A Small Business Guide to Click Fraud Protection

Corrupted Data: Fraudulent clicks inflate your click-through rates (CTRs) and skew your conversion metrics, making it impossible to accurately assess campaign performance. You might end up pausing a potentially great campaign or investing more in a fraudulent one.
Damaged Quality Scores: Ad platforms like Google use engagement metrics to calculate your Quality Score. High bounce rates from fraudulent traffic can lower your score, leading to higher ad costs and lower ad positions.
Wasted Opportunities: Every dollar spent on a fraudulent click is a dollar not spent on reaching a potential customer

Step 1: Gain Total Clarity with a Unified Dashboard

You can't fight what you can't see. ClickSambo starts by bringing all your critical data into one place, allowing you to spot anomalies instantly. From a single screen, you can see both your Google Ads metrics (Clicks, Cost) and the real actions visitors take (Phone Call, WhatsApp). This holistic view makes it easy to see when high click costs don't translate into real customer engagement—the first red flag of fraud

Real-Time & Proactive IP Blocking: Instantly identify and block fraudulent IPs at the account level. Go a step further by proactively blocking entire IP ranges known for suspicious activity, neutralizing entire bot networks before they can even make the first click.
VPN, Proxy, and Tor Blocking: Automatically block traffic from anonymous networks, a common tool for fraudsters trying to hide their identity.
Conversion Optimization: This is a game-changer. By sending data on fraudulent clicks back to Google's API as a negative conversion, ClickSambo helps "teach" Google's algorithm to stop showing your ads to bad actors in the first place, providing a long-term solution to the problem

Achieving such dramatic results requires a smart, automated, and multi-layered strategy. Here’s a look inside how ClickSambo actively protects your campaigns 24/7
