   I agree with looking for the accounts that don’t “bear fruit”. However, the problem I have is the process google goes through with these accounts. They don’t give any warnings, they don’t give them any ability to appeal, and they don’t respond to any emails.

   I too am an advertiser. I pay plenty of money to google each day in adwords advertising. I understand the advertisers desire to be protected.

   However, right now google is permantly banning people’s accounts who did nothing wrong. These people are people who are honest, hard working people who just want to do what’s right. I know them personally. In the long run, they’re going to do a lot of good for a bunch of advertisers. Google however, is not going to be the means for that advertising. Right now, Yahoo isn’t either, but I suspect that at some point Yahoo will have the opportunity to be that company.

   I have now had 3 accounts that were banned and then re-instated when I appealed for the person. They all tried appealing on their own, and google didn’t even respond to them. They had no recourse. Then, when I appealed for them, google finally did something about that. I have adsense accounts that make a lot of money, and google knows that, and that’s why I believe they re-reviewed those accounts.

   This doesn’t look or sound or feel like a company who is interested in helping “the little guy”, which is how google got to the point they’re at right now. They’re so big because for years they were interested in helping that single person out there who needed help. They would respond to support questions. They provided the best search engine results.

   That’s all changing now.

   That’s why I believe google is on its downfall.

   Please show me why I’m wrong. I’d love to believe that google is going to avoid the wall street pressures, but that’s not the way I’m seeing it happen.
