I've been using AdSense for the past 4 days and everything is going just great. I noticed that today I had a couple clicks that generated no $ and and concerned that these might be a problem or maybe from the same person. I've searched my AdSense reports high and low, but there doesn't seem to be any place to get detailed information on any individual click. It seems like I'm flying blind here and I'd really like to get detailed info on the traffic. Am I missing something here or is there only very limited information available to AdSense users?
I think that information is limited to staff at google. You are probably correct though, it is probably one user that is just clicking google ads all over the internet, after X amount of times, google figured out that he was never actually doing it out of interest for the ads, so they just make his clicks worthless. I could be totally wrong, but it sound logical
Thanks Neticule, much appreciated. It's fascinating to know that there is no way we can dig through our clicks. I'd really like to be able to examine what's going on, especially to ensure that I'm not getting smacked by google. So, just to be clear, other than the reports, we have no way of looking at our AdSense stats?
