Hello, I'm running multiple campaigns on multiple Google Ads account but they all make almost no sales regardless of how many clicks they make. I've been tracking these visits with Statcounter and often times they come from obscure ISP's and all of those visits last less than 5 seconds. Does anyone know why this is happening so often and how to stop it?
Spam clicks on my campaign

do you run search campaign or display ads campaign? it's the best to run search campaign, and exlude the search partner network
I run it on Google search i think

You don’t know what you run, and you are using statcounter… you are clearly clueless of what you are doing

Do you have sales on other traffic sources using that landing/offer?

Be careful as i read people use bots to ruin your daily budget but i am not sure about it
100% see this a lot and depending on the geo too. Which geos are you running? casino/sports etc?
Yes its regular issue , if your competitor is also running such cMpaignhe might clicks your ads or bots too,
What i would suggest you is use a cloaker or plugin if you are using wordpress , and block that perticular ip from where your ads are clicking.

A helpful pointer in the right direction might be useful... what's the issue with statcounter?
It seems to me the country I target (if that's what "geo" means, I'm not here a lot idk your lingo) does make a difference yes. I'm trying different niches, and it seems like the issue persists. What I'm going to do is start targeting the countries where this doesn't happen instead.
Honestly I don't think it's the competitors doing it. I have a hunch it might be google itself perhaps, I don't think I'm a big target for competitors or that they're THAT quick to find my ad. I'm not on wordpress, I don't know how to block IP's but I will try to figure it out. Thanks
I don't have other traffic sources for now
