In 2006, Click Forensics became the first industry source for statistically significant information on industry click fraud rates when it created the Click Fraud Index™. The Click Fraud Index publishes data collected from the Click Fraud Network™ (www.ClickFraudNetwork.com), the industry’s first independent third-party click fraud detection service dedicated to helping companies more accurately monitor their online advertising campaigns for pay-per-click fraud. Click fraud data is tracked and published on a quarterly basis for specific search providers, industries and trends. The service is unique in that it monitors online campaigns for click fraud by correlating data collected from search provider campaigns and the advertisers’ own web sites – providing the industry’s most accurate view of click fraud to date.

Click Forensics also offers solutions that allow online publishers, advertisers and search engines to automatically block sources of click fraud and poor quality traffic from hitting Pay Per Click (PPC) advertisements. Similar to a spam filter, Click Forensics for Publishers and Click Forensics for Advertisers solutions filter out click fraud and other low quality traffic in real-time so customers can improve the performance of online advertising campaigns.
