What is FlareSolverr Patch in bot detection?

Direct Answer: FlareSolverr Patch is one of the 106 independent checks BotRefund uses to separate human visits from automated ones. It looks for shortcuts or browser remnants that automation toolkits like FlareSolverr leave behind. A normal browser does not usually create this kind of...

What is Hardware & GPU Fingerprinting in bot detection?

Direct Answer: Hardware & GPU Fingerprinting involves examining the hardware and graphics details reported by a user's device. A normal browser reports details that naturally fit together for that device. Mismatches can indicate that a virtual machine or spoofed profile is being used, which...

What is independent evidence in bot detection?

Direct Answer: Independent evidence means each signal adds one objective fact about the visit. BotRefund does not trust one signal by itself. It cross-checks that fact against other browser, network, device, and behavior data. The AI model then weighs the complete pattern to decide...

What is IP address inconsistency in bot detection?

Direct Answer: IP address inconsistency is a signal that looks for mismatches between a visitor's connection, location, language, and timing. A real browsing session usually has these facts agreeing with each other, while proxy rotation or location masking can make them disagree. BotRefund uses...

What is pixel poisoning and how does it affect my ad campaigns?

Direct Answer: Pixel poisoning happens when bots trigger conversion events on your site, causing your ad platform to optimize for fake signals. This corrupts your lookalike audiences and can spike your CPA. BotRefund prevents this by suppressing the Meta Pixel in real time when...

What is pixel poisoning and how does it affect my ad campaigns?

What is pixel poisoning and how does it affect my Meta campaigns?

Direct Answer: Pixel poisoning happens when bot sessions trigger your Meta Pixel conversion events, feeding false signals to the ad algorithm. The algorithm then optimizes toward more bot-like traffic, raising costs while real conversions decline. BotRefund suppresses pixel conversion events during bot sessions in...

What is pixel poisoning and how does it hurt my ad campaigns?

Direct Answer: Pixel poisoning happens when bots trigger conversion actions on your landing pages, which then feed your ad platform's machine learning models. The bidding engine studies those bot interactions and optimizes targeting to serve ads to similar bot profiles. This feedback loop drains...

What is pixel poisoning and how does it ruin my Google and Meta campaigns?

Direct Answer: Pixel poisoning happens when bot sessions trigger conversion pixels and train ad algorithms to target similar bot profiles. Over time the algorithm spends more budget on low-quality inventory that looks like the bot. BotRefund prevents pixel poisoning by suppressing the Google Tag,...

What is pixel poisoning and how does it ruin my return on ad spend?

Direct Answer: Pixel poisoning happens when bot sessions trigger your conversion pixel, giving the ad platform a false positive. The algorithm then optimizes for more of those bot-like profiles, which drives up spend without real sales. BotRefund prevents this by suppressing pixels on bot...

What is pixel poisoning on Meta lead campaigns and how do I prevent it?

Direct Answer: Pixel poisoning happens when low-quality or bot conversions are sent back to Meta as if they were real leads, so the algorithm learns to optimize toward more of the same junk traffic. The page recommends creating a verified-lead or qualified-lead event after...

What is proxy rotation and why does it matter for bot detection?

Direct Answer: Proxy rotation is when automated traffic switches IP addresses frequently to avoid being blocked. It can make a visitor's language, location, and network timing disagree with each other. BotRefund uses the Languages Mismatch check to capture this kind of inconsistency as evidence....

What is the Audio Latency Drift check looking for?

Direct Answer: It looks for a mismatch that a real browsing session does not normally create. Virtual machines and spoofed profiles can claim one device while their graphics, fonts, audio, or processor behavior tells another story. BotRefund uses this as one of 106 independent...

What is the benefit of having 106 independent checks instead of just one?

Direct Answer: Having 106 independent checks allows BotRefund to build a robust picture of each visit. A single signal like constant scroll speed can be misleading due to privacy tools or unusual devices. With many checks, the tool can cross-reference evidence and see if...

What is the benefit of having 106 independent checks instead of just one rule?

Direct Answer: One rule can be fooled by a bot that mimics a single behavior. BotRefund uses 106 independent checks so a verdict is based on the whole picture. Each signal adds an objective fact about the visit, and the AI model looks for...

What is the benefit of having 106 independent checks instead of just one rule?

What is the benefit of having 106 independent checks like navigation timing stubs?

Direct Answer: Having 106 independent checks means BotRefund does not rely on a single browser tell. Each check adds one objective fact about the visit. The AI weighs the complete pattern across all signals. This multi-signal approach reduces false positives and improves accuracy to...

What is the benefit of having timezone as one of 106 checks

Direct Answer: Each check adds an objective fact about the visit. The Timezone Evasion check provides evidence of proxy rotation or location masking that might otherwise go unnoticed. By including it among 106 independent signals, BotRefund can cross-check whether the timezone mismatch is supported...

What is the benefit of using 106 independent checks for bot detection?

Direct Answer: Using 106 independent checks allows BotRefund to build a comprehensive and reliable picture of whether a visit is human or automated. Each check provides a piece of objective evidence that is then cross-checked and analyzed by AI prediction. This multi-signal approach significantly...

What is the best way to audit my local PPC campaigns for bot traffic before committing to a tool?

Direct Answer: BotRefund offers a free audit that installs a lightweight detection script on your site. It will log bot sessions based on behavioral signals like mouse acceleration and hardware rendering pipelines. You can see the results and decide whether to proceed with full...

What is the best way to protect my ad campaigns from bot contamination during the first 48 hours?

Direct Answer: The first 48-72 hours are critical because the algorithm assigns heavy weight to early interactions. Installing a client-side bot detection tool like BotRefund before launching a campaign ensures that only verified human conversions are recorded, preventing the 'bot loop' that can derail...
