Topic Adsense tracking not accurate?

svarog

This thing have been happening with me for some time already.
Mybloglog saying I'm having 7 clicks on Adsense, while Adsense says I have only 2, and the day is still young.

I've heard before that Mybloglog isn't too accurate, but by how much? It's counting around 10 more daily clicks then Adsense does, and that's kinda annoying, I'm missing lots of money this way.

Looks to me like Adsense is the final authority as to how many clicks we get per day since they are the ones paying us. Since Mybloglog has reported inaccuracies in their counts, I guess it's best not to rely on their count too much...

Adsense does also "weed out" invalid clicks, like multiple clicks from the same visitor, clicks from some proxies, bots etc. so that may be some of the reason why your you're seeing these differences...

I'm unfamiliar with Myblogblog.

So if we recognize that Adsense has the final say on the click count, is there any other reason to check them out?

Yeah, I have read somewhere that not even the Google Analytics shows the same metric as Google Adsense. And they both by Google.

Hence, probably not so positive about mybloglog either.

I don't really trust Mybloglog as they provides some faults in their counts. Just go through Google's Adsense, it really counts our clicks perfectly.

What is your site selling? It might be better to tweak your copy to boost the attention people pay to your product or service. If you can drive your sales up, then relying on Google won't be so critical.

It is not unusual for Google to say you have a ton of invalid clicks just before, you reach your first payout, and then close and ban your account.

I don’t even know that you can track clicks from Adsense through MyBlogLog. I think that it would be best if you are going to depend on Adsense to track your clicks because they are the one that is paying for you and is the real authority on here.
