How do you know they are coming via coop?

 

I'm betting he's full of shit... probably those are his sites and he's just trying to get some cheap traffic ... LAME.

 

Looks like log spam to me...which has nothing to do with the coop.

Do you actually see the coop running on any of those sites?

 

I think he is just ignorant and is blaming the coop for referral spam

 

Smryl, (or someone)

Can you give me a "layman's" explanation of "referrer spam" please?

Why is it done?
Where in my stats can would I see it? Regular webalizer/awstats or RAW LOGS?
I see it can stopped via .htaccess.

Thanks,
Mike

 

Thanks Shannon (my only sister is a Shannon) ;-)

HOW do they "introduce" their spam/links into OUR stats?

Thanks again,
Mike

 

I guess some people have NOTHING better to do with their lives and time?

Thanks Shannon,
Merry Christmas.

OK, I guess it's referrer spam, nevermind. Thanks for the info, I was worried that my efforts to get some backlinks for the site using the co-op were wasted. Since I haven't used anything but this site to do that I thought they were the only backlinks I was getting.

 

for shannon:
Referrer spam is just too easy, if you really want to know how it is done:

connect to any web server on port 80 (telnet www.server.com 80)
and enter

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: www.server.com:80
XXXXXX: http://www.this.is.a.great.site.com/

Code (markup):

and whoopy! all the stupid statistic programs pick up on that and list the this.is.a.great.site.com as a 'back link'.

Now all you have to do is write a script that does this the entire day, to random websites and sooner or later you will get traffic.



@edit: XXXXX should be something else ofcourse

 

You can also set a useragent in your browser and surf around normally.....
