So I guess Google Thinks I am Just Running Around Telling People to Click on My Ads... because I got this email. I think they are just pissed because after over a year I am finally eligible for a commission check. I have had almost 8000 unique visitors in that period. In the same period I have earned over $500 from Amazon.

Just for the record... I have no click scams, bots, or other means of delivering bogus clicks. I have played entirely by the rules. It just frustrates me that suddenly they think I have been cheating around the time that my first commission check is due.

Hello Eran Bair,

It has come to our attention that invalid clicks have been generated on the Google ads on your site(s).

As a reminder, any method of generating invalid clicks is strictly prohibited. Invalid clicks include but are not limited to any clicks that are generated through the use of robots, automated clicking tools, manual clicks by a publisher on the publisher's own web pages, or a publisher encouraging others to click on his ads.

If you are clicking on the ads on your web pages for testing purposes, please note that clicking on your own ads or encouraging others to doso for any reason is prohibited, due to the potential for inflation ofadvertiser costs. Please be assured that there is no need to test theads on your site, as our specialists review all of our ads to ensurethat they meet Google's advertising standards.

If you would like to visit the destination of an ad to view its contentor to add it to your filter list, you can use the AdSense Preview Tool,

available here:https://www.google.com/adsense/previewtool?hl=en_US

The Google AdSense preview tool is an addition to the right-click menufor Windows Internet Explorer 6.x, allowing you to preview the ads thatmay show on any web page. Clicks and impressions from the preview toolare not applied to the advertiser's account. You can click through tothe target site without worrying about invalid clicks being generatedon your account, and without costing the advertiser for your testclicks. If you have any questions, please feel free to reply to this email. We will be happy to help in any way we can.
