Should I Report This?

    Hi,

    Usually I get maybe 1 or 2 clicks on my ads, 3 might be the top amount and usually days of nothing but today I have 13 clicks and while it's only the relatively small amount of 2.02 I was wondering if I should let them know that I recognise this as unusual for my site?

    Man 13 clicks.... You probably should report that to google right away as they are probably having a all hands on deck meeting since the alarms have triggered.

    I dont mean to be a dick but are you fricking kidding me? Do you know what would happen if everyone did that? Use some common sense =)

    But if it's unusual for a site doesn't it seem odd? Had to smile at your first part by the way. I don't want to lose adsense though I wish I did have more days like this.

    Don't worry - Google knows MORE about your sites/clicks than you do. ;)

    10 more clicks then normal is nothing to sweat, clicks go up and down, it only seems like a huge increase because the numbers are so small. My click amounts vary in the hundreds from day to day.

    Congrats on your most succesfull adsense day so far! Keep up the good work and build, build, build.

    Once again, an Adsense publisher develops overwhelming paranoia based on the fact that he/she checks her Adsense stats way too often. They should probably come up with a term for this condition. I volunteer "checkstatstoomuchitis."

    You should check your site stat too. If you find an IP address hitting a single page for 13 times then it will be bad...

    Dear Goooooogle,

    I am afraid I am making money for both of us. Apparently all my efforts to prevent people from clicking on my ads have failed. They are clicking on them in record numbers.

    Please beat me with a rubber hose.

    Regards,

    Adsense Publisher

    If you bought a new site, do you have to inform Google? For example, used to making $5 a day, then suddenly with the new site you're making $50 a day.

    This thread is funny. If you get that nervous about your adsense account, I suggest not looking at your stats so much ;)

    ARe you kidding? If everyone did that, this forum would be missing at least 70% of its threads. :p
