    It basically means a user clicked more than one ad per impression...

    Example, if you have 3 ad blocks, each with 4 ads, that's 12.

    If I load your page, it's only 1 impression but I could click 2 ads.

    As long as you haven't clicked them it's fine.

    if the same thing continues for couple of days then it can be a serious matter, someone could be click bombing you. And if this is a sudden jump in your CTR then there is a risk of gettin banned. So I would suggest you to keep a close watch on your stats.

    there's no problem untill you don't have these stats repeat...if you keep going with CTR 110% then you'll get banned..anyway if you didn't clicked on you own ads there is no problem.. just watch the ip who is clicking much, and if its an attack report..

    Email google.
    take down your ads.

    Nothing more you could do?

    I had a jump from .. $3/daily >>> $14/daily
    I emailed google, They said thank you for sending an email to explain blablabla.. :)

    Good luck

    It may happen occasionally- but definately if it is regular, then it could be bad and someone trying to get you in trouble.

    Search is more than likely to cause this to happen or link units, as opposed to normal banner/ad blocks.

    Occasional page CTRs of over 100% are fairly common, especially if you use link units.

    And it doesn't indicate click bombing. If someone visited one of your pages and clicked 100 times on ads, that's one page impression with 100 clicks, which results in a CTR of 10,000%. In this case, I would be worried, but not for 100%.

    Email google, If clicks are valid they won't do nothing if clicks are invalid they will take some credit

    If you don't email and If clicks are valid they won't do nothing, if clicks are invalid they will ban you ;)

    Dun worry I had such incidence b4 and i emailed google, they told me they will take action..

    What they will do is monitor the situation. And their program are so sophistical that as long as they are the different ads, even though click by the same ip will be counted. But if the clicks are on the same ads by the same ip within 30 days, they will void the clicks' earnings after the 1st click automatically.

    What you need to do on your part is to inform google, so that they know that you have not told someone else to click and help you earn money.

    How do you know?
    It would be a good idea to get an adsense tracker, and you can get it from my sig url.

    Hope this helps.

    Search about adsense loggers / trackers, Many people has been banned for using a thirdparty item together with adsense which is against ToS!

    See nothing to worry about if haven't done anything wrong. :D I got the same kind of response when i had 6 clicks from 1 impression. Never mentioned anything about deducting from my earnings, though, although i'm sure they have.

    I think it's OK to inform google about this but if you didn't click on your own ads you don't have to worry.
