I believe ad clicks are not getting recorded properly

    I recently joined MyBlogLog and the stat tracking tool there shows the number of offsite clicks from my site. Over the past 3 days I have observed that there are around 30 offsite clicks, but hardly 1 or 2 is being reflected on my adsense account.
    Why is that happening? How can I verify? Please help

    Are you 100% sure that 30 doesn't include non-adsense links ?

    Well I dont know for sure. I mean, the stats say that there are 30 clicks on googlesyndication.com, it also mentions thew placement of the ad on which the click was recorded

    If you're certain it's not the result of clicks on other destinations, then the uncounted clicks are obviously what Google considers "trash clicks" from known PTC network addresses.

    none of the adsense click-trackers work perfectly.... google not tracking clicks properly has never been a problem before and i wouldn't worry about it if i was you.
