Previously, I was a publisher of google adsense, but some one
targeted me (dont know cause of competition or jealously) and violently
clicked on ads for continuously 1 week, and atlast after my every
effort, my account was disabled by google. Offcourse they have
predicted suspicious activity in my account, but this is also true that
I was not responsible for that. Hence I have a suggestion to protect
both advertizers and publishers from such attacks which currently
google dont provide.
My suggestion is,
If we allow the publisher himself to
decide whether the click is valid or not. This can be done by providing
the publisher a option in control panel, where he/she can monitor all
the clicks, and if he finds the clicks to be invalid , in the control
panel itself, he can deny those clicks. There wont be violation to privacy policy, as you won't need to show the ip addresses
of clickers, instead whole thing can be tabulated in form ::
Address 1 : 10:15am
Address 1 : 5:10 pm
Address 2 : 10:20 am
Address 3 : 4:55 pm
(here the ip who clicked on 10:15 am, has again clicked on 5:10pm ,so that publisher can deny the accepting second click)
so on..
(here no ip add. will be shown to publisher, only a symbol for one ip address.
Hence
by doing so, all the repeated clicks from a single ip can be monitored
by the publisher himself, and he can deny all such clicks. Hence the
publisher will be surely remain safe from invalid clicks and your team
will not need to monitor all the accounts,instead only those
account who still find invalid clicks in their earning zone.
Please suggest your reviews on what if publishers are equipped with such feature.
