KeithLDick Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 I've noticed my traffic has went up nearly 500% in 2-days (I never get that much) and just now I read over at avault this.."In 24 hours, AVault has had 115 million users hitting the site with an average of 9.6 page views per user"I also read on a few other sites they are experiencing the same thing.... I think something is up with this whole thing so make sure you site is *Secure*....Cheers,Keith Quote Link to post Share on other sites

handplane Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 http://www.statcounter.com/free tool shows where visits are coming fromIs statcounter a tracking cookie?It's also detected by Ad-Aware for deletion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hey handplane. Statcounter places a cookie so that if you go to a site that has it, you will be recognized as a returning visitor. It doesn't track where you go beyond that website. Just so you know, ad-aware also flags yahoo cookies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JSKY Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Some increased traffic on my place. And I use a good stat-counter for checking on what others are looking for, to see if there is something new I can add for help tips. But it's hard to tell because of the traffic I get anyway.My hosting is well protected. So I'm not worried. And if someone does mess with my site. I can call anytime of the day. Tthey will reset it, and all I have to do is re-upload everything. Only takes a matter of min. and everything is as it was. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aluvus Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 http://www.statcounter.com/free tool shows where visits are coming fromI like StatCounter, and for different reasons I also like Google Analytics. They are gradually re-opening signups.My traffic has been a little high this week, but nothing that raises any red flags. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
