I got a lot of hits with a referrer of keywords-monitoring-your-success . com
Lots of different IP addresses – all in Brazil… And guess what : yes its the scum at Semalt up to their old tricks again.
Why can’t they just fuck off and stop pissing people off.
Re-write rules added to block them in future:
# Block access from semalt - its a rogue and serves no purpose
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} semalt\.com [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [F]
# Semalt under another name
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} keywords-monitoring-your-success.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} keywords-monitoring-your-success.com
RewriteRule .* - [F]
Oh and they’re also running free-video-tool . com
^ This ^
They’ve been showing up in my logs for a couple of weeks now, but I already knew it was another ‘SEO’ lamer doing whatever SEO lamers do, and have only recently bothered looking them up. And no, I didn’t visit those domains.
They’ve taken £100 out of my bank account with permission though I did sign up for the 99p a month seo ..
Doesn’t surprise me at all
