    I am getting almost 30% foriegn clicks with my PPC campaigns (yahoo mainly) when I selected (geo targeted) USA traffic only.
    The affiliate program I am promoting only pays for USA leads and I cant figure out why I am still getting non USA traffic.
    I thought maybe it was from content network clicks but its not showing any content clicks.

    Any recommendations on how to change this problem as I am wasting a bunch of money right now on clicks that cant earn me anything.

    I use adwords, msn and yahoo. But with this particular campaign I am getting mainly Yahoo PPC traffic. But too much of it is foreign traffic. This is what I am trying to figure out.

    I had the same problem with Adwords.

    I was getting a lot of TURKEY traffic when i was targeting only USA and UK
