Edge Ads · Netslim Edge

You pay per click.
So not for bots.

Every click from Google Ads, TikTok or Bing reaches your site with a click ID. Netslim Edge sits in front of your site and sees that click at the server: human or bot, data center or consumer, gone after one page or on to your thank-you page. No link with Google, no cookie banner, no script in the browser.

The problem

Part of your clicks is nobody

Competitors, scrapers, click farms and bots that "view" ads: Google Ads filters out some of them, but far from all. What gets through, you simply pay for. And your conversion tracking misses a part, because without cookie consent the pixel measures nothing.

How it works

Measure where it can't be bypassed

  1. 01The edge sees the clickEvery visitor with gclid, gbraid, ttclid or msclkid in the URL is counted, per campaign and keyword from your UTMs.
  2. 02Fakes outBots, headless browsers, data centers and addresses that keep clicking are recognized. You get the IP list to paste into Google Ads.
  3. 03What it deliveredIf the visitor later lands on your thank-you page, that counts as a conversion, measured at the server. A weekly report every Monday.

  • IP exclusion listThe addresses of the fake clickers, ready to paste into Google Ads. From then on, they no longer see your ad.

Honest

Edge Ads sees what arrives at your site, not what happens in Google Ads. Impressions, click prices and search terms are in Google itself. The link with Google comes later. If Google already didn't charge you for a fake click, you see it here but you don't pay for it. And conversions only count if the visitor reaches your thank-you page: no system sees a phone call after a click.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to connect or install anything?

No. As soon as your site runs through Netslim Edge, the edge counts the clicks. Just set the URL suffix with utm_campaign, utm_content and utm_term in Google Ads. Then you see everything per campaign and keyword.

How does the edge know a click is fake?

By the address and the behavior: known bots, headless browsers and scripts, addresses from data centers (no consumers there), addresses that carried out attacks before, and addresses that click your ad again and again within an hour.

Do I get my money back from Google?

No, Google does that itself for what it considers invalid. What you can do: put the IP list in Google Ads. From that moment on, you no longer pay for those clicks. Google allows 500 addresses per campaign. We keep the list within that limit.

What does it cost?

Edge Ads costs € 49 per month per site, or € 490 per year. Measuring (clicks, fake clicks, conversions) is free on every Edge site, including during the trial. Edge Ads is already included in Edge SEO and Enterprise. Prices excl. VAT.

Does it work with TikTok and Microsoft Ads?

Yes. Anything with a click ID in the URL: Google (gclid, gbraid, wbraid), TikTok (ttclid), Microsoft (msclkid) and Meta (fbclid).
