Click bombed

    I received 0.00 from the click bombers attempt due to Google's detection software picking it up. Should I still report this to Google? What do you guys do?

    Someone doesn't like what you do or they become jealous, so they click bomb your website.

    They keep clicking on your advertisements until they feel your going to get banned.

    disable the ads for few times in a day and enable them few time on the same day, do this disabling enabling game for few days, confuse the click bomber and he will move on with other interesting things in his life :D

    Just send an email to google, they will just note down the ip or soemthing, if you have a tracker, just send the ip details to google.

    Thanks guys. It was a guy from Calgary, Canada who is behind this scheme. I sent a message to Google, but didn't know the Ip address. Figured sooner was better than waiting around for an answer. Not sure tbh if this was the best idea though. He was the only guy with 20+ page views for the day. It may not of been him, but it makes him look suspicious.

    I was bombed many times before and had no issues. Google will sort it out and devalue the clicks.

    Im sure they have software or something that triggers a warning that tells them that the same ip is clicking ads... (i would assume anyway)

    I just read the acai berry article in your blog...good read and on the money as thats what i did lol
    (free trial then realized it was going to cost $80 bucks) so i sent it back ...empty bottle :eek: lmao

    I think there is an option in analytics to track adsense ads and I think you can also track user navigation with analytics (search for it). And you can also enable ip logging on ur site.

    Hopefully this issue will be resolved soon, if Google sees that its coming from the same ip address each time, Im sure they will just stop counting clicks from that address.

    Yea, I've never had a 1 cent click today. Just got one a little earlier today. Man he either came back and clicked once or it screwed up my account. Let's just say I've never had a .10 or lower click before.

    That wouldnt surprise me one bit ...:rolleyes:

    They are like fleas on a dogs back :D

    You may want to disable ads for a few days and see if google figures it out
    but unfortunately you will lose any income for those few days...
    (which im sure are his/her intentions in the first place)

    thx

    Yea, doesn't really matter if it's a few dollar losts. I made a little over a 100 grand in the last six months with my other job. I'm trying to increase my earnings with adsense, but figuring out it's kind of hard right now. Damn it markus, but w/e it's not really worth the money right now as I'm fine in real life. Just wish my grammar skills would improve. Math and science always came easy :(.

    Thanks, I'm also going to be closing out my digital point account.

    Dont feel bad i dont make my bulk money from adsence either (if i did id starve) :D
    Glad your doing good with other job (send me a plane ticket ill come work with ya) lol
    As for the Grammar... thats why you keep posting and figure out the slang used by everyone :)

    I wouldnt cancel anything... Dont sweat the small stuff and little minded people that frequent forums
    just to piss people off as they dont make money and why they get frustrated and hate others ;)

    Good luck regardless ...

    thx
