accidentally looking at own ads

[Unknown_User0002]

I've been bunny hopping the forums for a little while and I was wondering. If you were to see your own ads would the network fix it automatically? or should you email them and give them a heads up on it? I've been on my channel a few times and sadly to say I have ads on my videos and they are on auto play. I'm a little worried but I'm calm about it because I'm still new to it all.

I think it only maters if you click it :/

Yeah I think it only matters if you click on them. If you didn't click on them, it shouldn't matter.

Thanks. I'm not as worried now!

Even an accidental click every once in a while is okay and google registers it as a whoopsie daisy. However, if you start clickbombing your ads, then you get your adsense suspended or banned.

Basically this. They ignore the odd click because you may be genuinely interested in what an advert has to offer (and YT no longer counts your own views anyway), but if they register, say, 500 clicks from your IP they'll block you from AdSense.

I wouldn't worry though I think a one-off is something that happens to everyone
