How Are Affiliates Avoiding GSB Issues on Landing Pages After Google’s Latest Update?

Hey guys

Since Google's latest update, traffic sources like Adsterra and PropellerAds have become extremely strict regarding Google Safe Browsing (GSB) flags. Even a single flagged URL in a low-volume campaign can result in an account suspension for several days—or even a permanent ban.


I absolutely want to avoid this at all costs. While I can develop a solution using AI tools, I'm curious to know what other affiliates are using to mitigate this risk.


We have to consider that it's not just landing page domains that can get flagged; in rare cases, even tracking domains or back-button redirect domains can trigger issues. PropellerAds has already warned me that another GSB flag could lead to a permanent ban, so I need a rock-solid solution.


From my research, one potential approach is to use a script that checks domains at regular intervals (e.g., every few minutes) via the Google Safe Browsing API and auto change the domain to a backup one if the main one is flagged. My question is:


  • What’s the optimal frequency for these checks? Would every 5 minutes be enough, or should it be more frequent?
  • Are there any existing tools or scripts that handle this
