# I'm glad you're enjoy the ads (?!)
I'm sure you are not - but please don't over click them.

Google monitors suspicious activity - lots of clicks in a short time from one location - and takes it all quite seriously.

they ripped me off £300 quid because they thought i was clicking them myself repeatedly. never did.

Of course, but they especially like clicks they don't have to pay for.

# they want legitimate clicks
i.e. catch real people who've read the ad and click to find out more.

Random or automatic clicking isn't of any use to anyone.

For the advertiser = higher price, but no more exposure
For google = makes their service look less effective, hence lower sales
For the publisher (i.e. b3ta) = we can get booted from the system

No I'm very restrained.

Crazy place is the world of PPC....the marketing geek at work was saying the word "credit card" can reach £6 per click. Google are making off like bandits.
