ANNOUNCEMENT TO THOSE WHO THINK IT'S FUNNY TO SCREW WITH MY SITE STATS
Now I KNOW you guys are doing this, because we rarely get more than 5 or 6 hits on the PBR site per day. :)
Actually, it *does* eff up the stats for me to get lots of hits that don't mean anything. I'm not looking at the stats for fun, but trying to figure out what sorts of things I need to put on that site to drive REAL traffic there because I would like to, say, SELL BOOKS and PAY RENT, and the bogus stats make that impossible.
(Not to mention it was funny the first couple of times, but after the eleventh, it's a little tiring. The best comedians know when to stop telling the joke.)
SO therefore I AM REQUESTING that every time you drop a bogus hit onto my site stats, you purchase something from Amazon.com through one of our Amazon referrer links. It doesn't have to be any of the books featured on the page like Rachel's memoir or the manga reviews, because if you access Amazon through one of our links, the referrer ID stays with you and credits us with a few pennies. Although Rachel would love it if you bought her memoir, which was published by a real publisher and everything, and is quite good to boot.
