Google AdSense Preview Tool, a simple addition to the right-click menu of Internet Explorer that offers the ability to view the ads that would appear on a web page. With just a few clicks, you can see the ads that may appear on your web page, check the destination URLs of ads, view sample ad formats and colors, review colors on your page and view geo-targeted ads for different locations.
AdSense Preview Tool is perfect for testing ads. All the ads displayed in the preview tool are in a test state. So, clicks and impressions generated by those ads are not counted. You can easily check the destination of ads without the risk of invalid clicks. In fact, Google recommends it.
