There is any script or some way to avoid bot traffic? I heard some cloaker can do that

There are ways to detect bot traffic, but not to avoid it being sent - you'd need to control the traffic source for that.

If you want to know more about bot detection, here's a good thread: http://stmforum.com/forum/showthread...Your-Campaigns

Plugrush and PopCash are both full of bots, I've detected that alot of the times the 'botters' are using cloud services such as amazon ec2, google cloud, micfo, etc.

Here are some ip ranges you can block in plugrush.

This is a very unconventional way, and ghetto way of doing things, but it requires some grunt work which keeps me busy.
So, for any network when you're doing say, RON or PPV, and want to track down sources of bot/botters traffic. I use this small script.

So say, your domain is www.lander111.com/exoclick/ppv/index.php?domain={domain_token_here}&pub_id={publi sher_id_here} set this in the traffic network you're buying from. Once you do that, this php script will allow you to log hits, and other things such as ip, useragent.


<?php$iplogfile = 'logs/plugrush.txt';
$ipaddress = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];




//load the file
$file = file_get_contents($iplogfile);


//check to see if the ipaddress is already in the file
if ( ! preg_match("/$ipaddress/", $file )) {
//nope, log it!
//$webpage = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'];
$plugrush_id = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$timestamp = date('d/m/Y h:i:s');
$browser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$fp = fopen($iplogfile, 'a+');
fwrite($fp, '['.$timestamp.']: '.$ipaddress.' '.$browser. ' ' .$plugrush_id. "\r\n");
fclose($fp);
}
?>
So analyze the logs, use something like regular expressions and maxmind, and calculate how much traffic is coming from data centers, or cloud services.
Why would you want a site sending you half bot, quarter bot traffic, anyways, you'll end up losing money. So say if they're sending you data center ips all the time
you already know to weed out that source and stop wasting time. Keep your eyes open, and get rid of those pesky botters.
