I'm not sure if this post belongs here or in the Executive Lounge because I am furious.
Some website (which will remain anonymous) linked to me and drove a substantial amount of clicks a few days ago. I found the page linking to me and it was their sales pitch page trying to encourage me to advertise on their site. They intentionally sent a whole bunch of traffic from this webpage, knowing that I (a curious minded SEO lover) would find the linked page and view their sales pitch.
Sure, its clever and I give kudos to that. But now, all analytics for the site are thrown way off. Any SEO programs and efforts done will be inaccurate unless I go through the tedious task of constantly deleting those numbers when doing an analysis. Nothing I hate more than murky data.
I just needed to vent. Anyone else experience anything like this?
