I'm struggling to stop invalid traffic that comes to my website at a specific time every day. It's happened so frequently that this is the 2nd time Adsense has limited my ads. I have no clue who's sending it. Probably a competitor.

any chance I could make it stop?
 
check ur analytics. I remember there was this one site(I forgot) and I had to exclude them for bringing me invalid traffic I just blocked them. Also never use facebook ads
 
You can use a click limiter in the ads (there is a plugin for that), that is to say limit for a time (the one you want) the times that a user clicks on an ad, so that your adsense is not limited.
 
You can use AdSense Invalid Click Protector (AICP) Plugin to Set maximum ad click limit · Block any visitor if he exceeds the mentioned click limit · Ban some countries from seeing the ads on your site ·
 
If the traffic comes from a certain domain(i.e referral traffic) block all traffic from the domain, if it's a certain IP do the same.

I don't think there are other ways to block such traffic. I also faced same issue sometimes in the past but just left it after a while it stopped. You might not be lucky as I was, so act now before Adsense does the unthinkable
 
Filter and block spam IP address or use CloudFlare.

Good luck!!!

How did you block the site?

There are no invalid clicks, just fake views

How do you go about finding this? I tried looking at my analytics and couldn't tell the source.

I couldn't figure out how to set this up. Do I have to get the premium version?
