For the past several weeks, publishers have been complaining about an issue with Google AdSense reporting that their Google AdSense ads have been getting zero clicks. This has become known as the 0 clicks bug.

There are numerous threads about this issue, but the big one is this Google AdSense Help Thread that documents a bunch of cases of this bug. The AdSense reports may show zero clicks on ads for several days and then update and begin to show clicks afterward.

Ramandeep Singh posted his complaint and wrote:

Google AdSense product expert Busterjet wrote, “I have brought this to Google’s attention via the communication channel available to Product Experts, but have not had a response so far.”

The issue seems to resolve itself and then comes back again.

Here are some screenshots of the issue:

So if you see zero clicks in your AdSense reporting and you think something is off, it might be related to this reporting issue.

Google has not yet confirmed the issue but that is Google for you when it comes to AdSense.
