Where are my Google ads ?
Did you notice something unusual in this blog? I hope not. Let me tell you. Where are my Google ads? What happened to it all of a sudden? Yes, Google is giving me headache for the past few days. Well, I had to remove Google ads just few days back. Reason - Instead of regular Google ads, public service ads were being displayed. Now, if it would have been for a day or two then its ok. But same ads continuously for past 2 weeks. Yes, the public service ads were being displayed continuously for past 2 weeks. I am not against those ads but then I was fed up of the same. Now, it is quite normal for anyone of you to believe that I may have been banned by Google for any violation of their rules. To be honest, its not the violation of rules that has led to such strange problem. The real reason why it has happened all of a sudden - Because I haven't verified my adsense account. I am not saying that. It is a message from Google which is quite amusing. It goes like this - Your pages are displaying Public Service Advertisements (PSAs) because you haven't yet verified your PIN and/or phone number.
Let me tell you, Google was displaying normal Adsense ads on my blog for the past 2 years and now all of a sudden I am being said that I haven't verified my adsense account. What rubbish!! And when I tried to find solution to this problem, I was left with nothing but frustration. Don't know if its the same case with you people or not but then as per Google, I have to verify a Pin Code which Google is likely to send to me very soon. Now, I've been waiting for that Pin Code for such a long time. And still, I haven't received it. Well, as per Google Adsense, there are two verification methods - either you can verify your account by verifying your phone number or you may go for a Pin Number. Google will send that Pin number to the address which you may have filled in your adsense account. Once you have received that Pin then you can login to adsense account, enter that Pin Code where its being asked for and voila..Your adsense account is verified!! This is what I know about Pin Code verification. May look quite easy but it hasn't been the same case with me. A much better way, I was hoping to verify my account by verifying my phone number. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any way to do it in my adsense account. Believe me, its so frustrating.
Now, have you people too been asked for your Google Adsense account verification? If yes, then don't you find this whole process of verification, complicated and time consuming? It really is in my opinion. First of all I think that Google should have made it easier to verify your account through email verification. That looks to me a better idea. The whole process would have been fast and convenient. Perhaps not more secure. And if they have stopped verification by phone number then I think they should rethink on it. Verification through phone number would also have been quite easier and fast. I am completely surprised by the way everything has happened to me. The point here is - Are you publishing ads to showcase public service ads? I hope not. Public Service Ads are to be displayed when there is nothing to be displayed related to your content. And I believe it doesn't apply to my blog. Of course not when you look at the fact that ads were displaying normally just a few days back. I am just paying the price for not getting my adsense account verified. I hope I will be able to verify my account very soon and have those ads being displayed normally once again on this blog.
But then again why did it take 2 years for Google to remind me about the adsense account verification ? Why so late ?
