Referrer spam is a kind of spamdexing (spamming aimed at search engines). The technique involves making repeated web site requests using a fake referrer url that points to the site the spammer wishes to advertise. Sites that publicize their access logs, including referrer statistics, will then end up linking to the spammer's site, which will in turn be indexed by the search engines as they crawl the access logs. This benefits the spammer because of the free link, and also gives the spammer's site improved search engine placement due to link-counting algorithms that search engines use. Technical solutionsAs with e-mail spam, web site operators who receive unwanted referrer spam may respond using filtering and blocking. A simple solution to render this form of spamming ineffective is to prevent the search engine spiders from crawling the site logs by moving them to a non-public area such as a password-protected area, by using a robot exclusion file, or by appending the nofollow value to the links.

Rewards1 is a new site and now is the time to get involved, while it's still easy to get prizes and get in on the ground floor. Rewards1 destroys other similar sites like GamingLagoon because the offers credit faster and Rewards1 will not call you (unlike GamingLagoon).

Just be you and I guarantee you will find some one you wants to be your friend. No matter what keep your head held up high and remember that you are better that them so you shouldn't sink to their level. Try to surround your self with people who you feel comfortable with and don't try to fit in by being something that you are not. Be comfortable with the skin that you are in and thank God because your situation could be a lot worse... xoxoMiiS Yaya BaBii Answered by --<<*!*DaNgEr*!*>>-- - Tue Dec 15 17:43:45 2009 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Referrer Spam" See also:
