Not every placement deserves your budget
Display, Performance Max and Search Partner campaigns can serve your ads across thousands of websites and apps overnight, and some send almost nothing but invalid clicks. A handful of low-quality properties can absorb a disproportionate share of your budget.
ClickPatrol's Placements view turns that sprawl into a ranked list. Every property your ads ran on shows Safe Clicks, Fake Clicks and % Fake Clicks side by side, so instead of guessing which properties to trust, you sort by the worst offenders and toggle them off.

Why ClickPatrol and Google counts differ by 4 to 8%
Some Search Partner sites do not support third-party tracking templates, so those clicks never reach ClickPatrol, and interactions like calls or asset clicks that never load your site are not tracked either. The gap is a measurement artefact, not a fault: the placements ClickPatrol can see are ranked by real quality, so you act on the inventory that is actually draining budget.

How ClickPatrol works
1
Open the Placements view
See every website, app and search-partner property your ads have run on.
2
Sort by % fake clicks
Bring the worst-performing placements, high fake share and little safe traffic, to the top.
3
Exclude in one click
Toggle the placement off to stop future spend there; it does not retroactively credit past clicks.
What placement control gives you
Quality per placement
Every website, app or property is scored by its share of legitimate versus suspicious traffic.
One-click exclusion
Toggle Is_Excluded on to stop serving on a low-quality placement, and off again to undo it.
Budget on real traffic
Cutting placements that are mostly fake clicks keeps spend on properties that actually convert.
Reversible, low-risk control
Excluding a placement is a toggle, not a permanent change, so you can cut a suspicious property and reinstate it later if its quality improves.
Covers the inventory platforms hide
See performance on in-app and search-partner properties that native reports often summarise away, so nothing drains budget unseen.
See Search Partner placements too
ClickPatrol surfaces the Search Partner and app placements Google reports only in aggregate, so nothing hides from your review.
The cost of click fraud adds up fast.
If 15% of your traffic is invalid, roughly €15 of every €100 you spend is wasted before a real prospect ever sees your ad. On a €10,000/month budget that is €1,500 going straight to bots, competitors and scrapers.
Every invalid click ClickPatrol™ blocks keeps more budget available for real prospects who can actually convert.

Frequently asked questions
Any website domain, mobile app or property where your ads generate clicks, including Google Display Network sites, in-app inventory and search-partner websites.
Sort by % Fake Clicks. Placements with a high fake share and little or no safe traffic are the strongest candidates; placements that are mostly legitimate are best left active.
No. Exclusion prevents future spend on that placement but does not retroactively credit past clicks. Google invalid-activity credits are handled separately.
Some Search Partner sites don't support third-party tracking templates, so those clicks bypass ClickPatrol, typically a 4-8% difference. Call and asset interactions that never reach your site also aren't tracked.
There is no fixed number. Sort by % Fake Clicks and exclude the properties with a high fake share and little safe traffic; leave placements that are mostly legitimate active so you keep genuine reach.
It mainly affects Display, Performance Max and Search Partner inventory where placements vary. Core Search results are handled through IP and audience-level protection rather than placement toggles.
