Taking down alphainventions
-
Bloggers should not have to go the trouble of looking up people to get themselves removed from someone else’s site, and send emails. This alphainventions is utter nonesense, and irritating that so many pointless ‘hits’ are generated without purpose.
-
Since I don’t “inflate” my hits by going to my own blog myself (I’m always logged in when I go to WordPress, which then does not count my visits, I am told), I guess alpha will make up for that.
-
Mr. Alpha, my blog also got caught by your site and I have already requested it to be removed via “contact” on your site. Please make sure my blog is not on your list anymore. Thanks.

I think taking down alphainventions is a bit strong although I think it is nothing great about it. It’s just a website of bot.
I personally think the WordPress support SHOULD provide configuration to filter out what traffics going to our own blog site statistics.
At the end, it is the cranking up inhuman blog stats that we are worry about. Right?
So we can do our normal blogging business with more realistic blog stats and let the alphainventions do what he like. Win-Win.

I would like to say 1st I have never got the thousands of hits I have seen claimed for Alpha but I have got some, also I have made some really nice contacts through Alpha, really nice, people stop being naiive you knew what you were doing when you submitted your site.

Not sure if I agree with the bad hype that AI is getting. Like the previous poster, I have received a few hits that have developed into subscribers through AI.

I didn’t have a clue anyone thought AlphaInventions was a bother until I saw this thread. I’ve been using it for some weeks now, and am perfectly satisfied.
In the first place, I regularly receive comments from readers who say, “I found you on AlphaInventions”.
As far as I know, bots don’t leave personal, substantive comments related to the subject of a post.In addition, I’ve made it a practice to subtract the AlphaInvention hits from my daily totals, just to keep track of what’s happening with the total of readers coming from referring links, searches, etc.
In the time I’ve been with AI, I’ve seen a steady, substantial increase in such readership. At the time I began using AI, I was averaging 50 page views per day – nothing in the blogosphere, but good enough for a writer.Now, my page views apart from AlphaInventions are ranging between 100 and 200 per day. Again, that’s nothing if you consider only numbers, but I’m absolutely happy with it and hope that continued exposure from AlphaInventions will help me continue that trend.
Again, I don’t have the average, but have been running between 1,000 and 2,000 AI hits per day for some time. If one percent of those folks stick around, it’s more than worth it.
Maybe I’m just not smart enough to see the problem here.

Ahmmm…. please calm down. I am not accusing him anything like that. I was just thinking of a way that both sides can do their own things without conflicts.
At the end, some people want their stats go up and some don’t. Simple as that. It’s a matter of choice.
-
I feel very weary of this AI program. I would really like my blog stats to be as accurate as possible. So it troubles me to think that I’m receiving a hit every time his page accesses mine. No one is gaining a substantive look at my blog unless they click through, so I’d prefer if I my site only recorded hits if the reader clicked through. I’ve asked to be removed, we’ll see if it actually happens.

Much as I don’t rate Alphainventions – when I put together the following post http://functioningalcoholic.wordpress.com/2009/02/07/alphainventions-a-trick-or-a-treat/
I got the most replies I’ve had to any of my posts (And 4,500 page views in a single evening). That kinda indicates that some people are pushing that pause button in time & actually reading the post.
