Can anyone shed light on what these external links to my website my indicate? (These links are shown in my AWStats log)

I've never visited any of these sites and my simple website doesn't relate to them in any way. What's going on here? |

Panhandler, do you advertise with AdWords ? If so, you can inform Google that publisher pub-8082489731699896 and pub-0068330130976225 (and probably many more) are abusing the Google Adwords system. They're creating fake 'valuable' portals, that lure visitors from search engines to them, forcing them to click on the Adwords ads.
SingingFish is a search engine (at least, it looks like it) so perhaps that traffic is genuine. (http://search.singingfish.com/sfw/home.jsp) |

No, no advertising is done with AdWords. I don't know what to make of it. . .but will keep watch.

Nothing short of odd...all I can imagine looking at those sites is that they're really just trawling for phrases in order to catch stray searches before directing the searchers through to advertising sites. In that case, you're not special, just a bunch of potential keyphrases for a commission-link search engine/adware-type tool. |
