As a domainer, I use AdSense and YPN to monetize a majority of my web properties. I also use Yahoo Search Marketing to drive clicks to a few of my properties as well. And this morning, YSM let me know they caught some invalid clicks from their YPN Content Network, and had credited my account for them. I have yet to scrub my server logs to determine any odd activity, so it was nice to see Yahoo taking the initiative..

Dear Advertiser,

We recently determined that we would not charge a small number of
advertisers for a portion of their Content Match clicks received
during the last few months. You are among the small number of
advertisers who is receiving this credit to their accounts.

Thus, we have credited your account 68xxxxxx90 in the amount of
$94.70. This credit should now be reflected in your account
balance.

We regret this situation, have identified the source of this
issue, and have corrected it so that it will not recur.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at
866-YAHOO-SM (866-924-6676).

Sincerely,

Your Partners at Yahoo! Search Marketing

I do a fair bit of search engine research when scouting domain names, and on this random day, I decided to visit an old forgotten search engine, Lycos. So I did a search, then laughed when I saw the results screen (below)…I couldn’t even see an organic result above the fold on the page.. so sad.
