To find the URL of an Ad being served on your website, you can either use the Google AdSense Preview Tool or use the method as shown below. The Google AdSense Preview Tool is a better option as it prevents you from accidentally clicking on the ads. Another reason is that the method shown below does not work on Flash based Ads.

Find the URL of an Advertisement

Step # 1: Right click on the title of the ad for which you wish to view the URL and then select Copy Shortcut(for Internet Explorer) or Copy Link Location (for Firefox).

CAUTION: Please make sure you don’t left click. If you are not sure, please use the Google AdSense Preview Tool

Step # 2: Open notepad or any text editor and paste your selection. You can either right click and select Paste or select Paste from your text editor’s edit menu

Step # 3: The destination URL of the ad is the text between ‘adurl=’ and ‘&’.
