Are you guys saying that if you type in a gambling keyword like “online casino” in google you are still seeing sponsored listings?
I can confirm what is being said here… They wont say this to you but its the real deal.

well, i did something stupid, i created a campaign in google and sure enough it was hard to get the ads running even if it said active on them all. then i got creative and it did work for a day or two and THEN bam as i should have expected the disapproved the ad.
I rush to google and check the domain if it is in the index and … well what can i say they dropped it from the index too! :Cry:
It is just a site i chose specifically for that! but DONT try to do it, cause you will lose your natural google traffic as a result.
oki, that was all for now

Nope..I think more or less anything with ‘casino’ in your adwords is gonna trigger the big google no no. But you can use adwords to target very specific gambling related keywords/phrases that can be still be used to make a profit.
oki finally i am back in the index. but that was it for me!
Anyhow, i think that yes there are many nich keywords. I was doing good from some like “us players welcome” then they stopped running but said it was active. so i think when they find them they dump them in the special phrases for gambling category.
I have many in mind but i dont feel like trying … or do i :tongue:
I’ll also throw it in that once you get banned from adwords you’ll never be able to open an account in your name again and have ads run – gambling or not. They don’t tell you that you’re banned and all your ads look like they are fine in new accounts – but they will never run.
I had the same experience in getting permantly banned from Google Adwords. Google does ban you for life running any type ad campaigns. I appealed to Google, but they are not forgiving in the least. Should of know better, but hey I was gambling. At least now I know I was not the only one that got banned.
How long did it take them to notice the t&c violations? I’m not sure how regularly they review accounts. Some people have thousands of ads running.
Also – I am guessing they warn you first to remove the advert or change the text/landing page?
And
If you are banned, can’t you just open a new account through a “friend” and change the landing page etc?
yes
and
yesYou can also purchase pre activated accounts that are already loaded with vouchers. Don’t ask me where because I wont tell ya but with a little research you should find them on your own.
I’ve never been warned – they just stop running the ads they don’t approve of.
Google stop running the ads, and usually send this email:
“Hello,
Thank you for advertising with Google AdWords. After reviewing your
account, we’ve found that one or more of your ads or keywords does
not meet our guidelines. You can see your disapproved ad(s), the

That’s good they send a final warning first. I’ve always found them very fair and liberal, compared to say overture.
