What is dark traffic?

When any of the below occur from adblocker users visiting your website:

Site analytics blocked (not measured in dashboard)

Ads are blocked without option to replace with whitelisted ads (e.g. Acceptable Ads)

Adblock wall gets blocked (if it’s blocked, it’s not measured)

Did you know?
Most publishers are losing
14-21% of their revenue to dark traffic.
