  The last 2 days my stats have gone crazy with a Couple Thousand a day and says it’s from Yahoo Images. Normally I am between 100-200 a day. What would cause this? It’s probably false I am thinking. Had this blog close to 4 years.

  Any help would be appreciated/

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

  Congratulations!

  Is there a specific post that’s getting a lot of hits? It’s almost certain that Yahoo images has indexed one of your images very high. Take a look at the post that has the most traffic and see if one of your images there might be the one. Put the name for the image in Yahoo image search.

  Thanks raincoaster.

  Yes, yesterday was one post and today another post. The one today is http://ibdesignsusa.wordpress.com/2010/01/27/decorating-ideas-for-weddings-nautical-with-signal-flags/

  I did what you suggested and it showed one of the images as #1. What’s crazy is I wrote that a couple of years ago.

  Thanks for letting me know that it’s legit. Kathy

  No worries. IT’s strangely arbitrary what search engines will pick up or not.
