    I do if I'm looking for information and the ad seems to answer my need.

    Reading through this thread, it sems like hardly anyone clicks on Adsense ads. Curious as to why. We all want people to click on our ads so we can make some money, yet no one is willing on clicking on ads themselves. If everyone thinking like this then we'll never get clicks!

    I have never clicked my own ad, nor do I condone it.

    I have on occasion clicked on other people's ads when I am interested in the information, or service offered. . . but this does not happen very often

    Just to be clear.

    I don't think we're talking about clicking on ads on our own websites. Everyone knows that that is wrong and against Google Adsense terms.

    What I believe we're talking about is clicking on ad that we come across on other sites that are not our own.

    I don't even dare to get my mouse near google adsense even on other website that i regular went to. My previous neighbour, he like to click and see whats inside till, i am ban from that day onwards. No try not to click on your own ads. ITs against TOS and for your friend's and network's website, same too.

    I click ads- most Ads are actualy to sites that think that their offer is good enough to advertise.
    I won't click on adsense that advertises information of content though, only products and services.
    A piece of advice - specially when looking for hosting - always look at the sponsored ads in google. Some of the best offers are sponsored Ads.

    I don't even read the ads anymore. I simply look at it and go, "Oh, this person is an Adsense publisher," and carry on.

    Almost never. My reasoning is that I'm normally looking for info only and not about to buy some ebook for $39.95, (who buys those things anyway?), so I don't want Google to charge the advertiser a fee when I'm not really a customer. I just open up a new window and type in the url.
