Here’s something new about Google AdSense according to blogoscoped – Google has just redefined the clickable areas within an AdSense block. Current clickable areas of AdSense will now be shrink down to only areas very near to the ad title and URL, behaving very much like text hyperlinks instead of the large rectangular clickable area.
By shrinking down the clickable region, it is definitely going to reduce a lot of accidental clicks. Folks at AdSense no longer need to analyst that much of accidental-click reports submitted by publishers. Also expect a slight decrease in earnings after this is implemented, so far it’s still showing the AdSense with old large rectangular clickable area here in hongkiat.com

The last time I checked, one of my banners is showing the old format while another is showing the new. I guess they are slowly implementing it.
I read many people who warned of the possible drop in earning with this implementation. I doubt it. It does decrease the chances of accidental clicks but should not affect one’s earnings much. Of course, unless most of their clicks were contributed from accidental clicks. If someone finds an ad interesting, they will click on it whether it is in the old or new format.
