The size of the online click campaign market is growing. This is evidenced by the Google Ad revenue (US) to the tune of $237 billion (2023) and Meta’s ad revenue stands at $131billion (2023). This has grown 6% and 16% respectively in the last year. With the size of the click market growing, it is estimated that digital advertising fraud costs will increase from $88 billion to $172 billion within the next five years. That figure will grow 14% annually and nearly double, as per a Statista Report.  

This impacts all advertisers’ spending on clicks across platforms as click fraud is a multifaced threat that can take many forms, from sophisticated bots and malicious software to organized human operations like click farms.  

Advertisers need to understand the need for accuracy and transparency in click measures and validation to protect their investments and ensure that their marketing efforts reach genuine and interested audiences. 

The measurement of quality of clicks on ad campaigns is still on the backburner. Therefore, the quality of clicks is currently going unmeasured. This is causing significant ad budget to remain unoptimized or wasted across the industry.  

The current impression-centric approach to traffic validation leaves out many click and post-click parameters indicating poor quality traffic. Clicks are measured on trusted advertiser domain vs impression tracking on publisher domain. PPC campaign formats are not within scope & this makes the poor-quality clicks go undetected. Walled Gardens don’t allow impression-level tracking: a major chunk of ad spends are not evaluated. 

Click Fraud affects both Web and App Inventory. Therefore, validation should be done on both aspects. 

Click fraud is committed using click farms. These are bot-powered or human-powered establishments in developing countries where resources are relatively cheap.

This bot or human labor is used to generate fraudulent clicks on advertisements. Malicious publishers, who are usually in cahoots with click farm owners, get paid for these fraudulent clicks, while the advertisers paying for the clicks get no real value from their campaigns.

Since many click farms employ real human beings, their activity closely resembles genuine user behavior, flying under the radar of fraud filters used by advertising platforms. Other click farms employ networks of sophisticated bots that can replicate human activity and pass through the ad platforms’ fraud filters.

Hit Inflation Attacks: This is perhaps the most notorious form of click fraud. A hit inflation attack redirects users to a website they never intended to visit and clicks on the ads on that website. Before the user can do anything about this, they are redirected to the website they originally tried to visit.
