Invalid Clicks?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by umarboy, Mar 9, 2008.

    I was just checking my adsense a while ago. I had around 13 impessions and 2 clicks. But right after 5 mins... I had 40 impressions and 20 clicks....damn!

    I think somebody is trying to get me banned or something... I have emailed google about it but lets just hope they arent invalid clicks...cuz i made some good $$ outta it! :D:D:D:D

    Check whether the clicks are from different ip address.

    It's better to email adsense AND keep a close eye at your stats, if those clicks continue you should remove that site from the Allowed list.

    Look at your Website stats, and see if there is one IP address that visited your site way too frequently. If there is, block it and see if this problem goes away.

    That was a right decision to report Google about it. You should do that to protect your account.

    google should have some sort of protection for us we have no control over anyone that wants to site on your page and click a ad 100 times

    i had 17 clicks yesterday that gave me $0 so i figure they where bad clicks

    I'm not really worried about it because my major traffic comes from Google itself.....
