Default What is Google doing to stop click fraud?

With search engine advertising, marketers pay search engine companies such as Google Inc. and Yahoo! Inc. to display their text ads on Internet surfers' computer screens when these potential customers use specific keywords related to what the business is selling.

Click fraud occurs when a user intentionally clicks on an ad for a reason other than to view the underlying content. The bogus clicks may occur dozens, even hundreds or thousands of times.

So what is Google doing to stop click fraud?

Is Google doing enough to reimburse the loss incurred by advertisers?

Is Google doing enough to control the practice?

I visited a page http://www.organicspam.com/click_fraud.asp and found some useful information about click fraud and how Google is coping with it.

However, Google has confirmed that it is testing a new Adwords system, where advertisers will be saved from click fraud. Let us see what happens.
