Page impressions

[Buttroast]

I was wondering... if I visit my site does google care about page impressions coming from the owner of the site?

Is it included in the total?

and another random question, when it comes time to pay how much does google take off if there is any illegal clicks or whatnot?

Impressions by webmasters are to be expected. There's no problem there.

To answer your completely random question about illegal clicks: They take off by banning you and keeping the cash.

Hope that helps!

Well I kinda said that wrong
I was looking through the help section and it said earnings arent final
How often are they not accurate?

I don't think I've ever seen any difference. If there's been any it's been slight. What you see is basically what you get, or at least this has been my experience.

There are differences sometimes in a range of a few cents at months' end.

If some clicks don't count you'll see nothing for them immediately. If you have something like 5 clicks 0 cents for one channel this is the case. And that is something that just could happen and that alone won't get you banned.

Oh, and Google doesn't care if you visit your own site as long as you don't do it several thousand times (or so, insert any abnormal high number) a day.

So to sum it all up

You can visit your own site regularly
Your earnings is usally the final if not a little bit off

You should be fine. I visit my site like 30 times a day.

I visit my site about twenty times a day and some days (like today when i reordered/merged/deleted about 30 forums) i must generate between 500-1,000 page impressions.
I never really considered it being a problem as the site has about 20-25 million page impressions a month ( due to the number of pages and amount of text and visitors i suppose)
