Hello, please help me. Someone is actually clicking on google ads alot! Yesterday 1 visitor from Russia and 20 clicks! Also 28 pageviews from Ukraine and 72 clicks!!! What should I do? how can I get rid of them? I don't want to get banned. Please help me.
Just find on google support forums, there is some kind of FORM which you will fill with some date (where clicks come from,time,etc) and everything will be OK. Just use google to find that form url in 'google adsense support forums' or something...
Yep, contact adsense team, otherwise you risk your account. Also you can try to deny visitors by their IP's or country. Good luck
Thanks for the replys guys! Adsense counted only 1 visit from Russia, when analytics shows 4 visits, though I think person who did invalid clicks is from Mordoviya, Republic. Other 3 Russian visitors were from Kemerovskaya oblast Samarskaya oblast Permskaya oblast Analytics can't see IP's so how can I block them? I have Stacounter installed on my site it shows IP's have no idea how to see which IP could do that. Adsense counted at the start of the day all the clicks, but then discarded them so the earned money decreased. What should I do, somewhere I read that Google doesn't count invalid clicks, but don't want to risk my account. Thanks
1. Its your duty, to protect yourself from invalid clicks. otherwise Adsense robot is ready to send you the final email of Account disabled! 2. The only solution is removing Adsense code from your website, until malicious people go away. 3. Blocking Country or IP is not the solution, they can use proxies. 4. Report to Google about this issue of invalid clicks.
Try using BlockScript from blockscript.com, there is a free service too. I use it to block traffic from unwanted sources and also ban spammers enmasse.
Keep adsense informed. No one wants to lose the benefits of their adsense account. Thanks for the post because this is a common problem that many people need help resolving.
too bad something like this is happening to you... it sucks There are plenty of good advices given by some great people in this thread. use it and you will be fine
you can also shoot a mail to google adsense team to explain that all, me too did that and they will refund that amount to advertisers.
You can find best solution on Google Adsense forum, just find the form and report it. Banning IP is not work and not a good tactic against spammer. Also, if you getting good amount of traffic daily(say 2000-4000) then Google possible avoid those click and won't ban you at all.
