it is being seen that many highly paid adsense accounts get deleted .if i continuously,click on to your ads, your account too will be deleted by google saying about the invalid clicks. how this action can be justified if the owner is not knowing the one who click his ads?
thats why as a website owner you keep an eye on your adsense stats, if things start looking fishy you contact Google right away and let them know whats going on. Its just a matter of being vigilant.
I've yet to see a major AdSense publisher get banned over invalid clicks, Google has gotten really better at detecting who is doing it and is it related to the publisher. In fact, I agree with Google removing invalid click accounts. Even if your not the one clicking someone is doing it and it's hurting the AdWords advertisers who are losing money on their investment, action has to be taken and that is the only recourse.
but,will the google believe that all are accidentally happening ?...what is the confirmation for that?
Watch over your account, someone doesn't just randomly decide to click bomb your account, obviously someone is out to get you, which is your fault in the long haul. If you notice unsual activity report it to Google AdSense at once.
hi ssandecki,i agree to it....but there are many who try to click just to increase their site click ratio..so how does google spot them?
Well, considering your using the same computer with cookies that Google uses that's probably one way, another is your IP address or if all the clicks came from the same local area (friends clicking links). I'm sure we couldn't even guess the more advanced ways.
Google is smarter than you think. If you play by the rules, even if you get clicked bombed on a daily basis (like many of my sites), Google will sort things out themselves. As long as you are not part of the illegal activities, you should be fine, and trust me the system works most of the times. There are times when the banned publisher is actually innocent, in all times they are re-accepted into the program after review. Peace,
Of course, Adsense doesn't ban you only for being the actual cause of invalid clicks (by clicking your own ads, getting friends to click etc) but for being a danger to the financial well being of their advertisers, by having a site that attracts too many invalid clicks, for whatever reason. Especially if you're not adding much value to the pot by your legitimate clicks actually converting into sales. So, they are not necessarily saying it is your fault personally- though that is probably the most common reason. So, not doing anything wrong does not necessarily guarantee you are safe... though it goes a long way towards it!
Well, I was one of the innocent publishers who got banned. You have to do your best keeping your adsense account alive. Give at least few minutes to check your adsense account daily and report Google all suspicious things. Most of the times Google isn't even writing back to you, but I believe its worth to inform Google.
it is really desperate to have account disabled after earning much income from it ,without being a cause..
can any one tell what kind of unusual activity in the adsense account? far as i know is HIGH CTR, anything else?
thats what really is true, google is very smart, they have the best technology, so if u r doing nothing illegal, then relax
I think per day check your google stats 2 - 3 times. If you find any invalid clicks then contact the google adsense support team and try to save your account.
I think in answer to the question "is google right" the answer would always have to be "yes", simply because they answer to no higher authority. So take the advice above, be vigilant, as if you are banned, its basically tough luck because google in their eyes are always right!
