Clicks don't sum up on channels

    Hey I have all my sites on channels so everyday if I sum it up they all amount to today's earnings. Today I sum up all my channels earnings, it's $14.50. My todays earnings shows $15.20. About 33 clicks I got are originating from sites I do not know. What does that mean? Someone put my ads without my permission or the stats are not updating?

    it means you have ads being displayed without channels. visit your sites and see the source code to identify which one doesn't have any channel and fix it if it bothers you that much

    It's odd, I recently started having this happen too.

    I realize I probably have an ad or two out in the wild without a channel, but it's got to be months old & I am curious about it happening to others at the same time here.

    I just turn on my allowed site list and this is what I got:

    Unauthorized Sites
    The following sites are not on your Allowed Sites list but have displayed ads using your AdSense publisher ID within the last week.

    Please note that since this report contains weekly data, it might contain sites you allowed less than a week ago.

    Site URL
    www.cewekcewek.net

    I just reported it to Google. I hope google won't ban my account. I only got 90 cents of invalid clicks form this "evil guys" site and hundreds of dollars of valid clicks due to me.

    Try putting it in channels. That should solve it

    that is what i think too. Anyway I am optimistic about how Google handles this as I think it happens to many people. And I am turning on my allowed sites list from now on.
