New Adwords Campaign Daily Budget Limit? (8)
I've been out of the Adwords world for a bit but want to bring a real site on the network... but I want to stay as under the radar as possible... I don't necessarily want to speak to a Google rep... ever 
I have the feeling if I set the campaign daily limit to $10,000 a day I'm going to set off alarms, send the account into review and then will have to go through a rep...
Anyone have any insight as to a budget that keeps you off the radar? $100/day, $500/day, $1500/day?
Curious if anyone actively using Adwords can share some insight. Thanks.
If you're promoting rebills, coreg, or anything that sounds "fishy" along the lines, you must have a cloaker to run those shit under the radar. Polarbacon's cloaker is really top-notch for that if you're using the advanced startegy such as the "include method".
But if you're going to promote legitimate stuff like Gaming, Cost Per Sales, Physical products as an affiliate, Google is 100% okay with that without any problem, you just need to abide to their rules, most importantly is the "Site Policy", totally no "bridge page" is allowed on Adwords now if you're not gonna cloak. Unless you're super well-established brand like McDonald, they can put whatever shit on their landing page. That's life.... lol
I wrote a post last time regarding running affiliate offers on Adwords as below:
Almost 90% of the time your ads will be disapproved due to the "Site Policy" thingy. Whenever you want to collect some sensitive information from an individual, you need to put an SSL certificate with your domain ( https:// ). I've put in quite a lot of effort building a considerable good Wordpress blog + landing page + email optin to try Adwords, but it got disapproved. The fact is Adwords support is really top-notch, they're very specific to your problems and really told me what my problem is down to the T. Read the site policy editorial guideline and it's clear that you need to install an SSL certificate with your domain if you're going to use the "opt-in" approach.
Refer to the official Google Adwords article here:

One important thing here is do not trust any other bull-shit myth at all as Google Adwords doesn't like Affiliate Marketing, I treat it as a complete bullshit as Google itself even has one of the strongest affiliate networks built on its own ------> Google Affiliate Network
Does it make any sense at all as Google name the platform as "Google Affiliate Network" if they really do hate affiliate marketers? All they hate is deceptive marketing and those lazy affiliate wannabes that think affiliate marketing can lead them to success overnight and simply spam ridiculous spammy offers there and ended up with a ban with Adwords, guess what? It follows by a bull-shit RANT as so-called GOOGLE ADWORDS doesn't like you affiliate!
I think everyone of us must think this properly and thoroughly as how to define yourself as an affiliate, there are many affiliates promoting helpful and legitimate stuff in order to make a long-term profits with some solid model, think of promoting some physical product, electronic products? Books? MMORPG games? The list goes on and on.
Hope this helps a little on the Adwords side of things.

Remember that the compliance dept. is different to the rep dept., contact from reps is usually along the lines of 'we can help you spend more, tell us what your goal is and we'll go in and modify [ruin] your campaigns'. Just ignore these emails.
Fwiw many years ago I had a rep assigned to me at roughly $800/day spend. We didn't speak at all, I only used him to extend my credit.
Ok so my first site was just suspended due to being a 'Bridge Page' which I can admit... it totally was.
It was a review site with 3 products on it that I put up to see if the ads would even get approved, surprisingly traffic began and I left it running at $100/day while I started having some content created. (articles/reviews/etc).
Unfortunately they manually reviewed it before I was able to build it out.
So I'm going to request a re-review or submit a brand new site that is fully built out. My question is what does the site need to have? This is a review site for multiple products. There are currently several review sites online in this niche and I'm going to assume all I need to do is include what content they've included and I'm safe.
Reviews
Articles
Ratings
Blog posts
and all other required pages (contact, sitemap, etc)
but I'm curious if there are any other rules I should know about, like disclaimers, outgoing links, number of products reviewed, etc.
Any insider advice?
no claims (in the broadest and most abstract way), no fake testimonials, lots of disclaimers, clear contact us, no diet pills no wonder wrinkle creams, but in general i'd pass on a review site, especially in diet or skin verticals.
