Several bloggers lose their AdSense accounts annually through click bombing. Click bombing is when your ads receive abnormal repeated clicks from specific locations. For instance, an individual will wake up each day, click on your adverts 1,000 times. He will do so tomorrow, the following day and more days after. Few days later Google will disable your account for invalid clicks.
Click bombing is commonly done by bloggers who want to cut the income of other bloggers by ensuring their accounts are disabled. One will plan to click bomb for two consecutive weeks from a specific location. As a blogger, you may be excited that your income has shot up without knowing something worse awaits you. After Google has detected unusual activities on your account, they will monitor your site for few days and send you an email indicating that your account has been disabled. The worst thing is that the account won’t be reinstated and you will lose the total amount of money earned that month.
As you blog, know that AdSense can mess you anytime, that is if a blogger decides to click bomb on your site. You therefore need to sign up to AdSense alternatives like MGID such that when your account is disabled, you’ll have something to fall back to. You can sign up for MGID here
