What do you dislike about ClickGUARD?
I tried the protection service for 7 months on 12 campaigns and 4 domains
On all it did not give any benefit.
The number of clicks that clickguard gave as "protecetd" was always higher than the number of clicks that adwords invoiced, no reimbursement was ever made by google, but above all, the cost per conversion had no noticeable change.
I would therefore say that, like Clickcease, which I tried for 6 months, even clickcease does not give any sensitive results.
If the protection that is given for blocked IPs because they do not make conversions, or something else, the cost you pay for the service does not compensate for the "maybe" fraudulent clicks blocked.
I checked with adwords support for some IP blocked by ClickGuard to verify if google billed or not, the clicks coming from the ip identified as fraudulent and blocked, as suspicious.
Google has confirmed that they have not been billed.
Conclusion the protection can only be done by setting some parameters on adwords such as filtering zones and rules for the times of clicks, for now nothing else seems to give results.
I hope in the future these services will become functional in some way.
