How to Identify Real Users Among Bot Noise

How to Identify Real Users Among Bot Noise

13.06.2025 2

In a flood of fake traffic, your most valuable insight is: who’s actually interested in your product. One real customer is worth more than 100 bots. But how do you find them?

Signs of a real user:

  • stays longer: sessions > 30 seconds;
  • explores: views 2+ pages;
  • engages: scrolls, clicks, reads;
  • returns: comes back to your site;
  • responds: fills forms, reads blog, downloads content.

Signs of bot noise:

  • session < 5 seconds;
  • single pageview, no actions;
  • same resolution and user-agent;
  • traffic spike from one IP range;
  • strange browser language or location.

How to focus on real people:

  1. Use AntiClick to track behavior.
  2. Exclude sessions with no interaction.
  3. Target ad spend on segments that convert.
  4. Base decisions on verified, clean traffic data.
