As you know, here very often we read messages that account was banned for fraud clicks. It's may be fraudulent clicks from competitors or anything else... It would be great to prevent these clicks? Ok... If you browse your google analytics logs, you can see that one unique visitor browse around 3-5 pages on your site... So, there is no sense to show adsense on more pages per visitor. I have developed script, that can remove adsense ads on the fly from page if visitor browse more pages that you allow. I will send this script to everyone and assist for only $9 (PM me). If you have questions, let's discuss here.
Yea i have a question, this should be posted in BST forum why here? Why do I have to install any script when I can just tell Google of suspicious clicks. What if there are genuine visitors visiting more than 5 pages? I miss out on the chance of other pages' ads being clicked.
I'm afraid that I will have to go with Project Mobius on this one. I am not a programmer, and I would undoubtedly screw this up. Then have to pay $9. And then probably screw it up again. Then there are the currently unknown aspects, yet to be discovered. Plus, I am a VERY late adapter, especially when I don't know what I am doing. I am pretty confident that Google offers me some protection, by implementing analytics on my pages. Then can see any funny business, even before I might notice it. I don't even know what php stand for - pretty hot program? Hah! I have no business fooling around with this. . .
There is no harm if all of the pages are with adsense ads. If somebody want to disturb by fraud clicks still he can do after the alternations you have said to be done
Hello... Sound good to me basically your not tampering with there code and also going to get better CTR (in thoery as if the guy didnt click the first few times he wont all together so why bother showing him after the 5th page) which will mean that you get paid better since not as many page impressions ( in theory correct?) thx malcolm
this is also an good method but waste of clicks not suspecious but original clicks that have been arriving but your ads not been shown to them cause you get maximum click 3 due to this script that is the big demerit of this script i didnt like it just do it manual tell google about it if your earning is not increasing and your click is increasing simple
If someone wants to defraud you they will find a way.... I dont like the idea, that after x amount of times the ads go away...what if the next page had a different ad that the user was interested in? I say back to the drawing board...
Well, I love your idea about controlling fraudulent or invalid click but the best is to notify google about it, because not all clicks are invalid. We can't say actually what click is valid or not, google will know better. But however your script was a nice idea and we may be interested one day. Goodluck.
well if you posted a demo or showed me the code, I'd take a look at it - he may be on to something. I like to get my feet wet so I don't mind looking at the code to tell you whether it'll work or not.
Google himself should supply that option: How many clicks do you allow per IP per day/week... and so on. But they're too busy searching for the newest wild adventure, or how to fuck up Gmail again...
Adbrite has a program if someone clicks on a ad more than twice at a visit they go to click another one it will not open. With all the money google has why can't they implement something like that. Have I mentioned that google is not god and google and adsense sucks.
I would agree with jkadin.. Google could and should do something about this.. But until then i rather report to Google myself then lose potential clicks on my adsense..
