I was click Bombed! Thousands of clicks, same ip

What adsense pays sucks!

 

I took my adsense off the site. I will wait five days, and see if I get banned now. I have proof of every click being blocked.

 

Let us know if you will get banned or not.

 

Don't wait for trouble. Try adsense alternatives such as AdBrite, BidVertiser and Clicksor today.

 

Ban that IP and IP range. temporary remove adsense from your site and mail Adsense team about this.

 

How much money did you earn from all these clicks?

 

I would like to know, how one can ban particular IP? Is that the feature Adlogger provides?

 

If you have cPanel go on IP Deny Manager.

edit: If you meant how can one ban a IP with adlogger, then yes, adlogger has this feature.

 

Thanks man. Good to know.

FYI...
Recently read someware that the new version of adlogger took care of "not counting" the hover effect as a click.

 

Where where where? I will check for that right now. Thanks.

Well I had adlogger installed when I got click bombed, so I guess this is a test whether adlogger works or not. Because I set a maximum of 3 clicks allowed every 24 hours

 

Who would have thought that having ads in your site would be this hard. How sad.

 

There are two possible cases:
Many people uses the same IP. Many ISP uses proxy.

Is your account new? A friend of mine told google about this. He didn't get his first check. He was banned. If you haven't gotten your check, just block the IP and move on.

 

Qatar is a country, not a city. If you remember the ( failed ) trade talks last summer in Doha, that would be the capitol city of Qatar.




Neither of these are mine, as I've never been to the continent.

 

I just don't understand one thing.

Why the hell Google doesn't write an intelligent algorithm which detects if a person/IP is trying to do massive clicks for no reason.

I am not a programming or AI expert, but a dumb in this field can tell that X number of clicks in X seconds means something fishy. And can ban those IPs from entire network and simply do not show them ads.

Other than that, Google should be able to calculate data historically and must be able to predict the number of clicks per 30 secs for any website .. and in case that number increases abruptly, some red flag should set and a more sensitive algorithm should come in between to find out if the goddamn clicks are legit or not.

But you know, they are @#$% lazy .. too lazy. Its easier to push 'Ban' button than to think and work on such algorithm.

I know they won't mend themselves unless YPN and MSN come into the reach of international publisher.


PS: Hey, I am not banned from AdSense .. lol

 

That's correct. But by the time Google realizes that it would be too late already. YPN + adCentral will have taken over the world already.

 

Yes I agree with Trapped if you installed adlogger and you yourself hover over the ads adlogger will count your hoverover as a click…

 

I really suggest you contact google ASAP as they are usually pretty good with this but be warned...

Many have had their accounts banned over this type of stuff... anyways Good Luck

You can ban IP from cPanel or .htaccess
