14 DAY TRIAL // As you probably know, the search giant Google strictly prohibits your clicks on your own adverts, an action that might bring you money with ease. Because this procedure is unfair, Google created a special set of rules meant to explain the prohibited and the allowed settings. Most of the users are clicking on their adverts without their knowledge, leading to the accidental clicks that are somehow permitted but uncounted by the parent company Google. Mike Deeringer, AdSense Publisher Support, posted a message on the official blog to inform users about the accidental clicks, sustaining that they are not dangerous as long as they appear by mistake.
"However, we do understand that an accidental click may occur from time to time, so there's no need to contact us each instance this occurs. Because we closely monitor all account activity using engineering systems and thorough human analysis, chances are we've already detected your clicks on your ads and discounted them. While these clicks still show in your reports, we filter out their associated earnings so that advertisers aren't charged. However, please keep in mind that we don't ignore the clicks completely; if it appears to us that a publisher has been clicking on his own ads to inflate his earnings or an advertiser's costs, we may disable the account to protect our advertisers' interests," the Google employee said.
Because the company monitors all your account's activity, it is not necessarily to contact the AdSense team every time you click on your ads by mistake. However, you're encouraged to use the AdSense Preview tool, a special application that allows you to analyze your adverts without clicking on them. Basically, the program helps you view the provider of the advert and the destination of the link. The AdSense Preview tool is also available for download straight from Softpedia.
