Megaglobe Leads the Way Against Click Fraud

August 3, 2006 - - (mmdnewswire) - - In the wake of talks by new search engine Megaglobe to eliminate the problem of click fraud, rival search engines are finally following suite.

In January 2006, Megaglobe CEO, Naima Moore, publicly announced the company’s intention to implement tools to detect and eradicate click fraud. Since this time, some of the major search engines have begun to incorporate similar tools into their sponsored listings.

“We’re glad to see such trends arising because it creates a more cost effective environment for online advertisers, but we’re not convinced that enough is really being done to correct this problem. With the upcoming launch of Megaglobe, advertisers will truly experience what return on investment means. “ says Naima Moore.

Megaglobe technicians have been working on click fraud detection tools since January 2006. Until recently, this issue has been ignored by other search engines and has cost online advertisers billions of dollars in fraudulent clicks.

A failure to accurately identify the source of clicks is blamed for the click fraud epidemic, a problem that has mushroomed into a crisis in recent years with sophisticated operations using proxy servers and software to mimic clients’ clicks.

Defined as the fraudulent practice of clicking into another company’s online advertisement to generate false charges, click fraud is estimated by industry experts to account for up to 30% of all pay-per-click online advertising costs.

While some search engines have been slow to act against the problem, Megaglobe is leading the way against click fraud with its groundbreaking “click detection” technology, which will be able to recognize unwarranted clicks.

“Our technology will identify the validity of each click and bill the advertisers accordingly”, says Naima Moore. “Advertisers will then be able to see the number of clicks that they have received from their ads and will only be charged for legitimate clicks.”

“Megaglobe Ads sponsored listings will be available worldwide in 50 currencies and will accommodate any advertising budget. With a minimum pay-per-click rate of around 0.10 cents USD, we hope to open the door for small, medium and large businesses alike throughout the world.” says Megaglobe’s CEO.

“Megaglobe will certainly give a voice to those who have been ignored lately,” she said.
