If you do happen to click on your owns sites advertisement inadvertently, it is best to contact the Adsense team and let them know about it. This will not only help avoid your account from suspension, but will probably add some good faith to the team on your behalf. However, don't go clicking the advertisements everyday.

Hehe. You contact them? Believe me, your site or blog under their investigation. Some of them who always click their ads and try to contact adsense team to protect himself is another method to avoid your account got terminated. Many my friends do that. You want to know a result? Most of them got banned. Because i know they always click their ads..

Everyday? I don't think many people so stupid to click their ads everyday.

Well it seemed to work for me. I have been with adsense (I don't currently have them on my site now) for a few years now. When I contacted them they gave me the "OK" and I was fine. That was the first time I clicked on my adsense advertisement. You just need to describe your story and they should understand. If they don't then it is their loss.

Yeah, that's the most right thing to do. In fact, there's nothing wrong to inform them if there's any mistake on our part. And it sure helps to add good faith and most important trust as what you mentioned.

I see. So, you never click your ads anymore about that in that many years? Its hard for me to believe it. But if you really not do that, its super honest!

No, I don't click my own ads. That's what is destroying the market. I let my users (if any) click my advertisements if they want, but I do not click them myself,especially since it's against the terms and conditions.

Maybe. But its hard for me to believe that. Its because when i ask some people, did you click your own ads. They will never admit it. 100% will said that. But after they got banned, 100% will said they click the ads..

So, i hope you really not click the ads or ask someone to do that..

Nope, I assure you, I don't click my own advertisements. I'm too much of a good citizen. I guess my parents instilled good values in me.

However we are getting a bit off topic here.

It's not worth risking your account by clicking your own ad. If any reason your Adsense account get banned there will be even more trouble not to mentioned the potential lost revenue.

If you click the ads, so. YOu will have big potential to get banned. Thats the risk you need to face if you did that. But i think all people love about that risk right? thats why some of them continue click they own ads right?

I think you are missing something here. Not everyone clicks their own advertisements. I seriously doubt big sites earning from Adsense would click their own ads, that would just be pathetic when you have others clicking it and earning your money from their own free will.

Like I said, I clicked it once accidentally and informed Google about it. That was my one and only click. I'm not really creating websites for money, but as a hobby so I'm not too interested in the money I earn.
