Suspicious Leads

    Hello All,

    I am running Google Adwords campaign and generating my conversions through leads. There is one simple form to fill. But now days I am feeling that I am getting fake leads. When I contact to Google support they said "We have found that many submissions are generated by automated programs that crawl the web to insert links and keyword pertaining to a website." And they also said that through you weblogs, you will be able to track IP's so that repetitive and suspicious IP's can be block. Anybody can tell me apart from this activity what measures I can take? I want quality leads. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    try changing the landing page

    example

    mysite.com/landingpage.html

    to

    mysite.com/landingpage1.html


    you can also try installing form validation scripts

    or

    install captcha if its a really big issue
