7Search: question about blocking traffic sources

shimmi · 01-23-2012, 03:59 PM

Hey guys. I've recently been using the SubID blocking feature and i was wondering how can i identify traffic that's coming from a parked domain? Most of the IDs that i see are just numbers, however some of them have words. One that stands out is 'domaingateway'. What exactly does that mean?

Sounds like you are seeing the subids but the words you refer to appear to be the exact domain. I believe.

I've blocked that one completely from one of my accounts, it was a lot of "click free" traffic coming in which is basically blind traffic.
