    I use the counter from statcounter.com and i see that somebody clicks on the google ads but when i open my adsense account the click was not counted.

    This happen to me twice already:(

    Who can tell me why this is.

    I didn't click the ad.
    Somebody from the forum here clicked it. So how can it be a fake or invalid click?
    Maybe something wrong with the ad script.
    What are bomb clicks?

    When you say the clicks are not showing up, are you talking about the physical click count or the money/payment column?

    Probably the person was not on your site long enough - I don't think Google counts the click if the person is only on the site for a split second. They also frequently don't count multiple clicks from the same person. And if they deem the clicks to be invalid for some reason, they won't count them as well. Most everyone sees these every once in a while, and although it can be frustrating, I don't think it is something to worry about (unless you were somehow generating invalid clicks yourself). If you notice quite a few, you might want to email Google about it, however, just to be safe.

    Thanks for all answers.
    When i checked my adsense account this morning i see the clicks were counted. But it took long time to show up..
    Anyway, i got $0,10 for 2 clicks only. Thats very low..My average is around $0,40 / click.

    For those who asked how i know somebody clicked you guys can register at www.statcounter.com
    With this tool you can see all visitors on your side, where they come from and what they click and and and...
    Register for free;)

    Well that happens every now and then with me. Statcounter tracks adsense clicks but its strange that google doesnt records it.

    I think google only counts those clicks which they find legit.

    Google is the Boss, so its upto them to detect which is legit and which is not.

    it's probably because Google applies a strict rule to it's valid clicks in order to stop fraud.

    Many people click by mistake and when they realize they've clicked on adsense ads they instantly close the site before loading....I don't think Google will count such clicks.

    Always remember I visitor click on ad by mistake and before opening advertiser page he clicks on home page link or back button then you don't get paid . And such click are not counted because advertisers didn't get any benefit from it . Goggle has to think about publishes as well as advertiser so both keep coming back .

    Don't think too hard dear.
    Google is THE Boss here just be honest in what you are doing.
    They wont pay you for invalid and fraudulent clicks.

    It could be an invalid click. But I don't trust the stat counter that much.
