just over the last half of this month... Number of Views has risen...
This is all very confusing to us and so many Views from Russia as well...
This from a fan in upper Europe... 
Thank you good viewers from our Crypt (in the States)....

DeleteYes, all we have are a couple of fans...
DeleteOver the last week or so I am getting hundreds of non-humans views from Russia
ReplyDeleteI have learned : It doesn't affect your blog. They are not real visits, it is called referrer spam or it could be the Yandex crawler. Don't click on the links, that is the only reason it exists is to get you to click on the links. The Blogger stat system will eventually recognize it as spam and will remove the links and visits from your stats. Also, it doesn't affect your ranking

The FBI warned the Clinton campaign that it was a target of a cyberattack last March, just weeks before the Democratic National Committee discovered it had been penetrated by hackers it now believes were working for Russian intelligence, two sources who have been briefed on the matter told Yahoo News.
Wow...!!
Delete.. we seldom follow the news....
I always wondered about those Russia views that I would get so many of.
ReplyDeleteHappening to me as well... Used to maybe 100-200 views per day, then all of a sudden there's over a thousand in one day. I HAVE clicked a Yandex link though, and nothing happened (at least nothing I'm aware of).
