Do you ever click AdSense ads?

    I am not talking about clicking your own AdSense ads.

    What I mean is, do you ever come across an AdSense ad on someone else's site that interests you enough to click? Personally, I never click on AdSense ads anywhere. I can't even remember the last time I clicked an ad.

    Perhaps I am paranoid from guarding against clicking my own AdSense ads, that I have made it impossible to click anyone else's. I'd be interested in hearing your practices regarding this matter.

    Only about 3 times in my life and I've been online for several years.

    Actually the one time it was the "click the fart button" just because the ad was annoying me so badly I had to find out what all of the fuss was about.

    I click the ones on DP every so often, mainly because they're of interest to me (which I presume it what both Google and the advertiser wants). I'm not sure if I've ever bought anything as a result though. On other sites I rarely find that the ads are sufficiently useful to warrant clicking, but I probably follow one or two ads a day on average.

    I guess I am the exception then. I click on adsense ads all the time. It's part of my industry research. How else will I find out about new and upcoming things?

    I've clicked like 12 144 1728 times on adsense ......

    Just kidding :D

    Maybe 12/144 times per year +- 12 times.

    Depends on ad, word, site, time, mood, mouse position, and so on :)

    Sometimes if the heading (and/or the ad) is REALLY witty/different and catches my attention, I click to see if the owner has other tips I might pick up! lol ;)
