Frequently, there are people posting messages at the Google AdSense Help group saying their account had been suspended. The usual reason is invalid clicks (what clicks are invalid it totally up to AdSense to judge but this is how AdSense Help define invalid clicks: “Invalid clicks are clicks generated through prohibited methods. These prohibited methods

1.AdSense 收入 = 广告展示次数 x 点击率 x 点击单价 x 智能定价因素（Smart Price） 2.广告展示次数基于你的网站流量，该项代表Adsense广告展示次数。（译注：废话－。－！） 3.点击率为广告被点击次数÷广告展示次数，基本范围为0.1%-30%，大多数为1%-10%（译注：中文广告偏低，大陆地区平均点击率约0.2%）。 4.点击单击为每次点击的收入，一般根据广告商付出的点击单价决定。 5.智能定价机制为Google衡量你的网站刊登广告价值的系统，如果你的网站上用户点击广告后转化为购买用户的比例较低，您只能获得较低的收入。 6.通过 blogger.com 申请Adsense项目，帐号批准速度更快。 7.不要点击自己网站上的广告，也不要让朋友去点击，包括使用代理服务器的情况下。（译注：Google会实时反查服务器代理服务并拥有大量代理服务器地址） 8.不要使用自动点击程序。 9.不要要求访客点击广告，Adsense广告周围仅允许放置“赞助商链接”或“广告”字样。（译注：推介广告可放置正面宣传文字。） 10.不要在放置Adsense的网页放置网页内容匹配广告，例如Yahoo Publisher Network，百度主题推广。可以放置与页面不自动相关的广告。 11.不要将广告放置在成人站点，违反法律的站点或有版权问题（如MP3下载）的站点等。 12.访问你自己的网站不会使帐号被封停，但不要点击任何广告。 13.不断的刷新自己的网页可能使你的帐号被封停。（译注：这将影响展示次数和点击率） 14.不要欺骗Google AdSense，Google的经验永远比你多。 15.对条款有疑问时主动联系Google，他们会很快答复你。 16.同一页面不要放置过多广告。 17.可以通过 cwire.org 寻找高价关键字，但请注意，竞争者会很多。 18.通过 Overture 的关键字分析工具寻找合适的关键字（译注：Google AdWords和Google Trends也有类似功能。） 19.考虑加入Google AdWords并小额投放广告，这将有助于你理解Adsense的运作机制。 20.将你的目标关键字放置在网页标题中。（译注：在网页文件名和目录上体现更佳） 21.在正文中重复你的关键字。（译注：不要超过5%，最好为3%） 22.学习HTML。 23.在关键字上使用粗体标签如、等。 24.域名中尽量包含目标关键字。 25.将你的站点提交到知名网页目录系统，如dmoz.org, Yahoo目录等。 26.将你的站点提交到各个搜索引擎。 27.使用Google Sitemap。 28.不要仅面向Google优化网页，还有很多搜索引擎。 29.软广告（枪稿）是最好的SEO方法，在文章作者信息中包含你的网页链接，然后投稿到知名网站。 30.不要使用恶意手段留下用户，如间谍软件，浏览器劫持等方法，这将可以能使你的帐号被封停。 31.新访客比经常浏览你网站的人更容易点击广告。
