Ads serving limit

[Free Bird]

Hi, My name is Deepak. I worked for 6 months on my app. All i did for 6 months is just " Wake up -> code -> sleep". i worked so hard. And when i finally published my app on google play, it was growing day by day. as of 4nd june 2022 my app is getting 3000+ downloads per day from playstore just by organic search. I am not even advertising my app anywhere. all the downloads come from google play store.

After implementing admob, for the first week it was amazing. Ads were showing and there were no problems.Then is received an email from admob that they have put ad serving limit on my account. And the reason they gave was "invalid traffic concerns".

I followed every single rule :

* Not clicking on your own ads.

* Always use test ads.

* Followed Best practices for Interstitial, Banner, native ads and I also show an ad loading dialog for interstitial ads before 1 sec so that user doesn't click on ads by mistake.

* Check where are your users comming from (99% from play store and rest from Google and app sharing).

I played by the rules and yet Admob treats me like garbage.

My app has 5000+ Daily Active User as of 4nd june 2022 And 2500+ new downloads every day.And average user engagement time is 19 minutes. My app has potential to make $150+ every day and yet i make $1-$5 every day. Is it fair?

I can't even pay my rent, forget everything else.

This is 47th day since ad serving limit started and yet admob failed to identify if my app has Valid Traffic or invalid traffic.

If anyone from admob or adsense reading this then please make up your mind. If you find my app has invalid traffic then just disable my admob account so that i can just move on and explore other options.

Seeing this ad limit every day breaks me. This is just tourcher, so please make up your mind. I am as a publisher is frustrated, i can't take this anymore.

And about admob support, there is no such thing as support. Whenever i try to contact admob support through email it always says "something went wrong. please try again".

I understand that there are people who would do anything to make money like: self clicking, paying some third party to watch ads and so on. And i believe that admob should take stronge action against them. 

This is just a suggestion that admob should put minimum requirements before it shows ads in any app. like minimum downloads, DAU etc.

If admob team is reading this then please review my app, my admob account. whatever you need to do. Please hurry up. Because there are hard working people just like me who are suffering because of this.And We are at your mercy.

This restricts ads. There is one solution. You have to delete all ad codes and wait 10 days. The restriction will be removed, but do not run ads at the same time. Wait for the total time of at least 25 days after deleting the ad codes.

Hi Deepak,

Thanks for reaching out to the Mobile Ads SDK forum.

I understand that your app started with “ad serving limit”, and failed to identify if your app has valid traffic or invalid traffic. Note that Ad serving on your account is currently limited because of invalid traffic concerns. What you can do is Learn more about limited ad serving. You may also check the Policy center in your AdMob account for details about the enforcements and how to fix them. You may double check that you don’t have any policy violation on your app which is Restricting ad serving. With that being said, kindly fix that as that is one of the possible reasons why you are not getting ads on your app itself.  If you find, then you will need to fix the issue in the policy center.

This Forum can only assist implementing the Mobile Ads SDK into apps. I would suggest you reach out to our Product Support team instead as this is more of an ad serving issue which is out of scope to our team. The product specialist there should be able to assist you further on this.

If you are unable to reach out to the product support team, please try the below email option:

- Navigate to https://support.google.com/admob/gethelp?issue_description=contact+us

- In the first prompt click `Other` and `Next step`

- In the second prompt click `Next step`

- The email option should be available

Also, thank you @عز جيمنج for providing your inputs on Deepak's concern here.
