Reply To: your invalid traffic rate in google ads is probably way lower than actual bot traffic. here’s what i’m seeing

yeah this lines up with some of the weird stuff i’ve noticed too, like analytics saying one thing but the landing page behavior just not matching at all. sometimes you see traffic that looks “clean” on paper but the engagement is just dead silent, no scrolling, no clicks, nothing. i dont think google is totally blind to it but it def feels like there’s a gap between reported invalid traffic and what actually feels legit in real usage. at the end of the day i started trusting pattern consistency more than any single metric cause that’s usually where the truth shows up
