- blackhatbootcamp dot com 493 493 I have 493 hits from this website. I also had about 200 hits from another site that talked about cheap medication. I searched the site completely and didn't find any backlinks or accidental linking. How in the hell am I getting this traffic? Is this some sort of scam to get me to visit their site? BTW I think this is the area where I post stuff like this. Awstats is a tool...
Hi, You do not get real traffic from these websites. They are referrer spammers. They use a robot that send one or more requests to your site just to appear in your stats in the hope that you will visit them and/or that you will republish the link like in your first post of this topic and/or that your stats are public giving them a free backlink.

Hmmm well I just edited it so thats no backlink only visits now. It's annoying I figured as much. It messes with my statistics I wish there was a way to stop it. Doesn't this count towards spam laws? I can sue them eventually can't I?
My Aw(e damn!)stats on HG have been going batnuts insane. I've had three days where all accounts across all sites say 0 0 0 0 for everything. But, Web(breath)alizer is showing stats. So, I've gone to google analytics (yes, foot of every page)- but its showing nowhere near what both webalizer and awstats show for visits, and such. It's such a bloody mess to get some regular and easy stats.
I had that problem and it was due to my server. First off they didn't update or something like that. Then they said they have this problem where they need to update manually. So my stats were updated once every 24 hours. On my new server they're updated once every 6-10 hours. Submit a support question to your host and ask about why awstats isn't updating.
