How to Fix Compensated Sexual Acts Policy Violation? - Google Ads

[blackandcoolhat]

Hi everyone,

I have a website that offers something blackhat, but it appeared fine to Google bots because it was conveying all the necessary information through photos, which didn’t contain any text or anything suspicious. Yes, I have to admit that these were photos of attractive women, but like I said, there wasn’t any text or anything incriminating. All of them were sourced from public Instagram accounts.

I was able to fix the “Moderately Restricted” and “Strongly Restricted” issues, but now I’m struggling to resolve the “Compensated Sexual Acts” issue.

• I’ve added all the potential violator keywords as negatives.
• I’ve replaced all the photos with more conventional ones.

I’m not sure what else I can do to fix it. What would you suggest to resolve this issue and avoid it in the future?
Thanks in advance for your advice!

Are there AI generated images of people/girls on your site? I have a theory that this also flags sexual disapprovals from experience. Had something similar before, didnt even have compromising photos but got flagged

Thank you for your comment. There is 20 different image on the website. I'm sure that 17-18 ones of them are not made by AI at least. Not completely sure for the others but I don't think they are made by AI either.

Also, I think recently (may 2024) Google brought a complete ban on anything related to sexual content or suggestive, so maybe that? Even using others images may be problematic.

Reach out to Google support and offer compensation VIA sexual acts in exchange for the suspension to be lifted. That's what they really want, the dirty dogs.

Thank you for your reply. I'll be trying a new thing to fix it tomorrow and I'll let everyone know if that works.

I hope you're having fun. Thanks for the bump anyway.

Hello, have you tried contacting Google live support?

What's the latest situation?

And please read the full policies on nudity here, is there anything that doesn't match?

Hi,

I’ve edited everything on the website that I think could be causing trouble for this matter, but my appeals are still being rejected. Eventually, I sent an email to the support team yesterday and have been waiting for a reply.

The website directs visitors to 20 massage and spa professionals. Each of them has a photo and a ‘wa.me/phonenumber’ link. They’re not actual massage and spa professionals, to be honest, but there is no evidence of that. Their photos just show some attractive women. I always replace these photos with more ordinary ones before sending an appeal.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Google updated its AI detection system around the end of July/the beginning of August, enabling it to mark entire domains as suspicious or likely to breach specific policies. Imagine a score from 0 to 100 that represents both the likelihood of breaking a policy and the necessity for a manual review to determine whether to remove a penalty for policy X, depending on the severity of the breach.

For example, let's assume 'Compensated Sexual Acts' falls in the 80-100 range. If you receive a strike for it even once, the system will not view your domain or business favorably, regardless of any subsequent changes you make to text or images.

If you are facing issues with the Compensated Sexual Acts policy on a particular domain, consider creating a different advertisement for a separate product or service using that same domain.

However, be aware that if this new ad is flagged for similar reasons automatically or within 2-3 days, the domain may be blacklisted, and you will need a new domain.

This has been my experience over the past month and a half while navigating various policies for which I had to find workarounds, but you get the idea.

How you fixed that?

How you fixed that?

I was suspicious about a few words in the text part of my website. At the beginning, I thought it wasn't a big deal but the truth is, it was. They sounded sexual. I changed them with the ones that sound more professional. I did the same thing about the photos.

After that, I created a support case and one business day later, I got a reply which says "Your ads got approved". According what he said, he sent an internal appeal to the relevant team and they removed the flag on my account.

I hope this helps.
