Unidentifiable visitors

    I have a friend who tells me he is getting 1000 visitors a day from a site
    www .nissaneurope.com but he can't tell if they are 'real' visitors.

    The ads on that site - are they google ads? is the whole site google ads? And how could it generate 1000 visitors a day for someone they don't know?

    There doesn't seem to be any mention at all of my friends site on this site.
    Any clues or explanations welcome

    Its not a website first of all, what he has done is just parked his domain @ http://www.hitfarm.com/ ! And hit fram places related keyword ads from google for the website title he had provided.

    You can see more information @ http://www.hitfarm.com/index.php?action=step1

    You can view his traffic details @ http://www.alexa.com/data/details/main?q=&url=www.nissaneurope.com and verify if what he told you was right.

    I think his traffic might be becuase of http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=nissan+europe&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

    And some keywords related with "Nissan, NISSAN, Nissan Europe, Nissan corporate, Nissan events, Nissan activities, Nissan brand, Nissan brochure, Nissan test"

    Cheers,

    Thanks for that explanation DreamChaser.

    It's all a bit confusing! nissaneurope is not my friend's site - his site is about travel - but his stats show that nissaneurope is sending the 1000 visitors a day to his site. As far as I know he doesn't even run AdWords, certainly not nissan related ones in any case.

    On a separate point, I would have thought it infringed nissan trademark to run ads on that site?
