Is there really a such thing as Adsense Click Fraud? Yes, it sure is. It is when you click on your own Google ads that you might have on your blogs, websites, or other online content. You would not believe how many people’s accounts are being terminated because of this, but it does happen. The thing is, you can’t really get mad at Google for this because they are trying to protect the advertisers wholesale
What can you do to avoid getting cuffed?
If asked for your web site’s access logs, hand them over to Google. Now I now many of you won’t like this, but this allows Google to be able to check for suspicious activity on your website. Now if you accidentally click on your own Google ads then supplying these logs will be your support in proving that it was an honest mistake and they may be more forgiving. Google takes this type of issue very seriously so if you ever make this mistake you will want to make sure you are cooperating as much as possible. Here are some other things that you can do:
If you disable ads for your own IP address and your local area then it will prevent any accidents that may occur. This is also helpful because there is no way that Google can mistaken any clicks from others in your surrounding areas as you clicking your own ads.
If you like to use popups (they are so annoying) then make sure that you have Adsense turned off for them.
NEVER try to increase your revenue by telling friends and family to click on your ads. And let them know not to click on your ads, because they might think that they are doing you a favor by doing so – WRONG ANSWER!
Anytime that you find that you have mistakenly clicked your own ads, fess up because if Google finds out in their own round about way you will have to quickly switch to defensive and convince them that you have done nothing wrong. Honesty gives you a better chance of forgiveness, but if you withhold this info you are going to feel the wrath of Google lol. And if you have been making good money with Adsense I would hate to see you lose it.
