Google Click Fraud Tracking

I found this the other day and found it quite interesting.



Its supposed to be available in a few months, probably in a beta version, then released after the first of the year.

Well before this thing every gets off the ground Google and Matt Cutts, let me make a few suggestions that are painfully obvious, and soon to create a stockpile of duplicate suggestions from your beta testers:

1. Allow an automated IP blocking tool to be used. Within the Adwords tool, offer date values to be selected as a filter, then sorted by frequency.

2. Add an email notification alarm to identify to the user when a rule that we set is broken.

3. Integrate this CF, or as you prefer to call them, invalid clicks statistical information throughout Analytics.

4. Don't just go back to the beginning of the year, you repeatedly say that you have been monitoring this for us so you have the information. Your settlement protects you against any repercussions, so release this valuable information to us.

Setting this up initially, rather than ignore these obviously critical enhancements for your clients, are what we have come to expect from Google.

Hopefully once they get this squared away they can deal with impression fraud.

You would think that would be a priority. Not only is it costing me money, it's costing them a bunch of money too.
