What is Invalid Click?
Clicks on AdSense ads which Google may consider as invalid click include unintentional clicks, clicks using VPN, clicks from malicious software or bot traffic, publisher clicking on his own ads, heaters or competitors bomb clicking on one’s ads etc.
For an ad click to be valid it must be by real site visitors with genuine intension and must show interest in the by interacting with the ad such as visiting the advertiser’s websites, buying, subscribing to or downloading the products and services being advertised.
We know people like to use VPN to surf the internet, even when the click on your ads with good intention (to patronize the advertised product) their clicks will still be considered as malicious, because no matter what their intensions are, one hiding his identity on the internet is suspicious.
If one uses a VPN, one’s IP address will be changed but device’s records like MAC ID, Session ID are stored in one’s local computer, Google can easily track the information.
Unfortunately, you can’t stop people using VPN from visiting your site, you can at least stop them from clicking many times on your ads to protect your AdSense account.
