Default Paying People To Click Your Adsense Ads

This is crazy!

Just read about this service in another thread - Click Monkeys!!

You basically pay these guys to click all your adsense or private ads on your website.

Is anyone actually using this?

Is it just me, or is this completely unethical??

Does this result in adsense account banned?

Well apparently this company is based on a ship sitting outside of US waters (I somehow doubt that) - So they are not subject to US law and they claim the whole thing is legal.

Either way, I guess if Google sees anything suspicious with your account they can ban it.

Wouldn't matter anyway, Google would see that as click fraud, and would definitely ban your account for it.

LOL, what does Maritime Law have to do with Google realizing that the Adsense clicks are skewed due to this service? Once Google realizes the issue they will ban your site. It does not matter where the clicks originated.

If there's an unnatural amount of clicks to your adsense ads, Google notices by the averages being completely imbalanced.

These "click monkeys" are not going to be buyers, and if you have a barrage of clicks with no conversions going on, it's obvious what you're up to and you'll be duly slapped and banned.

Default Re: Paying People To Click Your Adsense Ads

I wonder how google would handle someone hiring these guys to click on someone elses adsense ads with the purpose of getting their adsense account banned...

And the registrant is from the US:

Registrant:
Rick Sanchez
1136 Fay St
Redwood City, California 94061
United States

But he could have created a company in the Ukrain. But his domain is registered in godaddy and hosted on an american company...

Anyway, I'd never pay anyone to click on my adsense ads...

"Balmer was yelling at us to dominate web search , but we just didn't see how we could build our traffic quickly enough. We turned to Click Monkeys!!™ to make a traffic bang!. Thanks to them, I got my bonus, our site is on top, and Balmer thinks I'm great!"
--Product Manager, Bing.com


Does Bing even know about this? LOL!

I don't think they would like to be associated with these unethical practices in the first place.

Are they nuts? Legal? What is legal about committing fraud and stealing money? Who cares if they aren't in this country, international theft is still illegal.

And bottom line, Google will catch on pretty quick and shut you down for click fraud. Anyone would be nuts to think that this would be a good idea.

Wow, that's insane.

Good to see Bing is using them though, ha ha.

You'd have to be a monkey to use this service.

In other news, there's something about the site design I like, though. And the whole ship nonsense and graphic, love it!
