Ask HN: Adwords account banned for seemingly no reason what should I do?

I really have never used adwords seriously before and this time I set up a small landing page for a k8s dev tool I wanted to see if anyone had interest in, wrote the copy myself and set up a modest daily budget on Friday, today I woke up to the account being completely suspended for circumventing systems, which seems to be the highest tier violation, and for the life of me I'm not really sure why.

The landing page is https://www.kubelord.com and I can't see anything wrong with it so I'm just generally confused.



Try a different publisher/ad network, like Twitter, Reddit, or Facebook/Instagram. If you don’t already have data that indicates Adwords is particularly cost-effective, it probably isn’t, and troubleshooting isn’t worth the time right now. Test with whichever publisher makes it easy and convenient.


Yeah that's fair, I just don't want this to potentially affect my general google account since I made the campaign from my personal e-mail. I'm more concerned about any potential implications from that than the advertising for what is really a project in the validation stage.
