I thought I cleared this up on Reddit for you man.

Here is the Reddit post, just to make sure that you got it.

"All right, here is a copy and paste from the developer of CoinUrl:
There are 2 banners registered in system (728x90 and 468x60) with a click price 0.0001 BTC, 17+12 clicks were registered, 14 of them were rejected by antifraud and money were returned. Other clicks are registered as normal, if you have complaints -- please, send IPs to support and we will return money for ALL fraud clicks.

There was no geo or language targeting set, the price was the lowest in our system, so these banners were shown only for unpopular countries like Indonesia, Vietnam, India. Mover, they were shown only on low-quality sites, because high-quality sites set minimal click price to 0.3-0.4 mBTC so this advertiser could not be shown there.

We recommend for our advertiser to stop such campaign, set geo targeting correctly and set higher click price.
In case of any fraud activity we recommend to send messages to support. Our company always return money to advertisers."


Oh I didn't notice the Reddit reply. Actually the ads weren't placed by my banners, my banner seemed to be ok, but those problem ad stats were from a investors who bought his own ad linked to his referral link.

Your site only really has one page to it so a user isn't going to browse it, which is what bounce rate means. It would be high for a one page web site as your site is. Do you have the amount of time a user from coinurl stays on your site, that would be probably better view of what a user is doing  from coinurl.

actually if you compare with the bitcointalk users, they would visit on average 4.9 pages per visit where coinurl visit 1. investment, deposit, referral are all on different pages. Bitcoin talk also only bounce 60% where coinurl is like 100% bounce. the 00:00:00 is the average time coinurl users stays on the website (which is almost impossible if you are human to click back button immediately). compare to 9 minutes on average from bitcointalk users.

I'd say bot or bypass script

It can't be possible that 100% of the user from coinurl are on bypass script.
