  Why do I sometime get questionable referrer links in my stats? I see clicks from sites in my stats, I take a look at those sites to see why people are coming from that site, but I don’t see my blog’s address anywhere on their page.

  These referrers are very questionable and risky (sometime porn, sometime sites filled with pop-ups, Ads, etc).

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