Google adsense is best contextual advertisement program for bloggers. Once you have approved adsense account, it will keep giving you recurring income.
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 : This is the first mistake which every Adsense publisher make. They click on their own adsense ads to make money but this is the first step to ban your Adsense ID.
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.
@ Hari
placing ads deliberately on the pages which adsense is not supported is the violation of Google adsense policy.

Nice tips . Do you think that we can really earn much from infolinks…
Sudeep depending upon your traffic, Infolinks is a nice way to earn.. At this moment I’m making more than $300/mo from Infolinks alone.
I think you should update this article with another tip. Now a days Google is refusing Adsense accounts for website’s saying that “Your website has inappropriate content.”. I am not sure what does this means.
i place ads below a image,,,,,does that violate policy no 10,,m a bit confused,
