7 clicks in 1 impression- What should I do?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by nwk, Jan 24, 2008.

    I got a new site - http://proxywebsites.blogspot.com which doesn't have much traffic and just now, it got 7 clicks in 1 impression. I was shocked to see the figure and I'm afraid they might ban me for this. I have just removed the adsense codes thinking there might be some bots going around.
    Please Give any idea on what should I do now. Should I contact adsense support or just leave it and put my adsense code back again.:confused:

    Contact adsense and tell them you think someone has been clicking your ads and they should get it sorted :)

    NO, don't contact anyone. why r u worrying about?

    I had once 1 impression and 18 clicks, that is some one clicked one by one on all my ads, it happened few month ago, nothing happened

    what can u do to control anything like that?

    what if someone do massive clicks on ur site, will that ban u?

    then spammer will start to do this for everyone's site, or people will do this with their competitors

    I don't think you need to worry. This has been very common lately.

    It never hurts to contact them, but google takes into account things like this. Everytime someone emails them about something like this there email is always like "Our system only counts it as one click and blah blah blah and not to worry about it lol. Like I said though it couldn't hurt, unless your site violates their tos then contacting them might not be the best thing ;).

    I agree with most of the people so far, it doesnt hurt to contact them. It would suck if you didnt and it just happened to be the one instance they follow up on.

    But it doesn't make sense why should you have to contact them.

    If Google looks at can see 7 clicks from a different IP to the publisher but from the same IP then they are obviously invalid.
    If they are coming from a different IP then the publisher is obviously not doing this.
    A one-off i don't think you should contact, maybe if it continues to happen?

    Can they really just say "Someone clicked your ads too many times, so we are going to ban YOU?" Is this really possible....?

    I contacted the adsense support but I got this reply.

    After this I just decided it doesn't have to be a reason to ban my account because after a while I got some more impressions and the ctr is falling down. Thanks for your suggestions anyway. :)
