Good pointers. I was wondering about the proxy sites. Basically do not try to cheat Adsense or you will end up getting banned. Its just not worth it. Work hard on your site and it will pay off.
very good points akash , but some people spoiled the thing by inter click exchanges among groups and clicking ads by themselves . i dont know why and how such foolish peoples get into adsense and latter get banned and complain they are innocent.
i dont think google can track the Hardware IP ..its not possible through the browser atleast ...correct me if i am wrong
I am sure, you will like to see the attached file. It has lot of research done. Disclaimer: I am not the owner of this file, neither affiliated with them. I just got when I was browsing. You can find this file from cs.duke.edu/courses/spring07/cps049s/Slides/12_lane_gift.ppt
yes you r right its mac address but i think its not detectable through browser or any server side programs/scripts except your ISP.
hey friends its true that Google detect hardware ip because every computer has hardware and has one hardware ip which is surely detected by Google i have read that from one of my friends e book which he has taken for 100 $ to improve his adsense earning .... for me im sure that Google detect our hardware ip too ....
I think Google has the technical powers to detect fraud clicks..That is the reason why invalid clicks can be counted...Or probably they have hardware and software to do it considering that they are bigger companies
Its good thanks you. and i think the main problem is costumers of google. If they pay money but cant earn that time they will make problems . For solving this google just want real costumers of that Ads. not webmasters of that website
for me they trace every IP address, if they detected that you always used the same address by clicking your own ads then they will ban your adsense.
