Adsense users - so you click adsense ads on other sites?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by webarama, Oct 2, 2006.

    I have been wondering....if you use adsense on your own site, are you more likely to click an adsense ad on another site? (ie not one you have any involvement with)

    Silly question I guess, but I wonder what people think.

    Call me superstitious, paranoid, or what ever, but I click on nothing.
    Even if I am interested I enter the web address manually.

    I usualy never click on adsense ads, however, when i see my wife surf, she clicks on them like crazy (she does not notice that it:s ads and is intressted in the content). Think the more involved you are with adsense, the less you click

    I love to click the MFA sites ad appearing in the AdSense of other people. Although they (MFA site owners) won't lose any big bucks since they pay only 0.01 per click, clicking their ads has become my habit. Oh ya, I've a strong interest to check out the MFA sites in the AdSense ads.

    Could be dangerous to do if she clicks on your own ads?

    Yeah, I try no to unless i am willing to buy. I know what it is like being an adwords publisher and getting a huge amount of click with no sales..

    Oh yes, if I do click I make sure as hell its not my site...;-0

    Very seldom. Click only if the stuff is providing relevant info. If the site has not used proper filter - most of them don't, info is not relevant.

    I click whenever it´s interesting.

    So if the website it´s just another scam it will pay for my loss of time.

    Hate websites where EVERYTHING it´s ABSOLUTELLY free (except for what you have to pay)
