I was checking my analytic plugin and it was set for "today" and "pages" in the drop down menus at the top of the plug in. . It shows a list of 9 pages, but only 2 of them are mine, and most of them are porn sites. I could see this in the "referral" otpion, but doesn't "pages" mean the pages that actually make up the website?

    This is an old stats spoofing trick.

    Webmasters do this as a way to try and get traffic to their sites.

    They hope that people will see it in their stat logs and then visit their site.

    Honestly, I wasn't even aware that people are still using this technique

    So, is it affecting my site in any way?
