HitBot Alert Software
by TRU
Finding a hitbot trade without the aid of software can be
difficult but once you’ve been mopped a few times you can
start to see the trends of cheating trades but its still a
waste of time that can be used doing something productive.
I’ve had members of the Ebony Traffic board contact me in
that past to ask about why their trades are going south and
nine times out of ten I’ll see a trade in their stats that
is shady.
This software has saved me a lot of time when it comes to
finding bad trades. It’s simple and easy to use it measures
the percentage of proxy hits of your incoming traffic and
show the counts for Raws, Uniques, Proxy, Foreign, Foreign
Ratio and Proxy Ratio for the domains that are sending you
traffic. It really helps in keeping your trades healthy.
I’ve gotten a few of my trades tossed a few times and I was
able to recover because it detected them before things got
out of hand. Once I got my trades stable I stopped accepting
new trades because of the damage a bad trade can cause.
Since I have been using this software when a trade comes
along that I’m interested in I can start a new trade and just
keep an eye on the anti hitbot script which saves a lot of
time. When you have a bad trade in your group it’s like having
a parasite. It looks like the best trade in the world by
sending you a steady stream of traffic with a nice amount
of hits. To someone inexperienced in the trading game it
looks like gold and the start sending as much traffic as they
can to this trade in order to get more in return. What is
really happening is that you are sending the cheating trade
your good traffic in exchange for shit traffic and you are
passing your other trades the shit traffic in exchange for
their good traffic. As a result of this you’re good trades
will see your trade as a poor unproductive trade and the script
on their end will compensate for this by eliminating or greatly
reducing the amount of traffic sent to you.
The script requires a mysql database which is available on
almost all dedicated and virtual servers
The script is free and can be downloaded by clicking this
