I've received 3 clicks over the past hour but with no increase in my total payment so I'm assuming that Google has deemed them to be invalid. I have not clicked them myself and all my traffic is coming from mostly organic search and forums. So how does Google determine that clicks are invalid? It's frustrating not to be paid for clicks when I'm working so hard to generate good quality traffic. Is there any way for me to know where the invalid clicks came from so that perhaps I can avoid driving more traffic from the same place? Thanks!
google's fraud detection technology is a big hush hush and it looks like you are checking your stats a little too often
They have some aliens working for them at the google's fraud detection center. And they're pretty mean, so watch out.
