For a project I invested a very small sum to see whether linkedin ads would be beneficial. What I'm seeing in the logs is, to put it mildly, confusing. Plenty of referrers from completely unrelated and spammy looking sites, plus *a lot* of example.com. I very much doubt that example.com shares my linkedin post. (TBH it looks like a lot of fraud.) Is anyone familiar with this kind of stuff? Does anyone really understand how these ad ecosystems work, and am I basically paying for bot traffic?
