Results from Threat Research: Data Exposes Click Fraud Threat

Clean data is integral for making marketing decisions based on your campaign performances—but the dirty data can help you understand click fraud’s impact on your business.

New research conducted by DataDome’s threat research team reveals a significant percentage of Ad Protect’s current customers were experiencing click fraud within their Google Ads campaigns. On average, Ad Protect identifies around 30% of clicks (per Ad Protect user) are fake—meaning plenty of customers are unknowingly losing budget to click fraud.

Consider your own marketing campaigns—how much money is your business wasting on fake clicks? Undetected click fraud is everywhere, but Ad Protect can help identify and eliminate this hidden threat.
