Google adsense is the hub for monetizing your website, because it is one of those online advertisement program which never run out of advertisement.
Though Google adsense is very strict about the policies and as I mentioned on my previous post of why I removed Global translator plugin to save my self from getting banned from Google adsense.
These are the simple mistakes you and adsense publisher should avoid to get themselves banned :
1. Clicking on own advertisement : Thumb rule, no matter what never click on your google adsense adverts.
2. Using adsense on unsupported language blog : At the time of writing, Google doesn’t support all the languages to qualify for adsense program. If you have approved adsense account and you are using it to show it on the blog whose language don’t qualify adsense TOS, then make changes asap.
Here is the list of adsense supported language.
3. Maximum adsense unit on a single page : Adsense work on simple rule of 1-2-3 to define the maximum number of ad unit on a single page. You can refer to previous post for more info : Maximum number of adsense unit on a single page.
4. Never ask or encourage your reader to click on ads : Promoting visitors to click on advertisement is against the Google TOS.
5 . Sending ads on Email : Many publisher started the trend of sending adsense adverts within email, and sometime it goes viral. Google find it against the program policies.
6. Advertisement label : Many publisher started using trick like click here, Click to see hot babe, and this also helped to encourage click. Encourage click? Oh time to look at point 4.
7. Competitive contextual advertisement : Make sure you don’t use any other contextual advertisement program. Let Google adsense by your only and favorite advertisement program
8. Altering the adsense code : So you are a programmer? huh! doesn’t matter. Changing your adsense code in any ways is not permitted by Google.
9. Multiple adsense account from single IP : Google highly discourage this, and many people are facing issues like banning and stop payment issues because of this.
10. Shading with Image : Placing Google adsense Image ad unit with adjacent image can be a great and smart move, but guess what? Do it and Google adsense will love to ban you. Google TOS doesn’t allow use of shading your adsense image ads with adjacent image.

Well that was a nice reminder for many of us.
I feel adsense having strict TOS and conditions still is one of the best advertisement companies on net. Just 3 reasons- they pay you on time, have a decent offer, and shows ads according to sites content.
Though if you look at the adsense help center , you might find a long list of unsatisfied adsense users.
What I like about adsense is , it never let me run out of advertisement
You are quite right. many people are unsatisfied with it. But look at the top advertising programs paying you equally or above adsense, they have a simple cutoff traffic at around 25000 a month or similar, which exactly is not possible for a new site or site focusing on smaller niches. thats when adsense works out good.
I have seen many blog owners using different languages for translation that are not supported by adsense, then what about them?. I think ads will not appear when that language is not supported by adsense. What do you say?

Welcome to shoutmeloud
Avoid merging ads with the Drop down components !!
Nice write up, but I think that your point 9 is not right. In fact there are adsense management companies out there who use like 100 accounts from single IP.
Spellathon The point 9 is based on various complaint in adsense forum where users accounts are banned because multiple adsense account has been accessed by same IP.
Thanks for the tips!!
People have to follow all these steps to avoid getting banned from google!!
Nice Tips specially tip no. 7
aacrepairbible@gmail.com- Does anyone know if you can run Kontera text ads while running Google ads on your website. I am asking because I do not want to get banned again. Please email me the answer and (I do not have a web business) and any name of someone who has been banned so I can send them the procedure for getting back on Google a lot faster than applying with Google.
7. Competitive contextual advertisement : Make sure you don™t use any other contextual advertisement program. Let Google adsense by your only and favorite advertisement program
