I personally experienced this issue for the second time on July 1, 2024, which lasted for over 10 days. During this period, clicks started appearing again, but the RPM was affected by 70% and is slowly recovering. Although I am in the recovery stage, full recovery has not yet been achieved, and I still need to wait before confirming that the issue has been completely resolved. This issue is not unique to me; many others have reported similar experiences online. I hope Google responds to this properly through an official update or message.
Reasons Why Google AdSense Clicks Are Not Counting and Stuck at Zero
Reason 1: Bug
One possible reason could be a bug within the Google AdSense system. If this were an intentional restriction or limitation, Google would likely issue an alert or update in the AdSense policy area. However, without such a notification, a bug seems like a plausible explanation.
Reason 2: Limitation or Restriction Due to Invalid Traffic or Activity
Another possible reason could be that Google AdSense is imposing restrictions and limitations by disabling clicks and limiting ads. This might be due to suspicious activity detected in traffic and clicks, as per Google’s algorithm. Invalid traffic or activity can trigger these restrictions to maintain the integrity of the ad network.
How to Resolve the Google AdSense 0 Click Issue
- Maintain Original and Human User Traffic Ensure that your website receives genuine human traffic. Avoid using bots, fraudulent traffic, or any methods that tamper with clicks. Keeping your traffic authentic helps prevent any issues with click counting.
- Use Ad Blockers When Accessing Your Website Always use ad blockers when visiting your own website to avoid being flagged by Google AdSense for accidentally viewing or clicking on your own ads. Even minor infractions can significantly impact your earnings, as Google may red-flag your account for such activities.
