    120 impressions 11 clicks 9.60% CTR. Should I be aware of getting click bombed? Or this could really happen? How can I track it down? Thanks

    If its real traffic going to your site and its fairly new.....google make think its click fraud.....probably best to let google know about a traffic spike to your site.

    I wouldn't worry about it dude, it could be legit because of the low amount of impressions you have.

    If it was like 10,000 impressions, then it would be a problem.

    I thought the same. + Google has some kind of algorythm of detecting invalid clicks, so I think they just wouldn't count them. It's just I don't want to lose my AdSense account because of some jerk.

    I would not worry about it today. If it happens again tomorrow, then maybe contact Google and see if they can help you figure out what is going on.

    Don't worry about that, you will see that happens again and again. Only cheat people got banned from Adsense.

    You need to tell Google ASAP that you had nothing to do with this and to wipe it off your stats. You might lose that revenue but its better than getting blocked by Google.

    No need to worry too much, as there are only 11 clicks and the CTR does not exceed 10%.

    I wouldn't worry at all. If you are using the link ads you could easily have had 4 or 5 clicks from just one impression, so even if you normally only get 11 clicks out of 1000 impressions it could be that in this instance you checked the stats at a time when you got a flurry of activity. Or it could be that you have recently done something that is getting you more targeted traffic than you were getting before so it seems out of the ordinary t

    If thats all it takes to get canned by Google,then several would be clicking their completions' ads to get them canned.
    Googles not so dumb
