Hi. Yesterday I had the strangest experience on one of my blogs. 5 clicks but 0 impressions reported on my Adsense account. I had checked it immediately after the previous day had ended (not midnight in my time zone) so I am wondering is this had something to do with incorrect reporting of impressions. And I earned $6.83 from those 5 clicks. I was wondering how this could occur. I have previously seen 0 impressions and 1 click. But never 5 clicks with no impressions. Any idea? Is somebody click bombing my site? Thanks
beware mate..always contact google for it or if you don't contact google your account will be banned coz google guess you do click fraud
That's very strange. Well at least it's not that big amount of money unlike what happened to other guys who got banned. I think you're safe as long as you yourself know that you didn't do fraudulent activities. Good luck!
on June 17 I got 2 imp for $6.15, but it is strange that you got 0 imp for $6.83. I recommend you to just mail to Google for a save side.
Better check with Google. How can someone click on your ad without seeing it (impression). If you get 6 clicks you should get at least get 6 impressions.
It could be a reporting glitch with Adsense but it would be safer if you are going to tell them about that mate.
very wierd. could be invalid clicks that will eventually be deducted. just wait and see. i dont thing for so low bolume clicks, you will need to contact google but doesn't hurt to ask jut in case
Seems a very strange behavior.. Looks like a click bombing.. You can contact Google to be on a safer side..
Thanks for the replies. Problem is how do I now prove that this is what happened because by the end of the day, I had close to 1,000 impressions and 40 something clicks. Would the Adsense team be able to track this down? What is the best way to contact Adsense about issues like this? Never had to do it before.
You need to contact Google Adsense and let them know about the issue. Or else you may lose your account.
