OK, all of a sudden a googl analytics acct is getting clicks for kws such as:

legacy bracelets
postal service
a popular fox tv show]
and other far unrelated terms

and this site is in a defined medical niche only so this should never happen.

it is not just 1 or 2 clicks, it is moving up from 3 or 4 kw traffic BLs early in the month to 25+ now.

all I can think of is false spammy text links? they may have hired someone else too for seo work but just wondering

    Have you done a site search to see if any of these terms appear on your site?

    did a site search and nothing; GA shows kw source to be where the site is located
    wait a minute..,,they did have a lot of domains and mentioned to be redirecting them; maybe they threw unrelated text links on those and redirected.

    1-21-2010; it is getting worse any suggestions now have google organic kws with casino, part time job, a car dealership, delta airlines, movies, song lyrics and this site is about reproductive issues, roommates, dick clark,
    update: 2--2-2010.. chicken enchiladas, a soap opera, houses for rent and so much more

    Have you checked through Googles Webmaster tools and looked at the "labs" tab to see if someone has installed malware on your site?
