How come so much of Filtered Clicks for some Solo Ad Sellers?

3 replies
I bought 5 Solo Ads recently from Udimi.com

Out of these some have only 2 or 3 Filtered Clicks in Udimi Stats. (I mean fake clicks filtered by Udimi).

But some sellers have over 39 Filtered Clicks. Is this not something wrong? Are they doing something unethical to send clicks?

Can anyone explain?

    I have this happen as well. In my experience they are not doing anything unethical. Filtered clicks also include duplicate clicks as well. This means that if a seller does not get you all the clicks you ordered on the first send and re-sends your solo, some people who have already clicked on the link may click again, resulting in duplicate clicks. These are then counted as "unfiltered". In most cases this is what is causing so many "unfiltered" clicks.

    That doesn't mean that you shouldn't check out the cause when you see a lot of unfiltered clicks. If you see a lot of clicks from "robots", it could mean that the seller is sending bogus traffic. Normally, though, if you get decent conversions and there are a lot of unfiltered clicks it just means that the seller did a re-send without creating a segment so your ad may have gotten sent to the same subscribers more than once.

      Thanks a lot for the insight.
