Another thing, if they ban people when they notice that there's been invalid clicks from a certain IP address, how do they know that has not been done intentionally by a competitor? E.g. you go to someones site and start clicking on all the ads (won't take more than a few minutes). Then you go back the next day (preferably at the same time) and start clicking on the Google ads again. And so on for a couple of weeks. What will they do then? Consider the owner of the site a scammer because somebody else screwed him? My friend asked this from Google, because he beleives that was the real reason (a few weeks prior to that he received an angry email from a competitor in the same field), but no reply from Google. Or better said, same template BS replate.Last edited by tesoro; 12-14-2006 at 04:34 AM.

As for the timing. The first thing that comes to mind is the accounts might be audited when the system flags for a payout. If that makes sense. So when a user gets close to Google cutting a check they audit the results to make sure they're valid.

What if someone starts clicking intentionally on a competitor's site Google ads, following a certain pattern that would make Google flag the account?

Again, invalid clicks are not only from clicks arising from one IP. See the URL in my quoted post.

So does anyone know any advertising company that is good, and not pissy like google is? I prefer something that pays good like google. Before my account got disabled, I was getting 25 cents average per click! Anyone have first hand experience with yahoo ads???

If your pagerank is decent you can try the Text Link Ads I have heard good things about them.
I use AdSense though my traffic is very little, I only have like $1.70 in the past month
What if there is a link or two that I want to click on in the Ad because it looks interesting? Or are they against single IPs doing hundreds of clicks per day?
Ah I just read their what not to do and it says never click on any of the links. How do they know its me clicking on the link and not my next door neighbour?
My IP doesn't match that of the website.. so??SharkBait

I think my biggest question rising from reading this thread is. How can you safeguard yourself from such bans and such illegal clicks done by competitor? How?
And are you saying there is absolutely NOTHING you can do once ur banned by google - as in there is NOONE to write or correspond to? dont they have claims or something department? i mean if u get screwed over by someone else, surely there can be done something?

Be aware of how your site is promoted.
Search Engines.
Don't place Google ads on sites that contain prohibited content.
Webmaster content.
Respect Google trademarks.
Done.. They reviewed my site and contacted me about it.
Don't tamper with the AdSense code.
N/A
Provide a positive user experience.
Webmaster forum.. very positive.
Provide a good environment for advertisers.
Same as above.
Be responsive.
Their first contact was the "disabled account" email.
Yet my account was disabled due to "invalid clicks". I'm not trying to convince anyone, people that know me in real life know I've had no computer access for months due to training. It just bothers me knowing that I've done nothing wrong and get treated like this.Webmaster Forum • webmastertalk.net • Webmaster Community Forum

Google TOS says that you will get paid for valid clicks. Also, TOS says that you should not generate invalid clicks. It does not say there must not be invalid clicks. After all, invalid clicks can happen without you doing it.
I know someone that open their google account and their website in a public computer. He logged out but left his website open. Then someone else might click on his link and google will think that those are clicks from the same computer.
