Is Adwords Dead for BH? (4)

Is Adwords Dead for BH?

I was averaging around $10k/day on Adwords Display from 2016 to around Feb 2017, but now I can't get a simple account to stay active. I would create around 10 accounts, only 2 or 3 would work with around $50k in spend each. Now, they all die with less than $1000 in spend. All prepaid cards seem to be shutdown for 'suspicious activity' and if that doesn't happen, I get the 'circumventing systems' message. I've appealed each account, but that doesn't work anymore.

I'm working with an account farmer, but their account went down after just $500 in spend. I don't think my cloaking was breached (or maybe it was). I'm going to try some more of their accounts in different GEOs, but I'm not really confident.

My theory is that 'wordpress'/viral news style sites are banned. I'm not after any specifics on your setup, anybody having any luck?

Adwords Accounts are not dead for BH, I guess you just need to be innovative with the websites you choose for your niche. Prepaid accounts are being just used as burner accounts and nothing more, You can not expect them to be long running accounts nowadays. Only accounts which are long running are Company based invoicing accounts.

Have you tried another card provider? The BIN might be blocked. Google is good at recognize patterns, so I would recommend to try another hoster, domain registrar, whois information and I would avoid cloudflare. That's what helped me in the past.
