Hi all, I just wanna know, what is the "EARNING LINK" in payment history page is all about? Every month around 5th date i can see a Earnings link posted to my payment history page. My Question is, If they post that earnings link...., is it that they manually check the IP address of every click, and make sure that it is legimate and found no invalid clicks?
Earnings is your total earnings till date. And yes, Google will catch you if you do click fraud, they will probably ban you.
Not only the IP they run (a complex) algorithm to determine if all your clicks are legitimate and retrive those that are not and give you back those that are.
