Default 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

http://phentermine-a-pres cription.blogspot.com
http://airline--ticke ts1.blogspot.com
http://payday--lo ans-1.blogspot.com
http://fioricet--ok.blog spot.com

Anyone else seeing this happen on their sites?

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.
