What are clicks?
What is a click? A click refers to a site visitor clicking on a link, whether it's in an email or on a web page.
A single click can also be called a "hit," and the number of clicks determines the number of hits for a specific URL or webpage.
Other names may be used to identify different types of clicks:
In this article, we will refer to all types of clicks as "clicks."
How are clicks tracked?
Clicks can be tracked in many different ways depending upon what you're trying to track and where the tracking code is located within your website's template. The most common ways include: JavaScript code inserted into your HTML header, JavaScript code inserted into your HTML footer, and Google Analytics tracking code (which is usually placed in the HTML header).

How many clicks can I expect?
Every website is different. Sites with lots of external links will likely see more traffic; sites that primarily serve as an information portal for visitors to download documents may receive fewer hits than those offering downloads themselves. The number of hits you do receive depends on how your site is ranked by search engines, among other things.
What causes a high number of clicks?
A very popular new webpage or article could cause a high number of clicks. Another reason could be a misconfiguration of the tracking code installed on your website—the most common cause being a Java script error that creates multiple instances of each unique click event.
The importance of clicks
A high number of clicks are important to your bottom line—after all, that's the whole purpose of running an AdSense campaign. This is why it's vital to know what causes a high number of clicks and how you can prevent this from happening.
How to keep your numbers low
Once you have identified which pages or articles are receiving too many hits, it makes sense to stop ads being served on them so as not to avoid paying for accidental clicks—clicks caused by mistake or accidents rather than intentional clicking by visitors. To do this, you should remove the tags linking these URLs with your AdSense account under the "Ad serving" tab in the page level settings menu within your Google account. If you're using third-party ad serving software, you should disable the ads for these pages within the program.
"If you make "click fraud" a part of your regular vocabulary, it will definitely help to keep your website out of trouble."
So how do clicks work? A visitor types in a URL or follows a link to reach your site. The browser requests the page from the server and displays it on screen. This is when an AdSense ad can be served into that space. By default, this happens only once per visit—advertisers are charged for this single impression. However, if the user then clicks on one of those ads while they're still on the same page, they initiate another request to load another ad which means two impressions
