No long ago I open another web site with a friend and we got a AS account for our new venture. Unfortunately my friend went crazy and click on our on site. After just 3 days AS cancel our account.
I try CJ and other commission programs, but in more than a month our revenue is $0.
My question:
Should I use an special channel from my personal AS account to display ads in my new site (the one I open with my friend)?
Would using ads from my personal AS account ads in a cancel site will jeopardize my account?
Thanks!
If you are with Adsense for over 3 years, you really know all the ins and outs. You know how the system works and you know the risks. You also know you have to be extremely careful with telling people about what you do for a living.
So how on earth is it possible, after everything you have learned, that you pick someone to do business with who starts clicking ads right away? I personally would have to do some real intensive research to find a fool like that among my friends.
You might become guilty by association.

Just to be fair, He doesn't know anything about web sites or know how the ad system works. I'm the one with the web site experience. He was the one with the unique content, that can make a web site successful.

Face up to reality. If that site couldn't generate a single physical sale through CJ.com, either the traffic is lousy or the quality of the traffic is lousy. It's not worth it.
If you value the content on the site, set it up under A NEW domain name so it is not tainted. If the content was written by your friend, offer to pay him a one-time fee for it but do NOT risk your AdSense account by taking him on as a partner.
It doesn't matter whether he was new to AdSense or not. The moment he started clicking away, he had to know that the money was coming from advertisers with mouths to feed as well. You made a mistake by siding with someone that is ethically bankrupt and got lucky that Google didn't toss you out too (and if you had access to log into both accounts -- and did from the same computer, be careful as you may still not have gotten away). Don't make the same mistake twice, especially if you have already left your regular job for this.

Perhaps this case has made you eager to produce some unique content yourself on a completely new website. Maybe your web site experience itself can be translated into quality content? If so, you can become your own businesspartner. Best of luck.
