Unusual traffic on one of the ads

    I have an ad on my classifieds that is producing an enormous amount of visits. I personally do not think they are real:

    http://qwikad.com/124/posts/6-Services/170-Small-Business/114811-Sewing-By-Nelli.html

    On average a paid ad (similar to this one) will get about 2000-4000 real hits during the same duration.

    I looked at the source code of the ad and the images in it are hosted by http://www.use.com/

    Can somebody tell me what is going on and why this ad is getting so many hits?

    Any input would be appreciated.

    No idea @qwikad.com

    Do you have any ability to see where those hits are coming from? Source? Location?

    Brent is right. Can you track the source of those clicks?

    I probably could and should. I thought maybe somebody can confirm that images stored on use.com can create impressions or something.

    The thing is we only register unique clicks, so it can't be just a simple reloading of that ad.

    I guess, I am going to add Google analytics just for that ad to see what's going on.
