The invalid clicks filtered out by our system may come from a variety of sources. Common behaviors that may trigger our filters include:
- Manual clicks intended to increase your advertising costs or to increase profits for website owners hosting your ads.
- Clicks by automated tools, robots, or other deceptive software.
We closely monitor these and other scenarios as part of our effort to protect you from receiving invalid clicks. Read our FAQ about how Google detects invalid clicks to learn more about this process.
