Lots of recent inbound "traffic" from spam blogs

Recently, a relatively new site of mine, ATV District, started getting traffic from numerous spam blogs on blogspot. I'm talking at least 15-30 spam blogs showing direct link traffic ranging between 1-3 visits. However, I look on the blogs and see no mention of my site. I have no idea why this is happening or what is going on. Anyone have any clue?

Examples of the spam blogs I'm showing traffic from are

Anyone else seeing this happen on their sites?

This is normal. Why are you worried?

It's definately annoying, but unfortunately very expected!!

My fault....I've browsed this board for a long time, but had never seen any "referral spam" threads. Guess I'm now a victim! Haven't noticed it at all on my other sites.

i guess this is how the blog makes income though.
