My First Bot Journey

[pentatonicfunk]

so i bought 3 domain, and park this domain (not selling it).

after that i made a bot (using capybara and selenium using headless firefox)

what my bot do :

1. Find Proxy (Random)
2. Random My Url (from my 3 domain)
3. Random Valid User Agent
4. Start Firefox in Selenium
5. Visit URL
6. Find Ads, and click it
7. Unlimited Loop this action

it was all done in vps server, not in my computer, and it all done in background

whis me luck, and what do you think about it ?

Good luck with your journey. I wish you luck.

 

[arganrecords]

I think you're crazy but the world needs people as you! Good luck mate, hope you can do it for few hours before getting banned.

 

[nikchaing]

yea OP good luck! you don't really have much to loose, let us know how it goes

 

[pentatonicfunk]

I think you're crazy but the world needs people as you! Good luck mate, hope you can do it for few hours before getting banned.

yes i think, about getting banned. but i'm using proxy(random pick) and valid user agent(random), do you think it's still getting banned ?

 

[pentatonicfunk]

its my current stats, it's not yet counted, i hope it will

Interesting.
I also made a bot which is partially made with selenium, but i drive it with python.

lol
all ad company have the checker to check, whether traffic comes from a proxy or a original ip, they can easily detect that, so those false click would not work
its old time.
even you can try with PPI type imagehosting sites like imagetwist $3-$5 / 1000 view
they also would not cunt proxies, I guess
still you can try, using image host is better option than using your own site clicks

You are crazy OP, you are going to get banned

 

[pentatonicfunk]

is it making money ? or just get banned ?

sohom

yeah i start to doubt my bot, hehe
but anyway, i will continue to run it, and see the result
nothing to lose, and better tried it, so i know what is the limitation

anyway, i add my url grab to my shortener links, hope it will make some

 

[SlimProxies]

You'll get banned. Also it is fraud.

 

[Gabriel in Pocket]

You have 10 years late ... And don't use bodis you have no chance to win 1 cent.

 

[markmin]

Look interesting.. Will bookmark this thread.

Click fraud is so protected against these days that I doubt making a simple bot such as that would actually be profitable. Maybe try buying traffic. There are some sellers whose traffic looks real enough to pass.

 

[pentatonicfunk]

Update
so on June 4th its on $0.57, but next day its become 0.01, although it has more visitor and more click, i think it's because im not updating my proxy list,

here are the traffic country list report


here my adf*ly stats

but in country stats, my traffic detected as proxy, i just can't bugfix it, someday maybe ...

 

[janinaherz3]

It is likely to get banned.

 

[clpride]

LMAO Statistically speaking nobody can get 100% click through rates. That's an automatic red flag there. I have little experience in this area, but I would think staying in the 3%-5% CTR range, which is a little above average, might keep you from getting banned. However, they'll probably catch on if you're recycling the same proxies over and over...

 

[KeijoKala]

Yeah, like everyone have said you'll end up gettin banned. You should use your time and energy viser. Now you know you can create a bot, so do differend kind of automation tool and you can bank. Something more legal in eyes of advertisers...
