AdsenseDeluxe Could Get You Banned From Adsense

Posted by Paul B | October 26, 2007 .

If that all sounds a bit dramatic then I’m sorry but it’s true. If you are running the AdsenseDeluxe plugin for WordPress then there is a chance you could get booted from Adsense.

It’s a problem I noticed on my Blog a few weeks ago, I spent a couple of days double checking things but in the end I found it was an actual problem with the plugin. According to Adsense rules you should only inlcude three Adsense for content blocks on any 1 page, however the AdsenseDeluxe plugin that is supposed to monitor this doesn’t always work. On my Blog it was creating 4 Adsense blogs, on some other blogs I’ve seen recently it’s doing 5 (Angel for example). Whilst Adsense doesn’t show the ads the code is there in the source and that’s enough for Adsense to boot you.

Once you know about it it’s a fairly easy fix, you just need to edit the plugin source code and set a new ad block limit. If you’re running AdsenseDeluxe then I’d suggest you check your pages just to make sure.

    This whole thing has confused me because I wasn’t using a plugin, but I noticed that the same thing happened on another blog that decided to try and display five blocks. I was using a bit of code that was working fine up until a point (I’m not sure when). After that, it started showing five spaces, and not the three I had coded. I don’t really know what happened.
