These click fraud companies first came onto the scene a few years ago and now there are so many of them conning so many people that we had to look into them… So a line a JavaScript allows a private company to intercept an ad click from Google to your website and block it after their code confirms it’s not a potential customer? Utter nonsense
Anyone in the marketing, website development industry knows that these companies are a complete scam, if this could be done then Google, the enormous company with 1000’s of coders and billions of dollars would do it, plus if it was possible (it isn’t) how would their code know which clicks are genuine?
What Google does is detect multiple clicks from the same IP, blocks them and refunds you, they have always done this.. NO ONE can predict if a single click is a real customer or not how could they, If I search for a organic SEO companies near me and click an ad how does this code know if I’m a customer of just a rival looking up the competition?
As a marketing company managing a few Adwords accounts we had clients constantly asking us if they needed to sign up with one of these companies, Click Guardian, Click Ease etc…. Of course we said no but what we did is signed up with Click Guardian ourselves, we set up a new adwords campaign, signed up, then paused the campaign the same day…
Here’s he proof, A month later we got a report from Click Guardian claiming that they had blocked 247 fraudulent clicks on our ads now we where meant to cancel the services and report this to our clients but one of our marketing guys forgot and we paid 2 months, the second month was the same, 100’s of fraudulent clicks on our ads blocked…
We had Zero ads running….. I actually rang Click Guardian to ask how they had blocked clicks on ads when I had none running? they refused to comment instead refunding me all my money..
Verdict : Complete and Utter Scam, you are paying for absolutely nothing
