    Why not tell us how you do this?

    BTW

    Your blog listed in your profile is pulling PSA's here in Canada anyway, did something happen or did you want it that way?

    Cheers!

    Nothing to worry about specially when you don't have much traffic.

    Firstly.... high CTR is OFTEN the case for low visitor numbers. I have a page with its own chanel and that gets over 100% CTR every day. That is usually because it only gets about 2 or 3 visitors each day. The other pages on the same site get far higher visitor numbers (200+) and have more normal CTRs in the 5% bracket.

    The only time you ned to worry is if you get high visitor numbers and high CTR i.e. if you get 1000 visitors and 500 clicks then they might look at you. Even if they "look" and there is nothing wrong then all should still be fine.

    It is important to remember that Google WANTS clicks - so long as they are legitimate there should be little to worry about.

    Secondly......... I have asked my Google Rep (I have been with them since the day adsense was launched) about the guys claims that he can check your site for flagging. His reply was along the following lines (not verbatum as they do NOT like people publishing their emails)............

    "............ there is NO way that ANYONE can access Googles information as to whether an account is flagged. The only way anyone could know would be if they actually worked in the relevent department at G and if that is the case he will not be working there long if he is giving this information away".


    It IS possible to check a site to see if it has already been banned by using the Adsense Preview Tool and looking for the error message e:-2146697208 but that is historical i.e. the site has ALREADY been banned from carrying Adsense ads.

    Rouier - if my Google rep is wrong and you CAN check this perhaps you should show us HOW. Otherwise I think we should assume we are being strung a line on this particular matter
