What can I do if my ad gets disapproved?

Disapproval reason
What does it mean?
What do I do now?
Unacceptable animation length
Your ad's animation length is more than 30 seconds.
Ensure that your ad's animation length is 30 seconds or less.
Incorrect image layout
Your ad's layout is unconventional or is expanding beyond the frame.
Ensure that your ad takes up the entire space of the chosen image size. The ad shouldn't appear sideways or upside down, and shouldn't appear like it's more than one ad. Also, check that your ad doesn't expand beyond the frame or otherwise encroach on the website.
Unacceptable image content
Your ad's behavior is tricking users to click on your ad.
Ensure that your ad doesn't contain gimmicks that would trick a user into clicking the ad.
Poor image/video quality
Your ad is unclear or unrecognizable.
Remove all unclear, blurry, or unrecognizable images from your ad.
Unacceptable image/video content
Your ad contains content that's not considered family safe.
Edit your ad by removing any adult or non-family safe content.
What happens if I violate this policy?
- Ad disapproval: Ads that don't follow this policy may get disapproved. A disapproved ad won't be able to run until the policy violation is fixed and the ad is approved.
- Domain disabling: We may suspend websites that violate this policy, meaning that the website can no longer be advertised with Google Ads until the problem is fixed.
- Account suspension: An account may get suspended if you have several violations or a serious violation. If this happens, all ads in the suspended account will stop running, and we may no longer accept advertising from you. Any related accounts may also get permanently suspended and your new accounts may get automatically suspended at setup.

If your ad gets disapproved, you can resubmit it for review by simply editing your ad and then saving it. To avoid getting disapproved again, make sure that your ad complies with our policies before saving your ad.
