Study Shows That Bot Fraud Is Alive And Well With Internet Advertising

By Josiah Bashir


ANA which is an acronym for the Association of National Advertisers is responsible for shaping the future of digital marketing and ensuring excellence in this field. ANA currently has a membership of over 600 companies and 10,000 brands which all spend over 250 billion on marketing and advertising. They also act as a fraud detection company and as a result of their work have found that the level of bot fraud in the digital marketing industry is too high. As a result, they have launched a study on this bot fraud which they have called, "The Marketer's Coalition."

If your conversions are low, you have been trained and brainwashed into believing that it must be something about your ad, the audience you are marketing to, or the products you are selling. We don't want to think that the very advertisers that we are paying thousands of dollars a month, or even a day, are actually unscrupulously swindling us out of our cash.

ANA is going to do a good service by doing this report because it will shed some light on various practices that are going on that aren't fair to buyers or people paying for ads. It's good to have an idea of what's going on when you work with advertisers so you're not paying them for false traffic and to lie to you. These consumer agencies are going to help to make sure that advertisers and other people in the industry stay honest. It's people that do this kind of work that make it very hard to hide any kind of fraud.

So what can you do now that you know about this report? Is there anything that can be done to hold these people accountable? Odds are, the increasing amounts of digital advertising will continue to grow. People will always advertise online, and hope that they will get the best possible deals. Unfortunately, as the study has shown, thus not always going to be the case.

As you can see, ANA is completely committed to understanding bot fraud and with time, will be able to reduce its occurrence.

It is the hope of the ANA, otherwise known as the Association of national advertisers, that after doing this month-long study on 30 different advertisers, there is the possibility that this type of behavior will diminish. It's sad to say that some of the most recognizable brands are actually involved in this type of behavior, recommending that action be taken prior to October before it continues to get worse. In an attempt to minimize fraud, this joint effort has provided this information on a public level, hoping to make sure that these companies will be held accountable for what they have done.
