I have a site that the adsense revenue is consistently low on. When I check my analytics account it show that I am getting clicks but my adsesn stats remain at 0 or at best, about 30% of the clicks the analytics stats are showing. I've used other tools to check that my publisher ID is showing on the site and it is for all my adsense blocks. Not sure how I can check to see if someone else is profiting from the clicks or if google is really discounting 70 - 95% of the adsense clicks I get....
Maybe it's a low paying niche, or your traffic is somehow not so good? btw, you dont have the logo i've made for you!
I've used it elsewhere on other sites and banner exchanges My Traffic is about 50% from search engines. Even if it is a low paying niche, google will still pay you won't they? My clicks are totally discounted whoch is what is baffling me and because 70 - 95% of them are discounted i'm wondering if i've been hacked by someone elses adsense ID
Why not? If you hack the whole then there is more likely the victem will investigate sooner. If you just take a portion, for a while they will think it is the usual adsense variation. It will take longer from them to spot
For some reason you may be attracting invalid clicks. Or you have CPM ads. Try replacing your adsense blocks with new blocks and see what happens
That's what I did yesterday (replace the adsense blocks) and the analytics and adsense stats matched up for the first time. Today however it's back to normal. Analytics is showing 7 clicks. Adsense is showing 0
All my sites are wordpress based and I use a plug-in called 'google analytics for wordpress' it allows you to track all outgoing clicks including adsense
Go to some of your pages, then View Source, and make sure that it's your publisher ID that's in your AdSense code.
