Hey, I'm running ads on Google, but the problem is I'm getting lots of clicks which are not relevant and that will lead to increase in CTR.

I have also blocked IP Address in Google ads but I am getting clicks from those IP Addresses

Good points. I would add that Google has a serious scam problem with their "ads" system. On YouTube I regularly get silly ads like "you won this big box of samples, just fill out our form with your personal data" or that silly app that claims it makes my phone flashlight project video onto walls.

I, myself, don't trust anything advertised by Google.

I looked into Google Ads but the way they wanted me to bid against other ads for top placement let me know right away it was going to be a very expensive game.
