get started

Click fraud is theft. Unfortunately, it falls into a gray area of not being illegal and yet, leading to thousands of dollars being wasted.

Our system monitors all your incoming traffic (desktop and mobile). When our system detects click fraud, the IP – address is blocked instantly.

Google detects click fraud, but it does not completely prevent it. Instead, Google will give back the credit to your account days after the fraud took place and only after you have claimed it. The immediate results? Your Google.Ads budget will be exhausted and your ad will not appear online for hours or even days. In addition, Google’s click fraud characteristics are identical for all the advertisers.

At clickfraud.dev, in order for us to automatically add IP exclusions, we require access to your Google.Ads account. This access is required for us to be able to make the changes automatically and help keep your Google.Ads account protected. We fully understand that your data is a sensitive matter, that being said you have no reasons to worry as we are very strict when it comes to our client’s privacy.

Once we have access no changes will be made within your Google.Ads account apart from our system automatically adding IPs to your exclusions list, which you will be able to see for yourselves when looking in your Google.Ads change history.

We implement the minimization principle, both in the data points, it collects and in its retention policies. 

What is the role of your services under GDPR?

Clickfraud.dev acts as a data processor under the GDPR. In a nutshell, Clickfraud.dev’s customers own the data, and our service processes it on their behalf.

Our protection service stores data that customers have given voluntarily. For example, Clickfraud.dev may collect and store contact information, such as name, email address, phone number when customers sign up for click fraud protection services. Clickfraud.dev may also collect other identifying information from its customers, such as IP address. Clickfraud.dev uses the IP -address, together with other data points, to determine whether a session is fraudulent, and once such determination is made, to block the user from further access to the customer’s website.

We identify a user or bot as soon as they visit the website. This means that they don’t necessarily have to come from Google.Ads for us to have them already blocked. If a bot or a fraud click has occurred on your site directly before clicking your ad, they may already be blocked.

Our service labels click as suspicious when there is any chance the traffic can be legit. 

Clickfraud.dev does the job for you, you don’t need to do absolutely nothing!

Automatic IP blocking is a feature only relevant for your Google.Ads account and have numerous advantages. First of all, by automatically blocking clickers that are committing fraud, you are reducing the number of clicks they can produce on your ads. The direct result of this is that the attacker’s IP is blocked, and you are not losing money.

Secondly, our service adds the fraudulent IP across all of your Google.Ads campaigns, even if the fraud was triggered in only one ad from a completely different campaign. Lastly, as an advertiser or a business owner, you have many other things to take care of and worry about than adding each IP manually and wasting your precious time.

An IP range is a group of IP addresses allocated to a subsidiary service provider. They are defined by the number of bits and can be divided into groups. A single IP (32 bit) is marked as 255.255.65.2

A medium-range of IP, 24 bit, includes 256 IP addresses from the same service provider range and it can be marked for example 255.255.65.0/24 or 255.255.65.*.

A broad range of IP, 16 bit, includes 65,536 IP addressed from the same service provider range and it can be marked. For example, 255.255.0/16 or 255.255.*.*.

Our algorithms take advantage of the fact that many times click fraud is performed from the same IP ranges and networks. Thus, blocking a range or a network that has been proved malicious will prevent future click fraud attempts. Also, this tactic will save valuable space in Google’s IP exclusion list, which is limited to 500.

Sure! You can contact a representative directly for any questions or clarifications you may need, using the chat option within the Clickfraud.dev personal account, by sending emails (info@clickfraud.dev) or calling the contact numbers.

In case you do not remember your password, you can click on the Forgot Password option on the login page of your account and an email will be sent to you, with which you will be able to create a new password. In case you do not remember any login information you can send an email and a representative will contact you in order to restore your account information.

Nowadays, almost every advertiser is suffering from some form of click fraud, be it large or small. Click fraud is growing at an alarming rate, with the general consensus being that up to 20% of the total advertising budget for each online advertiser is spent on fraudulent clicks. If you are advertising on major search engines, you are probably a victim of click fraud.
 
To know if you are a victim of click fraud or not, look in your Google.Ads dashboard and see if you find, for example, a rise in clicks non-related to any campaign or possible reason you can think of.
 
You can also notice if there has been an unusual drop in your conversions and you haven’t made any change to your budget or campaigns. Moreover, when checking your website analytics, if you see an increase of unusual traffic coming from unexpected locations, take notice as this can signal click fraud.
 
You should always be suspecting your competitors and unsatisfied clients, both will likely look for ways to hurt your company. The competitors part is especially true if you are in a highly competitive industry as clicks are more expensive and thus more painful for you.
are you a victim?
To apply automatic IP blocking to your account, we must have access to your Google.Ads account. This access is required for our system to make changes to the exclusion lists of your campaigns to stop click fraud attacks on your account in real-time. We realize that this is indeed a sensitive matter and because of that, we are very strict when it comes to our client’s privacy.
 
No modifications will be done to your Google.Ads account apart from managing all of your campaign’s exclusion lists. No one will access your PPC account unless you request us to do so.

We check your website visitors once every minute to identify the parasites. The more traffic – the greater the workload on our systems.

We assume that it would be more logical to make a price plan based on the size of the advertising budget from a business point of view. With an average click fraud volume of 17-29% (we didn’t come up with these numbers, there are global statistics at different sources, for example, this one), this approach may be more understandable. But as we have already mentioned earlier, our price only depends on the cost of analyzing your traffic.

We analyze all traffic to your website, and we mark down potential clickers.

how we protect?

We don’t limit the number of IPs blocked, however, there is a limitation with Google.Ads of 500 IPs block per campaign. Once this limit is reached, we start to remove first the older IPs from where clicks were happening.
