Does this mean someone is hacking my site?

Normally my website gets around 900 pageviews per day. Yesterday it got 12,000.

My site is an affiliate site, and my sales were the same as they've been (crappy)...

The fishy thing is that the majority of the 12,000 views were directed to a page that doesn't exist on my website.

The name of the pages were:

/?dwaff=1941410
/?esaff=5159191571
/?bitaff=41294810248

These pages don't exist.... but had thousands of views... so what the hell is going on?:confused:

    Perhaps it's one of your friends at that B1ackHat-forum where you posted the same question who is trying to hack you? lol

    Can you see where the requests are coming from?

    Different IP's or the same?
    Different location (geo ip) or the same?

    ...and so on please give us some more information.

    strangely enough, a website in China completely stole my website, content, design, everything, but changed about half the affiliate links and did not change many other links, sending thousands of worthless traffic to my website.

    The other strange thing is other new site referrers are showing up, and they're from pages that don't exist, such as www.curehealth.net/referrer and others.

    I don't get it.. ?
