    I am not sure if you can report someone sending traffic to you. Did you purchase traffic? Often times, the places that sell traffic send it from porn sites but because it is easy to trick porn surfers by creating false links. I would look into doing what boron suggested and ban the IP. I would also check the site that sent you the traffic and see if they have a link to your site on their site.

    Contact the webmaster and tell them to remove your site from their links. It may be that one of your competitors added it to discredit your site. Be polite but to the point and refer to the fact that you are willing to take legal action of your link remains. Most webmaster will be happy to remove it.

    Are you sure that you did not pay for traffic or pay someone to build links for you?

    When I first started doing web pages, I paid $20 for 100,000 visitors and they all came from porn sites. That is one reason I do not try to buy traffic or link building, I try to do it all myself.

    It is a general rule that a link of your site on a "bad site" can't harm your site in any way. Othervise many site owners would use this to harm others.

    You can't stop sites from linking to you. They are probably scraping some of your content or hoping that the link ranks higher for some keywords than your site, so, they can steal some of your traffic.

    Your link on a bad site doesnt harm you but if you link to a bad site, it harms you. So don't panic ;)

    If a bad site links to any site and that site gets penalized then all the competitors and idiots would do this to get rid of them :rolleyes:

    If you're worried about the quality of the traffic, you can redirect the referrer in .htaccess.

    If the link isn't there, then I think it's referral spam. Just block the referrer in .htaccess

    Good luck ;).

    + Free traffic is good traffic :D.

    You cant stop other sites to link on your site. Cant do anything about that. (might there is, like by sending them an email about your request to remove your link) it is just a waste of your time. IMO, correct me if i am wrong. As they mentioned on the upper part as long as you don't have a link from a bad site, it will not hurt your site. unless, you have an outbound links on a bad sites.

    That's a good point. Make sure you don't link back, via a top referrer script or pingback/trackback.

    my suggestion is to not worry about it, it won't make any difference to Google.

    Does the link rank higher than you for some of your keywords?

    google won't penalize you, just because you have a link on a porn website.

    You can actually harm a site by linking to it, i wont go in to it but OP i wouldnt worry in this case. As mentioned block the referer in .htaccess if you dont want this sort of traffic.
