Do you think a competitor or someone who dislikes you might have linked to you with that link text?

I can't imagine a competitor doing that, b/c my site would be considered small and is about a health related issue, particularly geared toward kids. There aren't any medical terms that are clinical that might be thought of as porn... and the big guys in my area are health professionals. I might grab myself a standalone pc that I can dump and do some searches dialup for free p*rn and my url...?

Log spamming probably. Where did the hits from that term come from? Bet you don't come up for those terms in a SE

Me again... one more question about this. My url has the word kids in it so as far as me typing in my domain and "free p*rn"... I don't want the fbi after me for being a sicko LOL! So I was looking at my "links from external pages" and there are two sites in there that are completely in Japanese! I can tell they have something to do with homes - completely unrelated to my topic. There would be no way for me to see my site, much less email the owners about it b/c I can't even read the site..

I've taught myself how to do these sites, so I'm not in the league most of you are in.. is there any way I can ban a site from linking to me? I believe the answer is no... correct? I would love to somehow get those 2 sites to not be able to access mine with a link, but that sounds pretty much impossible?

Thanks for helping!

They are probably not linking to you at all, just log spamming. You can read more about it at [google.com...]

Hiya Katherinez!
I am far from an expert as well, but perhaps others in here could suggest how to read the Referrer Header information of browsers coming onto your site, and redirect or give a page not found if the Referrer information contains particulars of the sites you do not want referring to your site.
Hope it helps :) I think it can be done, I just don't know how to do it. Perhaps some research on referrer headers!

If you want to understand more than you ever wanted to understand about your website's plight. . . AND IF you have thick skin (the author pulls no punches and his posts are peppered with expletives) . . . then I suggest you read Incredibill's blog at Blogspot. It's a real eyeopener about the tactics used by all manner of %#$^*( and %^#%#(*W&%*! (Bill's words :)

Not too hard to figure out Incredibill's URL at Blogspot.

It may be worth to carefully look into your webserver's raw logs to get an answer to the following:

-1- where are these coming from? Are they real referrals from other sites and search engines, or did you just see some sort of log spamming?
-2- do they just see your innocent content and won't get what they are after?
-3- do they request page URLs that are not yours, and get a "404-page-not-found", because they are not there?
-4- do they request page URLs that are not yours, but get them served by your server with a "200-here-you-have-it", because someone else has uploaded that stuff onto your account?

Kind regards,
