I am about to try adword, but getting scared hearing this I heard those people who got banned from adsense, keep on using dynamic US IP address and search in google for costly adword keywords and just open all the advertisement shown in the page once Any adword user , does google reports these type of clicks as invalid? Sorry if it is already answered, I could not find it.
I doubt people are getting away with this. Also, almost everyone has a dynamic IP address, so it isn't really a particularity. I'm guessing you are referring to proxy server usage by Hit bots. Google has very advanced tools to prevent these clicks from affecting your credit, but you can always track your server logs and send them to Google in case you suspect that fraudulent clicks have occurred. Personally, I have had some problem with click fraud, but not nearly enough to worry about.
yeh dont be too worried, Using Proxy Servers can be blocked using some good technoligy. Google you would think would be on the game. I have not personally seen this happen to me. Probably only my freinds having a laugh counts
Hello, I wish to say you that Google's AdWords program is the only one that uses a complex algorithm to determine how high a ranking you get. It depends also on how well your ad converts. Technically, the fraudster isn't doing anything illegal, since's he's not clicking on the ads and stealing other people's advertising money.
