Hey there, I own 2 proxy sites and have adsense on them (yes i know google is clamping down on proxy sites atm, but they make less than 1 dollar a day between them, so atm it doesn't matter (and i have no other sites). Anyway i logged on about 16.00 GMT (20mins ago) and my first shock. 2 clicks on content = 9 cent (thats not the shock.) SHOCK 2 clicks on adsense for search= 51 cent!! However as the next 20 minutes progressed my day was to get more shocking. I refreshed the page around 20mins after the first login and i was literally AMAZED! I was now on $5!!!! Before you give your congratulations (if you were going to), that is not the reason why I have posted. The reason I have posted is because it seems so strange that I would suddenly get these extra clicks with an average of 63cent each. Luckily I have adlogger, but the story continues to get more shocking 5 clicks have shown up on adlogger. 2 from one IP address and 3 from another. So that's 2 unique IPs, over the period of 2 hrs. So now I'm slightly worried that I may have been visited by the dreaded 'clicking bot'. I'm wondering if this is normal, whether I should ignore it, or if i should be worried and possibly message google. I'm going to check my stats a bit more to make sure, but what do you guys think about this? Thanks.
i think you shouldn't worry at this stage. when i was hit by a clicking crazy it was hundreds ofinvalid clicks, then i just wrote an email to google before they did, so it was fine.
