policy" page.
So the above quick guidelines are the most common mistake to the new Google AdSense publishers. By providing this article, I hope it will reduce the mistake, and avoid their AdSense account from getting banned by Google.
