I never tried to block the hits, it`s not even real traffic, it won`t show on any traffic tracking tools. And he keeps changing domains when hitting my website. I get around 100 visits per day from him.. I`m slowly thinking of switching to some other analytics tool pretty soon.
 
This incoming ga traffic message is so very clear: Who will write well about Secret.ɢoogle.com lifehacĸer.com and project behind in the blog (must be popular to avoid ga ban) will receive a free PR to millions most smartest, professional and payable google auditory. It contains all google's best payable clients, because they must control the effectiveness of spending marketing budgets through Google Analytics of course.
 
I just landed here because i saw 5 people browsing my site coming from here, blackhatworld.

Source was this thread.

I don't understand the situation nor what some russian hacker has to do with 5 people on this domain coming to my site on the topic of "hair loss".

Is there a link to my site on this page?

Can someone clarify what needs to be done on my end if anything?

A Russian spammer is spamming this page to your GA account with fake referral traffic that does not actually land on your server. He has done it with other legitimate websites before after they have published content about him (Example: vice.com - although it seems that they were aware it would happen beforehand and did it consciously). He usually does this to promote his own search engine. The spam will not harm your website at all but you might want to block it in GA if you would like to have an understanding of your website's actual data.

I'm not trying to shamelessly promote a website but you can read more about it with instructions here: botcrawl com/blackhatworld-com-referral-spam/

If you want to block the fake referral traffic in GA I recommend you block the referral path or use a language filter. Don't block blackhatworld.com altogether.

I know one person used contact form marketing 2 weeks before the Election to message about 35 million people. The same tools people use for marketing their services, are also being used to market their politics, charities and causes.

Thanks for sharing. So useful
 
If you enable google analytic's built in spam filter it'll automatically disregard any "visits" originating from this so that it's not tainting your analytics data.

That only works for bots and spiders. Unless you're speaking of user-made filters.

First time I saw this, I laughed so hard :D
 
I really love what this guy is doing, its stupid and annoying but the creativity is on top.

He now links on this thread, seen in several of my sites. lol
 
To be honest I would be more worried about my rankings - having a link to my site coming from "black hat world". We learned the hard way how heavy Google penalizes when you have any association with "black hat" sites.
 
Oh come on! He is just needy for attention just like 16 years old girl. He has useless plugins for firefox you can google tham "ilovevitaly", he was trying to make money sending people to aliexpress with no luck. He is just looser and trying to get some attention.
He is starting to SPAM from BHW to get some more attention and right now he is probably jacking off on this post. He is just a spammer he is not a creative marketing specialist. He can feel safe in Russia but a lot of hackers are getting arrested when they are going on vacation in Europe or America. So just relax and wait until he is going get it...
 
Yep, we're aware of the situation and we've been inundated with a huge amount of requests from website owners saying "there's a link to our site *somewhere*, please remove it! asap!!! It's hurting our site!!"
They're not real visits so you can't block them with things like htaccess - it's a measurement protocol exploit. There's loads of articles around discussing what's causing it and suggestions on filtering:

Will close this to keep it all on one thread here:

Yes. That happens. That's why we rank so badly..
