Is there anything one can do when adesense suspends your account. I received a mail saying invalid clicks were made from my site. I'm assuming this means clicking own ads but this is something I've never done as I've read of many webmasters being suspended for this. Any other reasons why I could have been suspended??

Invalid clicks doesn't have to mean you, could be anybody that decided to mass-click your ads for whatever reason. Can't do much except try and speak to google.

Sounds like an excuse to get out of paying to me..........

Honestly, I wouldn't expect this from Google.

I personally don't really trust those programs. Getting your money is pretty hard considering that you normally need certain enough made per month, so if your site's not that popular this way is hard to go. You might want to check their terms for what this (invalid clicks) means. Try emailing them also.

invalid clicks could mean several things.

repeated clicks from the same ip.

clicks being made over and over by a robot.

asking people to click to support your site is also against google's terms.

They don't just suspend your account on a whim, google has been very good to work with in my situation and the checks get here monthly and they don't bounce...

well you need to contact google for this. I think onf of the reason might be you are ancouraging your visitors to click the ads which is against their TOS
