Adsense: Site is at imminent risk of restricted ad serving

ubaso1973

I got the following automated message from Adsense, and I am not sure what the issue is:

Site is at imminent risk of restricted ad serving

Dear Partner,

For multiple days recently, we’ve found a high volume of restrictions on your site (yohaig.ng), which is not in compliance with the AdSense programme policies. This puts it at imminent risk of a site level action that would restrict all ad serving on this site (yohaig.ng).

You need to address existing issues and ensure that any new monetised content is compliant with the AdSense programme policies. In the Policy Centre you can see which pages are triggering issues and how to fix them.

Policy issues (policy violations or restrictions) may be triggered by any content on your page including content that you or third parties have provided, user posted content, other advertisements and links to other sites or apps.

For more information on addressing these issues, read Fix policy issues that affect ad serving and User-generated content overview.

Yours sincerely,
The Google AdSense Team

JeanPierre

ubaso1973 I understand that you received an automated message from AdSense stating that your site (yohaig.ng) is at imminent risk of restricted ad serving. The message mentions that there have been multiple days of restrictions on your site, which is not in compliance with the AdSense program policies. I can help clarify the issue for you.

It seems that there are policy issues on your site that are triggering restrictions on ad serving. These policy issues can be caused by various factors, including content on your page, user-generated content, other advertisements, and links to other sites or apps.

To address these issues, I recommend visiting the Policy Centre in your AdSense account. There, you can see which pages are triggering the issues and find guidance on how to fix them. It's important to ensure that both existing and new monetized content on your site complies with the AdSense program policies.

For more information on addressing policy issues and understanding user-generated content, I suggest reading the following articles:

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi JeanPierre - Thanks for your prompt response.

The Policy Centre in my Adsense account says "No Current Issues".

I have looked, and the only thing I can think of is that I have some sports betting/gambling content.

I have sports betting adverts, which are now restricted to the gambling/sports betting category.

Could this be the issue?

I have added the category pages in the "Disable Ads By Page" section of Ezoic.

Please view the attached files - did I do it right?

Thanks

ubaso1973 Can you check in your Adsense dashboard under Account if you have granted 3rd party access for Ezoic? We can't seem to access your Adsense dashboard from the information that was given when your account was linked with us.

Hi APerez

There is no third-party access.

I have attached some screenshots.

Thanks

ubaso1973 Given that no pages are listed in your Policy Centre, I'm inclined to say that this is an error on Google's part and that you have nothing to be concerned about. However, to make sure that everything's okay; I have asked our Platform Quality team to take a look and just make sure that you have nothing to be concerned about.

I'll let you know once I hear back from them. 🙂

ubaso1973

Ok, Thanks

What about the no third-party access issue?

ubaso1973 Looks like your link has been removed, can you please accept this Adsense invite for me? https://www.google.com/adsense/partner_invite?manager-pid=pub-1966721192709606&token=AJXZbyIqOFVzucbKaWpl86JnP8tv2pSwdO8PC6x5Ey9nvm49nlI9i8M%3D

Thanks, Monica.

3rd party access has been granted.

ubaso1973 Mediation has now been fully linked, I'll let you know once I have more news regarding the policy issues.

Do I need the Adsense code on my site, as I am connected through Ezoic?

Lilla

ubaso1973 No, we would actually recommend removing the AdSense code - as it will be removed by Ad Tester regardless, so getting rid of it will save on site speed. It is not necessary for AdSense Mediation to work.

I now have an issue in the Adsense Policy Center, which I have attached.

When I click on the link, it shows me this URL: https://www.yohaig.ng/wp-content/cache/wp-rocket/www.yohaig.ng/gambling/sports-betting/how-to-get-bet9ja-old-mobile/index.html_gzip instead of https://www.yohaig.ng/gambling/sports-betting/how-to-get-bet9ja-old-mobile/.

In any case, I had restricted ads from showing on those category pages, but ads still appear.

Is there something I missed?

Thanks

Sarah

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out.

I had a look at the ad restrictions rules and the URL you added starting with /category/ did not match the actual URL flagged by Adsense.

I have corrected this for you now and ads will now get disabled for those categories.

Let us know if there are any further questions.

I got another email today, but the Policy Center is empty.

I have attached it to this message.

Thanks

Lilla

ubaso1973 As with before, if there is nothing listed in your Policy Centre - then you can ignore this message. It doesn't make sense that they are telling you to address policy issues in your dashboard, that don't exist. For more clarity on this, I would recommend reaching out to Google directly, as they may be able to assist further on this.
