I setup a proxy server for kids at my school to go to Myspace.com and Ebaumsworld.com at school. I have ads on the proxy site and I am wondering: since the school is a large network, all using the same external ip address, does that mean that soon(or maybe already) google will block that ip address as clicks? If too many clicks come from my school, then does my account get deleted? Does anyone have any experiance with this? I need a little help. -Lake Denman
If those clicks make up the majority of your overall clicks, most will not count. The bigger danger is that if you ever signed into your own AdSense account from a school computer, you may get banned yourself when you reach $100. Personally, I wouldn't put AdSense on this type of site as your chances of not getting banned over the long term are pretty slim.
I suppose you are right. I didn't even think about the logging in part! thanks a lot. I took them down already. Not in the mood of getting banned, seeing as how I really am loving adsense.
I run several proxies and you have to have your own IP that is not being used by your visitors also. They will ban you eventually as the IP is essentially the same as the users. I run mine on a dedicated server due to the resources they tend to take up as they become larger. If you do yours this way and do not place the ads on your browsed pages you will be within their TOS and will be ok. If not you will eventually be banned most likely. Best to contact them to find out their view on this and how it will affect you though that is always the best thing to do.
i use the script on: www.net.contrastandcompare.com The ads are not on the browsed pages themselves, just the header frame. so, I guess I am ok?
To tell you the truth when I went to your page I do not see any ads at all. Did you by chance remove them? Kevin
Running adsense on the inside top frame of your proxy script will just lower your traffic value. The surfer is probably surfing something much more interesting ads get ignored. I actually run my own text / banners ads on the inside pages. CTR is fairly low. But lets face it , proxy traffic is low quality traffic.
