Why is a porn site linking to my personal site?

Why the hell?

THE LINK BELOW CONTAINS EXPLICIT MATERIAL… bla bla bla:


First of all, you cannot post links here to porn sites that contain pictures like that, even if you provide a warning. Email a mod, and they will remove it for you.

Now then, do you mean there is a link om that page that goes to your website? Or does your start page now go to this page when you open a new browser page?

I’m sorry… :frowning: I’ll try to contact a mod about it.

Basically on that site is a list of text links that say the same thing and one of them links to mine. I have no idea why they would do that.

Might there be a porn site just a character or a domain-extension different from your site’s URL, and they made a typo?

One possible explanation: Does your personal site have by any chance access statistics pages which are vievable by the public? In this case some sites (usually porn ones) might get a link from your statistics pages to their site by so called referrer log spamming. One low-tech way to go about that is to temporarily put a link to your site on theirs, and repaetedly clicking on that link.

Porn sites often grab links and text off other pages as traps to pull in browsers.

I’ve had entire pages stolen from my web site and reused on sites that have no other function than to redirect wandering and misdirected web surfers, :mad: It’s just another way of spamming search engines with misleading information and getting themselves in search results.

They could be putting it there so that they’ll show up on search engines when someone types in your site’s name.
