Hi ! I registed and used G adsense for 10 days. My Page CTR is about 3% and 2$/day. I have two question. - Is it possible for me to click 2 links per 1 proxy for my own website?.Can Google recoginize my original IP? - Have any one ever use hiding IP tool such as JAP (http://anon.inf.tu-dresden.de/win/download_en.html) or Hide IP Tool (http://www.hide-ip-soft.com/download.htm) before ? Thanks in advance .
Why don't you ask Google if that's okay, they may suggest using different proxy servers who knows they might even give you the addresses.
Unfortunatley it doesn't sound like a joke, test is just a bit of an idiot and probably a one post wonder
You could do it, but it is likely you would be caught. There is more to what google knows about you besides your IP address. It does not sound like you really have the base knoweldge required to even try and do this, so my suggestion is spend your energy on your site and forget about click plans. If you don't, I can almost guarantee you that when you make you first reach the $100 mark you will get a notice telling you that you have been removed from the program.
The better plan would be to take this time and energy and put it into drawing more traffic and increasing CTR and CPM.
The guy apparently forgets Google would read his cookies and then, end of story. THEORETICALLY you could erase your cookies and change your IP, but it's been said on the board before that even still, Google would know it's you (although I really wonder how), but if it's true, you might as well save yourself the trouble.
One thing you have to remember is that google has a lot of data from lots of different places, so if they wanted to they could probably detect unusual traffic patterns across a wide spectrum. How far and what they can actually do is most anyone's guess... Risk is not worth the reward for anyone even moderately serious about bringing in advertising revenue.
Huh... I might be wrong here, but how does me having a Gmail account lets them know who I am? If I erase all my cookies, all the information they have that can identify me is gone. I don't see how they could identify someone without IP and cookies. (This is all academic discussion, I'm not for click fraud. I'm just debating )
I'm sure G has a database filled with lists of proxies that can possibly be used, so ads may not even show when viewed through a certain proxy. I use http://anonymouse.ws at school so I can surf sites that are non-educational when I have some free time. When surfing on their, I've received partially blank pages that say something like "Your proxy has been banned from accessing blahblah.com" instead of the normal homepage. So it's something that they could do. And If they were really hardcore they could target you by location. Your IP # has an actual target location attached to it. So if they see like 100 clicks coming in a half hour's time from 100 different IP's all from the geographic location that may seem suspicious.
I don't think this discussion is healthy. Every one of these threads only encourages more abuse on the system and increases the pressure for everyone else.
Wow... it really does amaze me how with the energy someone would put into hacking adsense just for a few clicks across proxies.. they could spend the same amount of time marketing and getting more traffic to generate *real* clicks, and they'd probably end up with more in the long run, including a functioning adsense account. This has to be a joke.
I think any educated discussion is healthy. Information can't hurt, can it? That is like saying pointing out security flaws at airports help terrorists. If anything, pointing out security issues helps G to improve their system. Keeping them under the covers is what helps scammers.
