this can also mean that it cheates people in calculating the total for a month... chances are that it can be doing this also... by this they surely make a huge profit too may be close to a million dollars if for every publisher they do this showing they earned high but at the final spot paying low.... unles like a publisher like me notices it
dude if you advertise any product will you be happy if some guy clicked your ad for fun few times and you are ready to pay for those valid clicks
A Wise Man Once Said - It's not nice to complain about "google", when you earn through "google"... That is because they have a "Ban" button while you do not
ops sorry, I meant no disrespect. I didn't know Allah was the name of the almighty. My bad...I was confused...I thought he was someone who helped you earn the money by clicking on the ads for you..your friend or your relative... I am not in the Islam thingy...you know. And yeah we have a member of our family named Allah, so I thought maybe someone dea is also known as Allah...Sorry my friend..I meant no disrespect
Yes you are right, there's actually a large cigarette company who was rounding checks down from $xxxx.47 to $xxxx.45 and for every check that they had issued - they ripped them off just 2 cents .... no one complained as it was just 2 cents .... one lad did the math and the overall amount shaved equaled $20 000 000 - which was exactly the same as their profit margin .... now they are in deep shit .... these figures are not correct though - just an example. But to prove Google wrong and doing dodgy acts - good luck. Hey .... it made me laugh ....
They arent cheating, they might have tracced some frad or useless clicks. thats the reason they deducted.
They're not cheating, it's adjusting based upon clicks they have thrown out, rounding etc. I rarely have the two sets of numbers match up, it's only off by a few cents each month. In fact, I'm not sure the two have ever matched. Check also your overview vs advanced reports, those do not always match, either, usually only by a cent, again...rounding.
I think its just adjusting for invalid clicks. If they are cheating, why do you think you can find out? They can just show the low amount in the first place or less clicks, why would they minus a few cents and let's you find out? A company like google can easily do that if they wanted to, and you would never have a way to find out how many clicks you actually have. Plus its only a few cents, nothing to worry about. If you can get more traffic, you can easily make it up with 1 click.
It was just i wanted to know people about this if anyone else also has been facing this! but look how much profit it makes out by just removing a few cents... and @1983.. better if u place a post here asking people to stop making fun ..as @thsadmin and others are saying funny stuff..coz u were the one who started it.. STOP IT !!
I think they must improve the report, showing same amount accross the account, so not to confuse anyone.
PM me your Paypal, I will send you 0.04 cents. As others have told you, and I guess you do not have a mindset to listen to things - Google eliminates all clicks that IT detects as fraud. You have accepted that fact and have signed up with adsense. As simple as that. So stop complaining on a totally frivolous matter.
