Garbage submissions on your contact, demo, or signup forms. SEO backlink injection, phishing recon, crypto pitches, and the occasional wall of Cyrillic. Usually automated, sometimes outsourced.

See how TrafficValidator detects thisBot Traffic
Visits to a website generated by software rather than a person clicking around. Some bots are fine (Googlebot, Bingbot). Others scrape your pricing pages, pound your forms, or burn through ad budget a penny at a time.
Honeypot Field
A hidden input that humans never see or touch. If something fills it in, you know a bot walked in the front door. Catches lazy scrapers. Stops almost nothing sophisticated.
Velocity Tracking
Watching how fast submissions pile up from the same IP, device, or email pattern. Forty signups in ninety seconds from one /24 block is not your newsletter going viral.
TrafficValidator scores every lead in real time across 30+ signals including form spam detection.
