DNF$: 3,214 Location: vancouver | What to do with BOT traffic? 97,591 hits/day I have a domain with seemingly usless Bot traffic. It gets hit about 100,000 times per day and generates no revenue.
1) Is there anything that can be done with the bot traffic?
2) Is there any way to stop the bot traffic so the domain can actually be put to use?
Help! :sad_smile:

2- are they all (or some) unique ip adresses?
3- have you checked out the domainhop.com program? (which pays guaranteed $4/1000 uniques no matter what)

Country: | Re: What to do with BOT traffic? 97,591 hits/day if it's just one bot from a specific ip, ban it... or you can stop all bots from crawling your domain by inserting the line below into your html; Quote: |
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nocache,noarchive,nofollow">
| and no program pays for bot' hits... all they do is suck your bandwidth, and it's pretty easy to tell apart a bot from a human. bots identify themselfs as "bots" so there are no tricks or gimmicks.

DNF$: 470 Location: Spain | Re: What to do with BOT traffic? 97,591 hits/day Make a script that detects that hits, and send those bots a redirection header, redirect them to some huge file, or to their website, or to localhost

Country: | Re: What to do with BOT traffic? 97,591 hits/day I have similar domain (not so huge) - former FFA site. BOT will of course never bring You money. I changed the DNS to Sedos to protect my server from this empty load.
I could post it here for sale, like some people on this forum do: "Huge traffic domain 40,000 uniques/month, stable traffic for over 1 year, can not find good keywords, find it and you make a fortune, min. offer $1K, BIN $3K". Maybe some fish would buy it to later find out the domain makes just $5/month  |

DNF$: 3,214 Location: vancouver | Re: What to do with BOT traffic? 97,591 hits/day This domain has been on my server for 4 days and has received 615,574 hits (avg 150k per day). They come from from thousands of unique referrers around the world. They are all requesting the same filenames. Given the traffic pattern i think this is the result of a worm targeting the domain. This is an expired domain that I just registered. Perhaps the previous owner fell victim to a virus which turned his server into a zombie bot?
If anyone can suggest something usefull to do with the traffic please let me know!

DNF$: 6,823 | Re: What to do with BOT traffic? 97,591 hits/day Not much if anything you can do with it, IMO.
For example, I got a traffic name thru dnf last yr with more than 20,000 visits/day (600,000 plus/mo) according to my stats.
To make a long story short, since it turned out it was almost all either BOT and/or Image Hosting/File Sharing traffic the PPC providers (several of them we used) refused to recognize the traffic as legit, and only on a real good day did it earn more than pocket change. That's right, 21,000 visits and $1/day or less was normal. Isn't that amazingly bad!
