Google’s New Ad Policy Update: What You Need to Know to Avoid Suspension
Google just tightened the reins on advertisers—again.
If you run Google Ads, manage apps, or work with third parties, now is not the time to take risks. A single mistake could get your account suspended instantly.
So, what’s changing? Let’s break down Google’s new ad policy violations, what they mean for you, and—most importantly—how to stay compliant.
New Violations That Could Get You Banned
Google has always enforced advertising rules, but now they’re taking zero tolerance to a new level.
• Instant suspensions for serious violations – No more three-strikes system for major offenses.
• Repeated minor violations – If you keep breaking the rules, even on small issues, Google may remove your account.
What Happens If You Violate These Policies?
Depending on the severity, you could face:
- Warnings – For minor violations, you might get a chance to fix the issue.
- Temporary Account Suspensions – Your ads will stop running until the issue is resolved.
- Permanent Ban – Google may completely disable your account with no chance of appeal
How to Stay Compliant and Avoid Suspension
Google isn’t playing around—but if you follow the rules, you won’t have to worry. Here’s how to stay on the safe side:
- Audit Your Ads – Make sure every ad follows Google’s policies.
- Monitor Your Traffic – Avoid shady tactics like fake clicks or bot traffic.
- Choose Trusted Partners – If you work with agencies, make sure they follow Google’s compliance rules.
