Instead they simply disable the accounts of innocent publishers. Is there anyway that you could alert webmasters as this happens.With hope that you'd answer my query,Sreejesh, Dear Matt,

Why Google doesn’t bother to alert Adsense publishers when their ads are clickbombed? Instead they simply disable the accounts of innocent publishers. Is there anyway that you could alert webmasters as this happens.

With hope that you’d answer my query,

Sreejesh,

A case of you don't like it when a site owner tells you a truth. Your "posse" falsely blacklisted our site and then when we protested, they reversed that but only after you had caused us commercial damage.So again my question "who appointed you ?" ... and what happened to "when I make a mistake, I apologise ?"

So again my question “who appointed you ?” … and what happened to “when I make a mistake, I apologise ?”

I received a note from the "Google Search Quality Team" this afternoon and I initially thought that the email itself was spam. However, after researching the facts, I did indeed find that an unknown entity had set up shop on my domain and spoof Western Union, and had even captured details for one unsuspecting user already.Kudos to you and your team! My only suggestion is that you come up with a forensics tool that backtracks the initial incident and zings the perpetrator. But perhaps that is a pipe-dream.Thanks again, Great service!

Most owners have their sites drop and it kills them and they don't know why. The more communication for well intentioned non-Viagra-pushing websites out there just trying to do good business - the better. Definitely alert site owners.

Having a goal to weed out bad SEO practices is great, but wow, very time consuming. Now if there was any way you could identify the SEO company that caused the infraction and then find all the websites they are running SEO packages for that would definately help cut down the time.

Everybody is assured that we are given a fair play in the rankings of Google SERPs. It will reduce the number of people using or applying black hat strategies in search engine optimization.
