And still you feel a burning need to have their site as your URL? Smells like astroturfing to me. I’m editing it out.

I have been using this site and their yellow pages china for a couple years now and I never have been spammed or even solicited by them. I think they have a great web site and its great to use them for free leads. Just thought I would leave a note….

They hit you with FIVE THOUSAND referer entries? And they figured that your reaction to that would be an uncontainable urge to uhm.. buy something from them? What part of their reptile brains are these guys thinking with?

The part of the brain we aren’t aware of, I guess. I just came across this post on Google today and we have no such referral spamming campaign to our knowledge. If anything, it must be one of our third party advertising associates that’s doing it… I’m in charge of all of the programming and technical details here, so anything would have had to go through me. I hate this stuff as much as you. :/

Hopefully you’ll respond to my email so I can get the details of this and figure out why it’s happening. I definitely don’t want us to become retard of the week for anyone else…
