A method for generating or determining data sources useful for detecting non-conforming behavior associated with pay-per-click advertising in a keyword searching environment includes: a) observing behavior associated with the pay-per-click advertising, b) predicting behavior associated with the observed behavior, and c) comparing the observed behavior to the predicted behavior to identify unexpected behavior associated with the pay-per-click advertising. In another embodiment, a method of monitoring behavior associated with targeted advertising in a keyword searching environment is provided. In another aspect, an apparatus for monitoring behavior associated with targeted advertising in a keyword searching environment includes: at least one observed behavior model, at least one predicted behavior model, and at least one comparator logic process to identify non-confirming behavior associated with the targeted advertising.
