Odd traffic spike


July 28th, 2006 - 14:29 | 1 comment

My website hits went through the roof on Tuesday:

Odd Spike

I have no idea why this happened. Technorati isn’t suggesting I was linked to by anybody with major traffic, all the hits were to the front page rather than any specific article, and I didn’t actually post anything during the day. Given that hits on my feed went up by a similar percentage I’m guessing it was some kind of insane bot, although the disparity between unique and total visitors doesn’t really tie up with that. Dunno.

    I was reviewing my stats the other day, and i noticed a unusual spike. The number of hits was not a lot higher than normal.. however the number of kb was 2098531 which is 2GB, all at 3pm on the 26th of June. I can only assume i transferred a large file via my website, but i really have no idea whatsoever!
