i got a warning from google telling me about invalid clicks activity in account honestly i have never clicked on my ads , but i am suspecting my traffic sources. i used manual traffic exchange i also used google.com/finance. so i was wandering if the prob is from my trafic sources pls honest response
you just received warning or account get disabled? google do not sends any warning,if they found any invalid clicks activity then your account will be terminated immediately without any warnings.
you are doing traffic exchange and google must have figured out somehow tha tyour traffic is not coming from natural sources but artificial sources. if it is just a warning, let he lesson be learned and dont do it again. this might not be too late yet to save your account
I believe if your traffic sources are in Google's eyes as suspected for illegal click transactions that is why you are receiving such warning.
Exchanging traffic is not a smart way to get clicks. I'd suggest you to do some SEO to get constant organic traffic from Search Engines.
i am confused about your question :-s what does manual traffic means? (traffic from search engine) and how you used google finance?
i suggest you to do some SEO to improve you traffic,not exchange traffic ,google don't like webmasters buy or exchage traffic to develope their sites,they like real traffic.
