		<description>Steve Crossley&#039;s comments are no suprise, the arrogance and dishonesty at Google are beyond comprehension.

Here is a little about my adsense experience
I have never seen good results with our Adwords content ads and as I have investigated and searched the Google network I know why, the content they place these ads on is very poor. I have found ads for Shell wind Chimes on blogs with nothing more than some alluding to wind in their blog. But the worst part is quality sites such as mine (I know this from VERY positive feedback) are turned down for Adsense ads. My website has a lot of content, good PR and has been around a while. Apparently Google figures there is a better chance of clicks on these sites as frustrated readers are looking for more than someone’s life editorial, which why my clicks are high but conversions are almost nil.

Needless to say Adwords nor Adsense will return emails.

My real question is when will some Lawyer get of his or her butt and take Google to court over this abuse.</description>

		<description>I tried to get back in after they accused me of illegal clicks.
I sent an e-mail explaining that I had&#039;nt even set up my advertising campaign for this site and they said the clicks did&#039;nt match the software protection that they use and my earnings were re-directed back to the advertiser. They refuse to answer my emails.</description>

		<description>Thanks for your post.

I don&#039;t believe that a few clicks are a problem, abuse would be super clicking strategies for a profit by a few individuals and some black hat techniques.

Bottom line:  Real traffic from real visitors = Adsense success.

		<description>Good article Ahren !

Avoiding getting caught in Google&#039;s Adsense Click Fraud is almost like walking through a field full of landmines, you have to be sooo careful.  But if one of my relatives in the states click an Adsense ad on my blog, that should be ok, right?  as long as they don&#039;t abuse it, clicking multiple times or visiting it everyday and clicking it.

As long as they visit once in a while and click on one adsense ad, I don&#039;t see anything wrong with that.

Thanks.</description>
