Is RollerAds traffic real? How to check RollerAds traffic quality

Exclude the bad zone in RollerAds

ValidVisit ranks the bad zoneid (and feed); blacklist them in RollerAds or feed them into an auto-rule.

Where: campaign zone blacklist / auto-rules

RollerAds is a self-serve push and onclick (pop) network with a large subscriber base. It passes a {zoneid} on every click — the traffic zone/source behind it — plus a {feedid} (the subscriber feed), {campaignid} and a {clickid}. RollerAds itself recommends adding the feed id to optimise, and both zone and feed are units you can blacklist or auto-rule in the campaign. ValidVisit reads these tokens once the click lands, then judges it against 100+ independent data points — the network it arrived through, the device sitting behind it, and the way the visitor actually behaves — rolling them into one 0–100 quality score so real people clear and bots surface. The result is a per-zone, per-feed read on which units carry non-human traffic.

How invalid traffic shows up on RollerAds

RollerAds spans push (subscriber-driven) and onclick (forced-view) inventory, and the IVT patterns differ by format but both resolve to the zone/feed. On push, subscriber feeds built from incentivised or bot opt-ins click in unnaturally regular bursts aligned to send windows — that mechanical timing, weighed alongside how the visiting environment behaves, separates them from genuine subscribers and lands on the {feedid}.

On onclick, the ad fires on page entry without a deliberate click, so automated page-loaders can trigger events at scale from hosting providers or proxy networks, concentrated in specific {zoneid} values. Across both formats, when a zone's clicks consistently fall to the bottom of the 0–100 score — automation giving itself away across dozens of device and behaviour data points at once — it reads as machines rather than real users. Because {zoneid} and {feedid} ride on every click, ValidVisit attributes all of these to the individual zone or feed.

What to watch on RollerAds

Zone ({zoneid}) IVT distribution

Rank active {zoneid} values by quality and by the share of clicks landing in the suspicious/bad tier. Zones above your baseline are blacklist candidates — pair with RollerAds' auto-rules.

Feed-level push quality

RollerAds recommends tracking the {feedid}; ValidVisit scores per feed so a bot-inflated subscriber feed is isolated from a clean one.

Hosting / proxy concentration

OnClick traffic arriving through cloud or proxy infrastructure rarely converts. ValidVisit ties that pattern back to the {zoneid} so you blacklist the offending zones cleanly.

Persistently low-scoring zones

A zone whose clicks keep bottoming out across the 0–100 range points to automation — a verdict built from 100+ data points, far harder to fake than a user-agent string.

How ValidVisit attributes RollerAds traffic

Each RollerAds macro maps to a normalized parameter, so every scored click is pinned to the right campaign, creative and publisher.

Pinpoint the bot publishers & placements in RollerAds

RollerAdsitself isn’t the problem — bots and invalid traffic concentrate in a handful of its sub-sources: the publisher, site or zone, and the placement or widget within it. So we roll the score up by those RollerAds tokens, not by creative (which says nothing about whether a click was human).

Illustrative example — RollerAds traffic scored 0–100 per sub-source, worst first.

Publisher / site / zone

Bot / invalid-traffic score broken down by:

  • Zone ID {zoneid}The traffic zone / source the click came from — the unit you blacklist in the campaign.
Placement / widget

Bot / invalid-traffic score broken down by:

  • Feed ID {feedid}The subscriber-feed id (RollerAds recommends adding it for optimisation).

Per-click id: RollerAds passes a unique click id, so we also run velocity, deduplication and repeat-source checks on every click.

How the detection works

100+
Scale

Data points → one score

Every click is weighed against more than a hundred independent data points and reduced to a single, sortable 0–100 quality score.

1 verdict
Depth

Many angles, combined

Each data point is combined rather than checked in isolation, so a genuine human almost never trips enough of them to be flagged — and bots that beat one rarely beat the rest.

0–100
Model

Proprietary, not a black box

The detection model is ours and stays that way. What you get is a clear verdict on every click — not a single brittle rule you can game, and not an unexplained number you can't act on.

per source
Action

Pinned to the source

Every verdict maps to the campaign, publisher and placement that sent the click — so you know exactly which source to cut.

RollerAds traffic quality — FAQ

How do I set up ValidVisit for RollerAds?+

Add ValidVisit's script to your landing page and append RollerAds' macros — {zoneid}, {feedid}, {campaignid} and {clickid} — to your destination URL. The pixel captures them once the visitor arrives and stores a scored verdict per click, segmented by zone and feed, with nothing on the click path.

Can ValidVisit tell me which RollerAds zones to blacklist?+

Yes. Because {zoneid} (and {feedid}) is on every click, ValidVisit ranks your zones and feeds by quality and by how far each one drags the score down, and you blacklist the offenders — or feed them into RollerAds' auto-rules — in your campaign. ValidVisit reports; you apply the block.

Does ValidVisit handle both push and onclick RollerAds traffic?+

Yes. Push clicks bring subscriber-feed timing into the mix (attributed to {feedid}); onclick clicks lean more on where the traffic came from and how the device behaves (attributed to {zoneid}). Both run through the same weighing of 100+ data points to land on a clear 0–100 quality score.
