    Guys

    I want to know how AdSense tracks fraud clicks? Anyone can make repeated clicks on any site's AdSense ads and create problem for him.

    So when a visitor visits AdSense enabled website, which information of PC AdSense gathered. Does AdSense pick any kind of computer hardware number to track fraud clicks? :confused:

    They probably record all of the IP address that are going to the click. That is all!:D

    I think they trace more then IP addresses. They might take serial no. of pc but I am unsure because then it would have been detectable by the Anti-Virus or Anti-Spyware.

    Their tracking of click fraud is purely based on behavioural patterns...if the visitor is from organic search then the tracking becomes much easier for them...but referral clicks they will be multi checking them...they have the bots and algos for such checks...it is a breeze for any advanced coder

    can you ever recover your account ?

    or is your site basicly banned from google ..... like can you do another adsense account from another computer with another adress ? or they ban your site for adsense ?

    They record the IP address. repeated clicks from same IP addressed or the Ip address from where you registered gets canceled and you do not get paid for it.

    I also think that Google records the IP addresses. At the moment, I the this is the only information recorded.

    Unfortunately, yes someone can create a problem for someone else.
