What Is a “No-Interaction Session” and Why It Signals Click Fraud

What Is a “No-Interaction Session” and Why It Signals Click Fraud

27.05.2025 17

A no-interaction session is when a visitor lands on your site and does absolutely nothing — no scrolling, no clicking, no pageviews. This is one of the strongest signs of click fraud.

What it looks like:

  • 0–3 second session duration;
  • single pageview only;
  • zero interaction (no scroll, no hover, no click);
  • visitor disappears instantly.

Why it’s harmful:

  • lowers engagement scores;
  • distorts analytics data;
  • Google Ads may downgrade your ad’s relevance;
  • you’re paying for worthless traffic.

How to respond:

  • enable AntiClick to detect and flag no-interaction sessions;
  • block IPs that repeatedly produce them;
  • review referrers, geolocation, and device patterns;
  • adjust Smart Bidding strategies to avoid poor traffic quality.
