Default fake traffic via rss

Hi,

I run a tech blog and check its traffic sources through analytics almost daily.
I have noticed that from few days a constant number of visits are coming through rss feed. the number is fixed and does not change... has anyone ever faced the similar problem?? is it the bots trying to spam my website or sumthin else??

It may be fake for sure. I have noticed such kind of fake downloads for my product from a specified source or country. Check how many minutes such users stay in the website, bounce rate, navigation summary using google analytics. Then you can surely find whether it is fake or not. I hope it helps

Completely agree with the previous post! I faced such a problem and did everything from the list mentioned. The traffix appeared to be false.
