Traffic Skim on a LL?

MrYum · 2005-06-07, 02:03 PM

Have never run into this before...at least not that I've noticed...so thought I'd toss it out there for this knowledgable crew

Recently started submitting to a link site that looked pretty promising. Sure enough, they're accepting all my sites without a hitch...all good.

But, a week or so ago...took a peek at some of the listings and saw that they were re-directing to other sites. Ok, so either he's got a script problem...or he sometimes skims???

Just went though the link site looking at some of my listings again. Could not find a SINGLE freakin listing that actually goes to my listed site. ALL of them are re-directed to pay sites, other link sites, portals...etc..

Sure enough, a look at server logs shows not a single click from this link site...and he's got at least a couple dozen of my sites listed.

A board search here turned up no info on the link site domain...so no info there...

Anyone else run across something like this?

Useless · 2005-06-07, 02:13 PM

Would you mind sharing the name? PM would be fine.

XPorn · 2005-06-07, 02:21 PM

yea...what site is this???!?!???

Thx..
XPorn

Ya really.. who is it?

MrYum · 2005-06-07, 03:48 PM

Hi guys...thanks for the responses so far

I've been in this game long enough to know this didn't smell right

Tell ya what...being that I'm not usually a drama kinda guy...I'm gonna hold off a bit before outting this one. I'd like to get a few more responses first...

But so far, this smells pretty freakin bad...and IF it stays that way...he deserves to be outted

I gotta get back to writing text...will check back in a couple hours and spill the beans!

Useless · 2005-06-07, 03:54 PM

You fucking tease.

MrYum · 2005-06-07, 03:59 PM

Hey UW... PM coming your way...you too XPorn...and Ronnie

I understand you guys wanting to know ASAP...so PM for now

I'll keep it offboard til later...

MadMax · 2005-06-07, 04:11 PM

I'll take one of those PMs too....

Jel · 2005-06-07, 04:22 PM

Hell yeah I'll have one too Mr Yum please

(if you wouldn't mind of course)
Free site submitters don't need that shit, that's for sure.

TELL US WHO THE FUCKER IS!

Skimming is incredibly stupid on LLs.

MrYum · 2005-06-07, 06:06 PM

I've responded to those that asked for PM's

Hmm...or is that PMS

Anyway, back to the point...I have to back pedal but only slightly. Checked server logs on the other domains I've been using the past few weeks. I've gotten ONE hit on an interracial site. Followed the link in server stats to the ll in question and sure enough...on page six of the interracial section...my site is there...and the link does actually go to my site.

But, clicking links on the first page of that section (or any other section for that matter) go pretty much everywhere EXCEPT to the free site listed...this plain sucks

So, without further adieu...I give you assclown extraordinaire...

http://www.seek69.com/

I'll be sending an e-mail telling the webmaster to remove all my sites...as I'll be pulling down the recips.

Anyone who knows me...knows I really don't like to fuck with someone's biz, or start drama on a public board...but this shit just ain't right

Jeremy · 2005-06-07, 06:36 PM

You should have known that the jump.cgi was going to do you bugger all good.

You never know, he may ban you and then you'll have to worry about how to recoup that one hit.

MrYum · 2005-06-07, 10:30 PM

Yea Jeremy, I usually do steer away from jump links...but there are still some quality sites that use em.

Think it's time to go send the webmaster that mail telling him to pull my sites. Guess I'll risk losing that one hit

MrYum · 2005-06-07, 10:52 PM

Well, guess that shouldn't be a huge surprise...the mail addy on the site bounces...lol.

Anyone of the tech folks know what this means?

Ok...I've dorked around enough with this for one day...time to get some porn slung!

ronnie · 2005-06-08, 12:50 AM

Thanks MrYum, I just wanted to know in case I was stupid enough to have trades...

Sounds like the spam filters are on high.

Linkster · 2005-06-08, 06:29 AM

Run by these people - been around for a long time but definitely not vouching for them as I dont know them :
4bigcash.com and also did the pornstar academie thing a while back in Canada

MrYum · 2005-06-08, 11:27 AM

Thanks Linkster

Since I'm unable as of yet to reach the webmaster, I might just leave the links up and move on...usually the simplest solution

Though the concept of what this site is doing still chaps my hide ...I really don't like the idea of yanking links without notifying the webmaster first either...

And for obvious reasons...I've got plenty of other stuff to deal with...rather than trying to track this stuff down.

Oh well...always something fun and interesting in this biz

Useless · 2005-06-08, 11:31 AM

Replace his link with mine.

(or your own

)

Jel · 2005-06-08, 11:49 AM

Mr Yum - did he notify you he was running a skim? Would you have subbed had you realized he had a skim? You've tried to contact them, placed a thread here, and personally I'd give it a couple of weeks to account for vacations, offline stuff etc. and swap out the recip. You could also try mailing him from a different mailbox to see if that goes through.

I already submit sites to you...and you want ANOTHER recip...ya greedy bastard

Jel, nope he certainly didn't have anything listed anywhere saying he was skimming and definitely NOPE...I wouldn't have submitted there had I known in advance.

Very good ideas Jel...thanks

Will try from another mail box...then give it a couple weeks. By then, I should have a bit more time to deal with the issue anyway...make some final decisions at that time
