What do i do ?? Clicked Ad by mistake

[MeHost]

Hello,

I have been running google adsense for about a week, And today i was making a new site, And by mistake i wall scrolling down my page, And clicked on one of my ads.

I highly don't want banned from google adsense, So can i contact them ? Or do you think it will be ok ?

Thanks For your advice.


**And if i need to contact them, how ?

I don't think it will be a problem a single click but you could try to contact them.

I wouldnt be concerned, i have done this probably 3-4 times over the last 5 years. Its easy to see an ad that attracts your attenion and without thinking, hey presto you clicked it.

I certainly wouldnt do it too often but Google can see that it doesnt fit the pattern of click theft.

Thanks, The reason I was worried, As because i have been with them for 3 weeks then suddenly clicked, They may think i am clicking my ads, There has been no news, So think its ok

Thanks

Single click is not a problem, don't click it again.

Google will not banned your account on single click.. but if you continuously click on ads from same IP and if they got same IP at time of Login in Adsense account then there is chances for ban.

take care in future.

If it is just a single click than it won't be a problem until or unless you belong to an Asian country. Google seemed to be pretty strict with the Asian countries when it comes to its Adsense policy. Just make sure that this thing won't happen again in future, and there is no need to contact them, everything would be great, but if you do than still there won't be any harm, they might appreciate you for that! So it is really not an issue if you want to contact them.

If they think your clicking on your ads..well they'll know....They will let you know.
Don't let it rent space in your head...you'll be fine as long as it was only once.

1 click isn't a problem but you should be careful next time.

If it happens by mistake then that is bound to happen at some point or another but I wouldn't risk it by clicking on your ads because it is not worth being banned from adsense. Focus on the quality of the content of your website and you will see your traffic increase.
