    I have a website which receives 100-150 impressions a day with adsense. I don't promote the site at all I just update it and all the hits from search engine. I just login my stats and see 1,000+ impressions I don't see how it's possible when i never promote this website. I think someone is using my adsense code. I emailed them hopefully this can be solved. WHat do i do?

    You can add URL based channel and know if the impressions are coming from your URL or not.

    Could be someone scraping your content too. Check your server logs.

    Could it be cached pages in the search engine?
