    Hello
    For around 2 days I got around 102% CTR one one of my site, it's a flash game arcade site, now the CTR is at around 80%. I've just used the submission services of ineedhits.com for my site and submitted few links/stories to digg.com, and recently the CTR has increased, i can't find anything bad in the logs either. What do you suggest? Do i need to take any actions?

    Please guide.

    How much traffic do you get? If its substantial, I would be very suspicious, indeed.

    102% CTR is abnormally high.

    Install adlogger, contact google and tell them you detected a high number of clicks and are taking preventive measures to try and prevent this from continuing

    well someone is surely clicking your ads. Inform google about this. Allso take a look to the ips from your statistics. I see you dont have any much traffic so you could see the ip that makes you problems.

    For someone like you with 5000+ posts I expected a more intelligent answer.
    There is most definitely something fishy going on with that web site and it sure doesn't deserve the word "awesome".

    This is not awesome at all, as he already said he received an email from google informing him that he is breaking TOS. Unless he stop pushing his sites trough all this maked traffic ( ineedhits ) he will surely get banned from adsense.

    Really? I must have missed the part where he said he got an email from adsense. You must point it out to me.

    I'm with Richie on this one ;)
