Click Fraud In the Spotlight

September 25th, 2006

Bucks for clicks. It's that simple.

A lot of online marketing managers are going to be hearing from their bosses this week: “So, what are we doing about click fraud?”

Takeaway for marketers: The degree to which this is a problem is still under debate. What’s not debatable is that if you’re doing keyword advertising, you need to keep a very close eye on the numbers.
