Tampa, Florida -- It is enough of a challenge to keep up with the daily maintenance of a business web site, but dealing with click fraud is an added challenge that most webmasters struggle to deal with -- now there is help.

ClickReport is a completely free, independent and unbiased pay-per-click (PPC) auditing solution designed to identify if a web site is the victim of fraudulent clicks on their PPC advertising campaigns.

ClickReport reports exactly who has clicked on any pay per click advertisement, and details the IP address, keyword used, and cookie or user session together with a date and time stamp.

"Webmasters have to keep up with the competition," said Robert Ward, president of the company. "And, keeping up with fraudulent behavior and tackling it, is part of the job."

ClickReport provides clients with a daily E-mail that details their PPC activity. In addition, they can log into their account, 24 hours per day, seven days per week, to view real-time information for all their PPC campaigns.

The web site offers an array of services that allows webmasters to view this information at-a-glance. ClickReport compiles statistics every time a user clicks on a client's advertisement. ClickReport uses these statistics to generate meaningful reports on traffic generated by an advertisement.

Currently, the following information is provided in the daily reports: IP address; cookie ID and session ID; referring search engine; keywords used; URL tag; warning level; date and time.

"Our service can also provide valuable information to webmasters so they can analyze PPC advertising campaigns," Ward explained. "Webmasters can take the information in each report and analyze the keywords used by visitors. This provides the advantage of being able to modify ad campaigns to maximize the click-through rate."
