Can Anything Be Done To Stop Hostile Clickers?

    The only problem with debating issues online is that when you win an argument against an inadequate prat who couldn't punch himself out of a paper bag that they can then resort to leaving obscene comments and, when you don't sink to their level or play them at their own game and knock them out of the park, they then start clicking your google ads maliciously.

    On one of my sites this is happening up to three times a day and I'm sure it's the same feckless dweeb each time. I see my adsense estimated earnings rise only to have £s removed.

    Are adsense handling these cases better now? It used to be (according to threads I've read on DP) that adsense would ban people who had hostile clickers. I've contacted adsense to give an account of what I think is happening. Is there anything else I can do to protect myself? I could do without getting banned.

    Also, is there anyway I could take revenge on this impotent creep?

    I second this. I am getting very high click rates right now. Is there any sort of WP plugin?

    I don't think you should worry about high click through rates. I have webpages which achieve 50% click through rates regularly and 35% on average. The secret of these is that the adverts are contextual to the content and, as the content approves the product they advertise, people are interested in clicking them. Also, if the product is on special offer near to the readers address then advertisers are actually doing all they can to entice a click.

    I'm worried because I keep getting credited for clicks on one of my sites but these credits are removed up to three times a day.

    Don't worry about the high rate click if you don't click it yourself or ask some one to do so.

    How about you worry about answering the questions posed in the thread post and stop spamming your link?
