Spam Words Google Analytics

This website is a blog and it is related to exam results at above image you can see the 3 url’s which i have pointed out. These are the spam url’s which will not effect your website but they will effect your analytics.

Spam Url’s Details

  1. At first URL you will see “bcia.php” which is really a page in your host and you should delete it. If you check this page you will find this is fulfilled with spam mailing and your host provider will suspend your account. So go to your host panel move to file manager delete those file’s and folder’s which are irrelevant.
  2. At Second URL you can see this is a porn URL which came from “youporn” website. If your website is not about pornographic material than you should take care of it. It can effect your referral link’s and you know Google what they can do to your site.
  3. Third one is something which should not be in list as i dont think this URL is related to my content but please do not click or check as we use analytics daily and we know which referrals are good for us and which is not.
