MFA at its best

    I think I've found the source of my low paying clicks the last couple of days. Every landing page (even the 'about' page) just has 3 adsense banners for content. Somehow I doubt this guy is paying more than a few cents a click :mad:

    Yep, done that. I hadn't checked my account for a few days and saw a massive drop in revenue when I logged in this morning. I trawled through my sites with the preview tool and found this URL on 90% of them. I only wish the ad filter worked a little faster...or Google was a little more careful in who they let advertise.

    IMO you need some kind of script for tracking the ads clicked on your site(s).
    That way you'll see the ads clicked worldwide, not only on your country. Also you'll discover how many MFA sites are out there :eek:

    Has nonsense to filter ads not appearing on your site. Limit your efforts to block only those non desired ads appearing on your site.

    Good advice, although in this case if you have room to filter this URL I'd do it - if you get targeted by him your CPM will take a nosedive (if my problem really is with this spammer). I usually clear out my ad filter every couple of months and revenue then increases for a short time, but junk sites like this need to be blocked ASAP
