What Adsense Click Through Rate annoys google?

I have hosted content and just normal adsense content. My CTR for everything for all time is just over 6.05%. Is there a percentage that google starts to research your site? The earnings are still low but I am constantly adding new sites and videos so the views are going and so is the earnings.

My worry is for example today I have:

Hosted AdSense for Content 23 views, 7 Clicks, 30.43% CTR!

I know they are low numbers but some days its even higher than this.

As I have heard the stories about peoples adsense accounts being closed down when they have been making $15k/Month and do not want this to happen if I get up to this amount.

Thanks.
Tom.

    If they wants to ban you then they can ban you for any reason.

    If you think you are following their TOS then you need not have to worry...just go ahead...

    Yes, higher CTR may suspect your account for additional scanning from adsense but if everything genuine then you will be safe!

    Yes, higher CTR can prompt the adsense team to manually review your site. It happened to me when i was getting over 15% clickthrough rate on my ads on one site. But the good thing is that they did not ban me. They only disabled my ad serving for that particular site. Also, I wasn't using unique content on that site and i 'flooded' my site with google ads (2 300x250ads, 3 link units and a google adsense search bar - all above the fold). Just make sure you read the adsense terms/policy to see if you are on the right track.

      I am sorry. But when I read stuff like this what Google does willy nilly, it annoys me immensely. Now, companies like Amazon does not need AdSense income but what if Amazon put AdSense all over their pages and were earning 50% CTR? Would Google ban Amazon? No. Not likely whatsoever. Note that today, traffic referred from Facebook to your AdSense is considered invalid clicks even if you paid Facebook PPC for those targeted traffic. Like Ryan stated above, Google can and will ban you for any reason. Meaning when their stomach aches and feels you are earning way too much portion of their earnings. If everything is up and up and you aren't doing anything wrong or blackhat? Does not matter. They can and will ban you anyway if you are earning too much as they see it.

    Thanks, everything is legal but I use CTR theme and some of my sites are like 1 big article and then ads everywhere, would that be a problem? Like Pepelino said above?

    They can ban you for virtually anything. It all depends on the niche though. I have some sites that are able to pull in double-triple the clickthrough of other niches. As long as you are being honest and complying with their terms with your usage you should be alright
