    I've seen that happen on occasion to some of my clicks (no earnings). I'd be curious to find out how we can get a click for $0. I think it might be something to do with an advertiser cancelling their account or if the advertiser was using a stolen credit card ??

    They are probably invalid clicks.

    Yeah, the most common reason for it is invalid clicks.

    There are several possible reasons why there is no payment when you receive a click on an ad:

    1). Invalid click
    2). A PSA ad (public service ad)
    3). Advertiser has been banned for non-payment of account (used a fraudulent credit card etc)
    4). The ad was a CPM based ad that paid below $1 CPM
    5). The person clicked on a link unit ad but didn't click on any of the ads that showed up (if someone clicks on a link unit, they will see a list of ads and you will only receive payment if they subsequently click on the paying advert).

    There may be other reasons, but the above list will generally cover most of the reasons why you don't see any revenue when a click is registered.

    drop the MFA site and create a site with good content made for human, not made for adsense. you will be better off in the long run.

    Sounds like invalid clicks.
