So if someone wanted to they could get me banned?

By clicking on my ads 100's of times on the same IP?

 

yes unfortunate my friend - but u could alert google adsense support when u see annoying increase in the number of clicks - so u are safe.

 

Actually it is quite difficult to do

 

Visit adlogger.org

It's the adsense adlogger. It can prevent multiple clicks by same IP + many more good features along with the URL that they clicked.

I'm quite shocked that nobody is mentioning this piece of good software, everyone with adsense should have it i think.

 

may i ask why?

 

Wow never heard of this before until now. Thanks! any down side of using this program?

 

What if he uses a different IP and clicks 1-2 ads everyday? Sooner or later Google will detect it.

Unfortunately webmasters don't have any tools to determine the exact source of ad clicks in such cases.

 

Google isn't that stupid to not know you're being attacked.

 

Disagree - Robots are stupid at times.

Okay so somebody clicks on his ads 100 times, he doesnt contact google,(cos its smart enough as u said) and he gets banned the month end, and yes, google is smart - proclaim it to the world!

 

yup.. but thats what you call fraud click and google is not fool enough to pay for those.

 

Yes, it happened and there is nothing you can do as telling Google will kick you anyway...

 

Yep, so sad , google does not have any solution yet to prevent multiple clicks that usually done with bad intention.

 

Adlogger cannot prevent this problem, IP's change all the time.

 

I was actually thinking about this the other day. Google has been known to detect 3-4 clicks by the same IP. Imagine 100. Should be an easy one for them to detect. I was just thinking that if someone had a grudge all they would have to do is go to their site and click away. Boom, their biggest money maker (for some) gone.

 

Actually, they are pretty stupid! Just give me an website you own (with adsense), and i'll have your account down in 2-3 days. It's pretty simple.. I just click your ads like a mad man a couple of times a day..

It's pretty unfear, isn't it? Damn Adsense and their stupid rules. How much easier would'nt it be for them to:

1: Stop paying for the clicks after X clicks from the same IP/machine.
2: Stop showing ads to an IP/machine after X clicks/impressions.

The least thing they could do is give us a warning before they close us down.. giving us a chance to fix things! but no, they prefer to close us right before payout!

 

Such a great and simple idea.

 

ya it may occur n one is not safe from it

 

sad to see. We have to prevent others from getting you banned, google wont do it for you. Ill need a program that limits the same person to 5 clicks per day

 

Adlogger also uses cookies in addition to the IP to determine if the person has clicked multiple times. But if someone is dead-set on getting you banned, it doesnt take much to get around that.. But ask yourself, who you would piss-off so much that they would want to do this?

FWIW: i've been using Adlogger for months now and cannot recommend it enough. it's not perfect, and it's not 100% accurate, but for the price, nothing can give the peace-of-mind that it can give.. Trevor, the author is a great guy and is constantly working to make it better (and yes, i DID make a donation to his site for his efforts as a thank you.. and you should too if you use Adlogger )

 

It's a real problem BTW...
