    Hello,

    I guess most of you have access to the stat of your directory.

    In one of my directory I get 98% of all the traffic from direct access (meaning someone type the site url) This is quite strange. Althought this directory is srong still it is not that famous that 300 people a day would like to go there and check what's new.

    Any idea?

    install google analytics, that may help. awstats is good but inaccurate sometimes.

    If your directory is free then it's normal.

    "Maybe you have a free directory and lot of auto-submitters are in action!" - That is the likely answer. Or maybe it is some robots of some sort.
