Every month my final Adsense earnings are a couple of bucks less than the estimated earnings. They say that it can be due invalid clicks or even an advertiser failing to pay. Do you all who run Adsense see this regularly? A few dollars could be due to invalid clicks from bots I guess(?)
 


This is the time of the year my adsense goes down; I'm not in as many summer markets as winter market so the earnings loss doesn't look so bad to me.
 
I always get a couple bucks adjustments.... but I don't take adsense seriously. I typically put adsense up on new projects until the traffic picks up then they get dropped for my own shit. Doesn't everyone? No? WTF man, get it together.
 
It happens real time as well. Like you will get a $2 click and then 5 minutes later it's only $.5 clikc. It's apparantly something that Google has always done, just now they update clicks real time and then correct them. It's based on things like bounces which will bring down the CPC a lot or apparantly if an advertiser has conversion tracking, then that will affect the CPC as well. So in a way Google is using Adsense as a CPA network, but not paying nearly as good. Adsense is a pretty big scam imo unless you block out all the mofos branding on it.
 
My adjustments are around 1-2 bucks and maybe once every two months. SO infrequent.
 
My adsense account just got disabled and they said it was due to the risk of invalid clicks. The thing is my finalized earnings has been etremely low around the .001% range. Around 5-10 bucks a month even though i earn close to 5 figures a month.

Anybody have any tips on getting an adsense account back? I filed an appeal so I'm holding by breath!
