Hello. One of my niche websites has seen a ridiculous spike in traffic recently. I'm talking about less than 50 pageviews a day to suddenly 15,000 pageviews per day for the past few weeks. I'm not sure why. Normally this would be a good thing but I'm worried because the majority of the traffic seems to be coming from weird dot com sites that my anti-virus software is warning me are bad. My biggest concern is Google may think I've done something to automatically generate traffic or something and will disable my Adsense account. What's going on? Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

    Pls check with your web host company and take a support from them. If it comes from the particlular IP or IP range you can block them....

      Thanks for the advice! I did exactly as you said and my hosting company said all the traffic appeared to be coming from the same IP address, which they have now blocked.
