I just checked my report and found that on one page today I had one pageview and two clicks. How is this possible?
It resulted in a CTR for that page of 200%.
Can someone explain?
Thank you very much. This is a great place for the exchange of great ideas.

Don't worry. It's perfectly normal.
Somebody clicked on your ad and waited to long for a page to open. So instead waiting some more, they clicked it again. Therefore, you got 200% CTR. Nothing to worry about.

I don't think that is the reason. The various columns of data with the stats are often not in sync. Here is a good thread to read up on regarding stats -

Or maybe somebody right-clicked and selected "Open in New Window" from the menu? That way they'd be able to follow more than one link from the same view.

Pageviews and clicks are always out of sync. I often see 0 impressions with n clicks at the start of the day. It always sorts itself out.

Completely normal on low visited pages, one page with how many ads?

Two days ago I had a 1 page, 5 clicks = 500% and an eCPM of nearly USD 2,000.00!

Imagine one page view and 9 clicks.

We here in this forum are all very carefully and concerned about ads.

I think watching somebody in the real world how he clicks around would be for any Adsenser a shocking experience.

There is no low

Thanks guys,
I also thought it was due to sync errors by google. But this already happened on Monday and it still shows in my report. Thus, I guess it's one of those things where people clicked and then either pressed the escape button to stop loading the new page before clicking another link or they opened the new link in another tab (mozilla) or window.
