    Hello guys i have a new blog and i have adsense ON. i always get 0-1 click with 500 visitors a day.
    But now i just checked and i have 48 clicks with 300 visits with a CPC of 0!

    what does this mean? is someone trying to get me banned from adsense? please help what should i do? :confused:

    It could be.. Do you have Analytics or any other type of stat-counter to try and see where the traffic is coming from?
    If in doubt, you should remove the Adsense code from your site until you know what's going on.

    well i went to check and i've found 3 visits that come from a porn site, i have never received visits from a site like that and i don't understand how is it possible either :S

    Also i remember that 1 person once stole a youtube video of mine and also a big post of my blog and put it on his blog, when i notice this i report it to google and they deleted his video and the post he copied from me (which happened to be "his" only post on the entire blog)
    Maybe this person is seeking revenge! lol this is so stupid, maybe i'm paranoid.

    I'll monitor my adsense closely for now, page views go up as usual, click counter is fixed on 48, and CPC is stuck on 0. Is this normal? i mean clicks with 0 CPC.

    thanks for looking this up!

    Just disable the ads in your "allowed sites" of your account settings. this way you don't have to remove the ads they just won't generate any revenue.
    I had a similar problem a few months ago and it turned out to be amazon spiders. Seems to be a common problem when I searched around on the net. I blocked amazon with htaccess and it stopped. Try that and see if you don't get it figured out. You can use stat counter to track where the clicks came from.
