For the past two or three weeks, I’ve been getting the same search query over and over in my referrer logs. Day in, day out, it’s always there. Today, there were four hits. In the past, there have been eight or nine. Which is surprising, since this phrase most definitely does not appear anywhere on my website. (I won’t say what that phrase is, since that would probably just increase the hits, but I will say it’s disturbingly pornographic and involves a not particularly healthy love of family.) I can’t figure out why it keeps showing up. If it’s yet another form of referrer spam, it’s not very good spam. I doubt anyone’s generating hits for their website by creating fake anonymous search queries to mine. And the alternative, that someone out there is so desperate for this sort of link that they’ll come to my website just to see the words in close proximity to one another (and they’ll do so over and over again), doesn’t seem altogether likely either. I don’t know that I want to do this, but is there any way to block specific search referrals?
