Compromised sites in Google Ads
Compromised and circumventing sites are major issues in Google Ads. Compromised sites contain harmful content or redirects, while circumventing sites use tricks like cloaking or bypassing policies, which can lead to account suspensions.
FAQ
Why might my Framer site be flagged as compromised or suspended in Google Ads?
Common reasons include cloaking (showing different content to users than to Google’s review system), repeated policy violations (continuously submitting ads that violate Google’s policies), and misleading content (creating ads or using techniques intended to deceive users or Google's systems). Additionally, issues like having links that redirect to http:// pages, embedding scripts from unreliable third-party tools, or your site being flagged for harmful content can also cause problems.
How can I fix a disapproved ad or asset in Google Ads for my Framer site?
Go to the Ads page under Campaigns or the Assets page under Assets to find the ad or asset you want to fix. In the Status column, look for 'Disapproved' or 'Eligible (limited).' Hover over the status to see policy violation details, then click 'Read the policy' to learn more about resolving the issue. Use the pencil icon to edit your ad, make the necessary changes to comply with the policy, and click Save. If these steps don’t help, contact Google support directly from the Google Ads dashboard.
What steps can I take to prevent my Framer site from being flagged or disapproved by Google Ads?
Register a custom domain instead of using a free Framer domain, ensure you have a custom 404 page, avoid links that redirect to http:// pages or prohibited sites, scan your website with tools like VirusTotal, and do not use scripts from unreliable third-party tools. If you migrated from another platform, set up redirects for old URLs. Improve ad quality by using relevant keywords and aligning ad titles and descriptions with your website content. Also, check Google Search Console for blocklisting reports.
