How Google Detects AdSense Invalid Clicks

Still thinking to cheat AdSense? Stop that. It will never bring you anywhere. You might pull it off with smaller ads network, but definitely not with Google. Here are some detection methods they might use. At the very least, they have the resources to do so.

IP Address
If the AdSense click is originated from the same IP Address as the one used for accessing your AdSense account, your account is flagged.

Cookies
Most home users do not use static IP Address for Internet connection. In most cases just disconnect and reconnect will give you a new IP Address. But don’t forget, Google has set cookies on your computer.

Other Google Services
Thinking that you are safe just because you do not access your AdSense account? Think again. This time, consider these: GMail, Google Earth, Google Calendar, Google Search, Google Toolbar, Google Talk, Google Sitemap, Google Desktop, Blogger, and so on. With the wide range of services they provide, Google can trace the originator of most (or probably almost all) clicks.

Click Pattern 1
Oh, why this computer / IP address / person is so trigger-click-happy on this particular website but never click on the ads on other sites?

Click Pattern 2
And why is it that people accessing these sites direct (type-in URL or from bookmark) tend to be very active ad-clickers compared with those referred from search engine or other sites?

Click Pattern 3
And why the ad-clickers like to hit and run, compared with non ad-clickers that surf a few pages before leaving?

Click-Through-Rate (CTR)
Your CTR may range from 0.5% to 10%, but if it exceeds a certain point (probably around 10%), you are flagged.

Geo-Location
Used Urchin (Google Analytics) before? Then you should know that Google can trace traffics origin down to the small town. Different IP doesn’t mean much. Unless your site is really targeted to one small geo-point, a high number of clicks from nearby location will get you banned quickly.

Hardware address?
MAC address of the LAN card, modem, and router works almost like a fingerprint. I’m not sure if Google can track this, but probably they do. They have rocket scientist, remember?

Advertisers conversion rate
Ad click is one thing. But does it bring value to the advertisers? If none of the clicks on your site translate to conversion to the advertiser, you are in trouble. First the Smart-Pricing hits, then your AdSense account disabled.

Search Engine Ranking
Your website is not indexed on any search engine, not linked by any prominent website, but get consistently high traffic? That sounds like something is in play. Regardless of whether it is an Adware-Embedded Software, Spam, Trojan clickbot, or intentionally installed Click-Exchange network, it doesn’t sound right.

Webpage Design
How about the “click here” or “support us”? Google has the best search engine in the world. Is it really that hard to find those words?

Combo
Each of these detection methods might seem rather weak. But combine them together, and not many click-frauds can pass-through these filters. Even the smartest clickbot will have a hard time.

In short, it is almost impossible to cheat AdSense in the long term. Instead of spending time, money, and effort trying to outsmart Google, try these tips to improve your AdSense earning.

Disclaimer : I’m not working for Google nor in anyway know anyone inside Google. Google might or might not use these methods to detect click-fraud. I’d believe that they have much better detection mechanism.

High Paying Keywords vs Good Paying Keywords

Google Adsense is a very popular easy way to earn Residual Passive Income or to monetize any websites. There has been many research and studies by internet marketers to maximize their adsense earnings and you will learn the simplest way to maximize your income with the tips below which include a Free download of what has been discussed.

Many website adsense publishers search high and low for a list of high paying keywords. You will find these questions in forums all the time. This is because adsense publishers know that the formula to High Adsense income are based on 3 basic things:

  1. Traffic - The higher page impressions, the more likely you will receive clicks on your ads.
  2. Click Through Rate (CTR) - The higher the click through rate, the more clicks you receive.
  3. Value of Clicks or High Paying Clicks = Keywords - The higher the value of clicks, the more income you will receive.

Hence the formula is:

Income = Traffic x CTR x Click Value

However, the days of high paying adsense clicks ( cost per clicks ) of $10 - $30 are almost over. Even if you do find these high paying clicks such as Debt, Refinance and Insurance, you will notice you have the least chance of competing to get traffic as these niches have been conquered by the BIG BOYS.

Not that it is impossible, but it will take a lot of time, dedication and effort to achieve some results.

So what we can do is, instead of finding HIGH paying keywords, we find GOOD paying keywords with lowere competing pages.

high paying keywords

I have compiled 200 Good Paying Keywords based on 15 categories of a very good niche “Sustainable Development” from the September package of NichesInBox. You can download the keywords here.

You can use these keywords to build a website with articles and contents and start enjoying good paying clicks for your website.

Good Luck

Top Paying Keywords for Adsense

ok, this is what we are all looking for, making a site with utmost best content and getting it popular… but problem is, sometimes people receive 100 clicks a day and are unlikely to get over 5-10 dollars.. where is the problem? problem is, some keywords are ‘low paying’, means click on such an ad brings you a few cents.

Some clicks, however, can bring a few dollars… but we never know which clicks were they and therefore sometimes cannot improve. the answer to this question cant be found if u go to the Advertisers side - AdWords. Here are some I found after my little research (from top):

  1. web hosting
  2. Point of sale software
  3. hosting
  4. University Degrees Online
  5. degrees
  6. SEO
  7. university degrees
  8. satellite
  9. Health
  10. Medicine
  11. entertainment
  12. webmaster

Also, i pulled from DigitalPoint this list:


Mesothelioma: $52.81
search engine optimization: $20.06
affiliate programs: $19.06
register domain: $16.91
merchant account: $15.81
domain registration: $13.88
refinance: $13.80
hard drive recovery: $13.43
buy contacts: $12.64
web hosting: $12.26
merchant accounts: $11.30
merchant account application: $11.05
student loan: $10.75
credit card application: $10.73
broadband phone $10.25
video conference $12.05
video conferencing $14.85

However, experience shows that making a site dedicated purely to high paying keywords do not always help. After I have built the Lorelei Web Hosting Directory I was expecting every click to be worth 5$, but it did not happen। However, each click worth a lot more than some on my other websites. Still, if you don’t know what to so with yourself and your space time and decide to make a site, better concentrate on something that will bring you some more revenue… Good luck!
