Hey everyone. Okay 2 questions. 1. I have a user who uses my proxy daily and has been clicking on ads daily I believe. I see him on my IP hits daily, and he's only one of a handful, so is that OK with Google? Or are they going to get angry? 2. You can have 2 adsense for content on one page along with a adsense for search on one page, correct? Also can it say "Visit Our Sponsers" above the ads, or is that sliding along the lines of a ban? Thanks
1) How do you know he's been clicking everyday? If you think he/she has been clicking everyday, BLOCK THE IP from accessing your AdSense ads. Just not worth it... and it's not normal for someone to use a proxy AND cick on ads... DAILY. I'd def. block ads from that person... but how would you know he/she is clicking? Ad click tracker? 2) 3 AdSense for content is max... AdSense for search I think max is 2. Visit our sponsors = BAN BAN BAN. Only label "Sponsors" or "Advertisements" ... Visit our sponsors is asking your users to click... and like I said = BAN BAN BAN.
Could you please explain how to add a Ad click tracker? This would help us all to ban specific IP who is gonna abuse the clicking of ads? I visited google's adsense blog and where it said: adsense ads: 3 adsense text link ads : 3 adsense search: 2 and referral ads: 1 (not sure about this referral ads number though as it is may be going to be dis-continued soon, correct me if I'm wrong) Also "Sponsors" or "Advertisements" this kind of text is rarely seen on pages in web sites? Is it a necessary or is it does something good...I mean some people like to blend everything (ads + content) so that people thinks it's part of the web site. Please shed some light on this issue.
Thanks for the fast response. I changed it to 'Advertisements', I hope that works out okay. And no, i'm not SURE if it's one person doing it, but I get about 10-12 unique IPs a day and its just kinda odd.
There used to be some ad tracker php scripts (aka http://www.adlogger.org), but I just checked that site and I forgot that development has been discontinued for that particular script. Not sure if there have been any new developments... will try to check tomorrow and post if I find something. @ GH - "Advertisements" is the way to go Looks right to me! K... I'm getting sloppy with the reply... 2:30AM and poker is on TV. If I missed something, hope someone else replies!
If you get click from same ip daily than Google takes it as it is someone from your family and your friend . Who is clicking daily for you , but if one ip clicks ad after 3 days than it is ok but daily clicks can ban your account .
I've seen clicks on my site from the same IP results in much lower earnings per click. I think google already deals with this and eventually would just block the IP altogether.
