Click Fraud, Your PPC Campaign Enemy!

Are you having a hard time seeing meaningful conversions after your clicks skyrocketed? Do you see a high bounce rate when you're receiving a high number of clicks? That could be a sign of click fraud!

Click fraud is a type of illegal technique, where an illegitimate click is initiated by malicious bots on pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns, to generate fraudulent charges for advertisers. Fake clicks, whether from human or non-human, waste marketing budget and could potentially lose real customers as the budget is hijacked by an ingenuine and unintentional click.
