I'm getting a lot of hits to my site from my sites link: (link:http://www.nixdesign.com.au) at Google recently.

Can anyone explain why this would be happening all of a sudden?

Thanks

Nicole

Maybe I wasn't explaining myself properly?

All of a sudden I'm receiving a lot of website visitors from "link:http://www.nixdesign.com.au" in Google.

My question is, how could this be? Why aren't they coming from the links that appear when "link:http://www.nixdesign.com.au" is typed into Google?

It seems people are typing in link:http://www.nixdesign.com.au into Google to see what other links might be linking to your website?

Hi Corey,

Indeed it does, but I find it strange that this would only be showing up now after I did it for the first time myself just last week.

I did it once only to see what came up, and from then on I'm getting several hits a day from this.

I see what you mean now. Maybe a coincidence? Or possible that you might have some spyware on your system and some bot is doing it.

To test for a bot, try this:

link:http://www.nixdesign.com.au/index.html

And see if the same thing happens to that query.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for that. I typed that in and now a few hours later I'm getting hite from that link also. So, Obviously I have a bot?

I have Google Analytics installed on this site, is that what is doing it do you think?

If so is that a problem or not?

Thanks

Nicole

You might download HiJack this - a free spyware removal kit and go to http://www.techhelpforum.com/ - they have some experienced users that should be able to help you out.

As far as I know Google Analytics should not cause this
