sounds like your clicks are at least questionable - have you seen any sudden spikes in traffic/CTR - where is your traffic coming from?
Look through your web server logs and figure out who has been visiting your site. If possible you want to correspond the web server logs and timestamps with any data you can pull from Adsense reports. Second, you want to install a "heatmap" tracking system on your website to figure out where your visitors are clicking. I used to use crazyegg.com back when they were free and it was amazing the level of detail you show for each visitor. There are other similar services, and I think Google Analytics might have something like this called "site overlay" or whatever. The main point is that you try to figure who is visiting, where they are going on your site, and what they are clicking on. Then you can use this information to answer your own questions about why you saw Adsense clicks without earning any money. It could be those clicks are from a disallowed IP address. Check your Adsense setup and see if there are any IP address filters for allow/disallow. Curious to know what you find out and what your log analysis shows.
What is your page impressions for 18 clicks? You will start getting paid only after reaching 100$. f you have passed 100$ in your earnings, you can unhold your payment from your account settings. Site maintenance is as normal for any web site.
They may be invalid clicks, I used to get mire that 18 clicks but still 0.00 in earning, but I never contact GG about this, since no point, I don't want to get reply from robot again
I am sure that they must be invalid clicks.. if they are from same IP then contact google immediately and ban that IP otherwise it will get you in trouble..
well dear nothing to worry about payment on hold action req and maintenance of google ....... now clicks are not valid thats why google not paid u...... simply got some imps to justify the clicks thats all in my point of view best of luck
