  I want to undo this option that has been done, since I have left the page, I can’t unspam it.
  The site that I said was spam was novelupdates.com

  Any help resolving this issue will be great, Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, If you marked them as spam and then left the page, it’s not possible to revert.

  @whatevertranslations, just adding this in case it’s helpful – i did this once too, and while it’s not possible to revert, from what I was told marking a referrer as “spam” just means you won’t see that referrer itemized in your stats “referrals” section anymore. It hides that particular referrer from you, but it does nothing to the referrer itself.

  So your referrer’s links to you are not blocked, as I first assumed, you will still get those hits and they will still be counted in your views totals…

  @whatevertranslations You could post into this thread to see if Staff will unblock that referrer for you. No guarantee though. Best wishes

  Hi there,

  I don’t see any blocked referrers on your site, so maybe there just haven’t recently been any visitors from that site to generate referrer stats.
