Why is there no "by google" in image and flash ads?

Today I clicked a few times on my own ads! I was not aware that it was Google Adsense.

On one of my sites there is a rotation of Google Adsense, a CPM network and a CPS network.

Both CPM and CPS use image and flash ads and are outsourced to an ad agancy. Today I saw two new ads and I clicked on them see that they were. There were 2 different ads, so in total I clicked 4x within a few minutes. Normally this is not a problem because they are CPM and CPS.

With the last click my internet was slow and I realized the Google syndication URL, and “oh shit” I just clicked on Google Adsense, so Google may think this is click fraud!

1. Is this going to have a negative impact on my adsense account?

2. Why oh why, does Google not show “Ads by Google” under image and flash?

 

you shouldn't click on your cpm network.they will do the same thing adsense does,ban you for click fraud.

in adwords,say you want a 460x60 ad.you upload a 460x60 image and google formats it to 460x55 (or whatever it is) to fit the "ads by google".
flash and some gif's cant be formated,so they are left without the "ads by google".

 

1. You might get banned. Let them know and fix the issue up right away. If you wait until you accumulate $100 for the payout, you'll regret it even more.

2. Some image ads show "Ads by Google", some do not. I am not sure why. Maybe the advertiser can pay to remove that line, if they want? (making a guess)

 

Image and Flash banners do not show "Ads by Google".

Peace,

 

Some ads do not show, some show, the ones which show look like "ads by goooooooooogle"

 

bahahha the only way ads could get onto your site is if you put em there. i would tell google before u get banned. ASAP

 

How can I tell Google?

 

go to your adsense account and look for the contact/support button ... you really should tell google asap, or they'll ban you !!

 

This is on the Google Help page.

 

I dont trust that "no evil" speach.

 

If this is one of your first times doing this dont worry about it...back in the day i clicked on my ads all the time like an idiot haha and nothing happend.

 

If this was not written besides the ad. How come its a google ad ?
How did you discover that

 

yes, sometimes "Ads by Google" is not shown even under the text Ads( But its rare) . About flash Ads, .swf files( flash output files) are not easily customizable as compared to an image.So it occurs sometimes that the "Ads by Google" is not displayed and its not your fault at all. And I think this is even better that "Ads by Google" is not written, chance are people will click more.

So cheers!!
