Right this keeps happening ..Click Bombing on my site it could be a competitor or a mindless old bint either way i dnt care - how do i find out who is responible and what action should i take ?? Advice is good please .. Thanks
You should email the adsense team explaining what is happening, and tell them that it isn't you, and you don't know who is. That way, it covers your ass if they want to ban for invalid clicks...hehe. Rob
Try adlogger. It gives you the ip address of the clicks. If its always the same ip, try blogging it in .htaccess from coming to your site.
Adlogger can also stop displaying ads to visitors that click too many times. it's not perfect, but it gives you way more visibility than if you don't have it..
Its not that easy to find his IP as if someone wants you out of Adsense , they can get the victory ! They can use different scripts and proxies and click daily 10-12 times with 2-3 different IP's Olgi
Okay, first of all, explain your evidence for your site being click bombed. People always goes nuts about this at the slightest bit of abnormality in their stats.
Not everyone is smart enough to do this. I am pretty sure 90% of those guys don't know how to do that.
Well for starters... all the major proxy sites are being targeted by unknown competition using people's proxy to simulate fraudulent clicks... scary sh@t. Most proxy members received letters from AdSense: proxy.org/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1176233488 (sorry live links not allowed) Probably not related to your site but whatever these sly bastards are doing is terrible.
Which is perfectly understandable, considering that they show their Adsense code on sites that may also have Adsense (different code). Proxies are probably not allowed in the Adsense network. (just my 2ct)
Adsense ads aren't allowed on proxified pages, they are typically put only on the homepage. Most proxy owners are smart enough to comply with Adsense's TOS, and just put them on the landing page, where they are allowed.
