NO. This is a very big no-no when it comes to following AdSense guidelines and Terms of Service. Think of it like this. You are a paying advertiser, you have a budget every month set aside for an AdWords campaign. You then activate the campaign. You then come to find our other webmasters were clicking on their own ads to get money from their own clicks. That money was coming directly from your budget. That would make you mad, no?
That is also very illegal when it comes to following the policies of AdSense and is good for a permanent ban from the program. They have tools set up on their own end to detect such activities and can cause a deduction from your income and even more severe punishments if it happens again.
What To Do If You Clicked Your Ad On Accident:
If you, the webmaster clicked on your own ad on accident, which can totally happen – simply notify Google and let them know. A simple note like this will be just fine:
“Dear AdSense Team,
I am the webmaster of my website and I clicked on one of my own ads on accident, I am sorry and will try my best to not let it happen again. If you need to adjust my account balance to reflect the invalid click, please do so.
Sincerely,
YOUR NAME”
This way they understand it was a mistake, and you are sincere, also letting them know it is ok to adjust your balance. If it was truly an accident and it doesn’t happen often, you will receive an email back saying, no problem.
