What traffic sources are disallowed by ClickMagick?
ClickMagick receives clicks from traffic sources and redirects those clicks to “content,” such as websites, downloads, videos, etc. To prevent fraud and scams, ClickMagick disallows both fraudulent traffic sources and malicious or otherwise unacceptable content.
Here, we’re going to cover the types of fraudulent traffic that ClickMagick does not allow. If you want to learn more about the types of questionable content that ClickMagick does not allow you to target, you’ll want to read this FAQ:

|  | What types of targeted content does ClickMagick disallow?

ClickMagick does not allow traffic from adult sites, bulk SMS advertising, “auto surf” traffic exchanges, Pay-Per-View ad networks, or clicks from other bulk traffic sites.
Generally speaking, if you’re paying less than a few pennies per click then you’re almost certainly dealing with some type of bulk traffic that you’re not allowed to track with ClickMagick. If in doubt just reach out and ask us at our 1-Hour Support desk.

Why can’t I track this traffic with ClickMagick?
We’ve logged MASSIVE amounts of fake clicks from these types of sites, and we simply don’t want this type of traffic associated with ClickMagick in any way.
We’re not saying these sites are purposely selling fake traffic. Perhaps they’re just unable to control the fraud.
Either way, fake traffic is a huge waste of resources and it causes lots of problems for our users.
Just as the major autoresponder services don’t allow sending spam, ClickMagick does not allow clicks from services that have been found to generate enormous numbers of fake clicks.
Other similar sites will be added to the list if they abuse the ClickMagick platform or generate a substantial number of fake clicks to our users.
What happens if my account gets this type of traffic?
If it’s just a few clicks here and there, then nothing.
But if you send a bunch of this type of traffic to a ClickMagick tracking link or rotator, the link or rotator in question will be “paused” for one hour, during which time it will not process any clicks. After one hour the affected link or rotator will resume tracking again as normal.
If you have multiple tracking links or rotators receiving this type of traffic or your account as a whole is receiving too much of this type of traffic, we will contact you and ask you stop this traffic in order to keep your account in good standing.
Please note that for security purposes we can’t tell you exactly what will trigger your links to be paused, but it takes thousands of clicks from these disallowed sources in a short period of time so it’s not something you have to worry about happening “accidentally.”
What should I use to track this type of traffic?
It’s difficult to effectively track this type of extremely low-value, bulk traffic when you’re using a web-based click tracker like ClickMagick. This traffic can literally cost more to track than it’s worth.
If you’re set on a web-based solution you might want to check out a “specialty” tracker like Voluum.com, which will run you anywhere from \$100 to \$1,000 a month.
Normally, though, you’ll want to use your own tracking system on your own hosting account where you don’t have a per-click cost for tracking.
We’ve heard that a lot of people use CPVLab.com for tracking PPV ads so you might want to check that out.
