Which tool out there is best for identifying bot traffic for adult

Doesn't matter whether it's adult or mainstream traffic.

You can setup your own bot trap : text link in the background color (or very similar), 1x1 image with a link ... if it get's clicks, it's bots.

Or there are simple methods like this one : https://stmforum.com/forum/showthrea...n-Any-Campaign

There are also 3rd party services to detect bots, https://forensiq.com/ for example, but they are not exactly cheap... so I'd recommend starting with the two suggestions.

matuloo, what would you suggest for a traffic that goes directly to the offer without a landing page? I could think of something like a blank page with a bot trap. But are bots fast enough to "click" it, because I want traffic to be redirected simultaneously. In other way, what are you thoughts on this type of traffic?

Some bots don't understand standard redirects, so that will serve as a BOT check - if they're not being redirected, it could be a sign of BOTs. That is actually the principle of Caurmens BOT detection method that I linked to in the previous reply.

If you also put an invisible link on the landing page, it will be like a double-check.

So basically, you will have an auto-redirect LP with a bit delayed redirect (300ms or so) and there will also be an invisible link on the LP. If you see clicks on the invisible link, its bots for sure. And if you see that the traffic is not being redirected, it's also a sign of bots.

Dont wanna be a party pooper with some self petting, but: We have in our affiliate programs Brokerbabe (Adult) and Glize (Mainstream) Forensiq included for free use for affiliates. I took anonymous an example of a small network having big problems with bots and fraud: http://prntscr.com/f1ejw6 you can activate click, conversion and impression riskscore, you can break it down with different filters and splitting to scan every click. Its not only for bots but also typical proxy sources that gives you a bad lead quality, or if you have subaffiliates to find fraudulent leads....
