    Hello,

    I have a new community here : http://community.mehost.co.uk running vBulletin forum software. I have a header and footer advert (720x80) and have had 100o page views but only 1 click.

    Now i dont game the system its not me staying on my pc holding down F5 all day !

    As its such a bad rate 1000/ 1 could i get suspended ?

    Cheers

    Where is your traffic coming from?
    It doesn't have to be you hitting F5 but there are scripts that will generate a ton of fake traffic, this could be harmful.

    Ok, thanks. I have disabled the adverts for admins to be safe.

    Disabling adverts for admin would probably be a good call. But I highly doubt that Google will ban you because of impressions coming from admin, unless your manipulating the number of page views. There a plenty of sites out there with very low click through rates.

    No adsense will not be blocked if you get very good traffic.

    No, you'll be fine. I'm wondering about your adsense placement though. Maybe you should consider optimizing that... or maybe you just have a keyword that doesn't convert...if that's the case, you should think about putting something else besides adsense on.

    just watch the CTR , example : CTR = Clicks / # of impressions, views, or queries , if you received 7 clicks 1000 page views, the Page CTR will be equal to 0.7%. , if you exceed 5,5% you r n risk to lose your account! becareful

    As long as the clicks are genuine, you need not worry. Generating lots of page impressions with F5 key will harm your account.

    they probably ban you if you got a lot of clicks on not a lot of views

    High CTR is some times the problem, not low.
