Click Fraud Protection
» » IF YOU’VE EVER RUN A
Google Ads pay per click
campaign then it’s highly

the question ‘could someone
click on my ads and waste my
money’, it’s likely you’ve been
a victim of this activity. Sadly
click fraud is prevalent within
the locksmith industry and
has almost become widely

Guardian has rebuilt a new

– IP SWITCHING

if someone changes their IP
address?’ This is what could be
considered the crudest way of
committing click fraud whereby
the ad is clicked a handful of
times, find themselves blocked
from repeat clicking and then
change their IP address to trigger
ads again and reoffend. This is
loop that
we have experienced

and have resolved with a new
fingerprint feature. With this
feature enabled, we are now able
to match the device with the IP
addresses it’s using, essentially
being able to monitor whether
a certain device is switching IP
addresses allows our systems to
block this activity before it causes
excessive financial wastage.
IMPROVED RULES
A new more sophisticated
rules-based system is now
included whereby an advertiser
can configure up to 5 rules. An
example of this may be:
If my website receives 3 paid
clicks from the same visitor
within 30 minutes then block
them.
