Google Adsense Adsense requirements?

[Ashton]

I'm guessing your going to have your appeal refused.

Out of interest.

Why no robots txt or sitemap ? Are they in a non standard location?

And you did validate the site in webmaster tools like some of your other sites didn't you?

Robots declarations are in meta tags, site maps were submitted to google. Didnt get around to validation - I probably should have waited until sites were complete before doing this

Can you explain the bolded part please. Have you been putting adsense on automated blogs, aka some sort of scraper sites? If so it shouldn't really be a surprise you have been terminated

Automated as in I don't run them - not as in scraped content. 3 Forums, an arcade site and a music site.

Maybe off the back of this thread we/you/someone could start a guide for do's and don't on running adsense on a website? You mention the robots.txt file etc which I have no idea about and the privacy policy.

Would be good for those looking to maybe go down the google adsense route to avoid any potential easy to spot slip ups and at least try and get off on the best footing.
