    Hi All,

    I know next to nothing about autosurf programs, but from my analytics I see my sites being hit by them. I have never signed up for these as they are (IMO) useless traffic. The question is:

    Could someone else add my sites to a program like this without my knowledge?

    We have a fairly large network of independent sites, 400-500, which take data from our db including our copyright notice and URL.

    If you have some sort of GPT site then it may make people use them methods to get referrals. Personally this traffic is useless and can actually damage your business if you use ad providers that pay on a CPM basis as they will be having useless traffic from you.
