Google Adsense is one of the most
amazing income sources on the Internet.
Simply paste some code into your web
pages and Google will send you regular checks, without any of
the usual hassles of making sales, keeping stock or supporting
customers.
However there is still one big problem
with Adsense - "Click Fraud".
Click fraud occurs when someone tries to
cheat Google by clicking on the Adsense links on his or
her own site in order to generate
extra income.
This is of course very easy to
do and usually takes the form of repeated clicks coming
from the same PC.
Understandably, Google is very concerned
about this and regularly checks Adsense accounts for signs of
suspicious activity.
If you've never tried to cheat Google in
this way, you may be thinking that this problem has
nothing to do with you.
Hopefully you are right. However you should be aware that there are many
reports on the Internet of
Adsense accounts
being suspended or closed because of
"suspicious activity", even though the person involved
has never tried to cheat Google.
Here are a few of the stories that have
been reported on the Internet...
Case 1 : "Hell hath no
fury..."
John had a steady $50 a day income from
Adsense. Not a fortune but a nice little income.
He split up from his girlfriend. They
say "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned".
Well in this case, it proved true.
She visited his site and clicked loads
of times on his Adsense ads.
It didn't take a lot of effort to do
this. However the result was that John's Adsense account was
closed down. $50 a day gone in an
instant.
Case 2: "Mother, what have you
done..."
Jill was proud of her Adsense
sites, so she told his family about them.
Her family didn't really understand the
concepts, but knew that every time anyone clicked on those
little ads on the side of Jill's web pages, Jill got some
extra money.
You can guess the rest.
Jill lost her Adsense account overnight,
thanks to her own Mother!
There are many
more cases around
... people
using this to shut down competitors' sites
... people
bearing a grudge using it to get their
revenge
... bored
kids simply doing it for kicks
It's
just so easy to do!
The fact is
that ANYONE can
click on your ads, click their browser Back button, then click
on the ads again.
Doing this repeatedly makes it
"suspicious activity", which can get your account
suspended or closed permanently.
Convincing Google that it was not your
fault varies from difficult to impossible. Once your account has been closed, you are not
permitted to apply for another account ever
again.
I heard of one guy who was so
worried about this problem that he checked his own visitor
stats every day and contacted Google whenever anything looked
even remotely suspicious, just to protect himself.
What did he do when he went on
holiday?
Would you believe he removed all the
Adsense ads from every one of his sites!
It might sound crazy, but that's just
how worried he was about this problem.
So what can you do to protect
yourself?
Well now, with our brand new
Adsesne Click Locker software, you can protect your Adsense
account automatically.
Let's take a look at how
this superb software protects your valuable Adsense
income...
Powerful Protection Prevents
Repeat
Clicking
Adsesne Click Locker works on a very simple
principle.
You select a "maximum number of
page views" value. You can select
any number from 1 upwards, but a typical value is 4 or
5.
For each visitor to your site, this is
the maximum number of pages on which Adsense ads will be
shown.
If a visitor views more than this
number of pages, your Adsense ads are
automatically hidden from that
visitor.
If a visitor clicks on one of your
Adsense ads then clicks their Back button, this
counts as a page view. This means that the maximum number
of Adsense clicks that each visitor can make is limited to
your "maximum number of page views" value.
For example, if you only allow a maximum
of 4 page views, each visitor can only ever possibly
click on a maximum of 4 Adsense ads.
There is also an optional feature to
replace your Adsense ads immediately when a visitor
clicks on any Adsense ad, to restrict visitors to a
single Adsense click.
These solutions effectively prevent the sort of repeat
clicking that can lead to click fraud issues.
Show
Replacement Ads
Automatically
Obviously once your Adsense ads
are hidden, you can no longer generate income from
Adsense on your web pages.
You don't want to miss out on valuable
revenues, so the software doesn't just hide your Adsense ads,
it replaces them with different ads.
The software has a fully automated solution to insert ads
from Clickbank in place of your Adsense ads.
If you've heard of Clickbank, you'll already know that they
are one of the best sources for high commissions.
They offer over 10,000 products
paying commissions of up to 75% of the sale price,
allowing you to earn up to $100 per sale.
Clickbank has recently launched a new
"hop ad" system, which provides ad units advertising
Clickbank products.
These hop ads look similar to Adsense ads and can be just
slotted in place of any Adsense ad unit.
Adsesne Click Locker uses these hop
ads automatically. All you need to do is sign up for a
free Clickbank account - and then enter your Clickbank ID into
the software.
When your Adsense ads are replaced, the software
automatically scans your web pages, finds all the Adsense
ad units and generates replacement Clickbank units,
matching the size, layout and colors of the original
Adsense units.
This means you have full protection for your Adsense
account and the option to make additional revenue from
Clickbank.
Or Easily
Create Your Own Ad
Units
The simplest solution for Adsesne
Click Locker is to just use standard Clickbank hop
ads.
You only need to enter your Clickbank
ID into the software and everything else is handled
automatically.
There is however another more flexible
option that allows you to create your own replacement ad
units.
You can
promote any affiliate links - or promote your own
products.
To use this feature, you create an ordinary text file
like the example shown below, containing your ads.
Example text
file:

This example contains three ads
related to the example niche of "fish ponds".
Each ad has a title, then the ad text,
then the link.
It's quick and easy to create a text
file like this. It's also very versatile, allowing you to take
any affiliate or product link and quickly create a short ad
for it.
When you have created your file, you
simply upload it to your web host along with the Adsesne
Click Locker script.
Adsesne Click Locker
will create complete ad units, like the example below,
matching the layout, size and colors of your existing
Adsense units.
