TrafficJunky - Majority of clicks from different GEO

Hi everyone,

so I just started my first campaign with TJ targetted to Germany only. Here the stats so far:

TJ Analytics: 84 Visits
Voluum: 86 Visits

Now, thats fine, there will be always a discrepancy between Traffic Source and tracker. But here it comes:

Visits from Germany: 32
Visits from the US: 52
Visits from Canada: 2 (approval check from TJ I guess)

Whats remarkable: all of the clicks coming from the US are from the same area (Ohio, Columbus) and these never click through my Lander.

Whats that? Bot traffic? Illuminati?

Hi trader,
You are right about the Canada clicks, they are from us, that also explains the 2 clicks difference between Analytics and Voluum.
As for the US clicks, it's strange...
Several things can happen (sometimes at once):
1 - The ads have been added to ad spies such as the STM one and people from the us are checking your LP.
2 - There is a difference between the IP DB we are using (maxmind) and the one Voluum is using, in which case we are showing your ads to IPs that we consider German while voluum consider these IPs as US.

As for bot traffic, as long as they we identify them as bots, clicks are not counted.

Both these reasons can explain clicks outside your geo, but not that many, would you be able to message me and let me know your TJ account and campaign name (or ID)?

Thank you very much

Anton
